0:00:14 > 0:00:17APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:00:22 > 0:00:25Thank you very much. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong.
0:00:25 > 0:00:28Welcome to Pointless, the quiz show that puts obscure knowledge to the test.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30Let's meet today's players.
0:00:34 > 0:00:39- Couple number one.- Hello, I'm Sue. This is my dad, Peter, and we're from Derbyshire.
0:00:39 > 0:00:43- Couple number two.- Hi, I'm Lee. This is Ben. We're long-term friends.
0:00:43 > 0:00:49- Couple three.- Hi, Alexander. I'm Martyn. This is Kayleigh, a work colleague, from Bridgend, Wales.
0:00:49 > 0:00:55- And couple four.- All right? I'm Charlie. This is my dad, Kevin. We're from Hornchurch in Essex.
0:00:55 > 0:00:56Thanks very much. Today's contestants.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03Thanks, we'll find out more about you throughout the show as it goes along.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05That leaves one more person to introduce.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09More obscure than a Beatles' B-side he's heard of but you haven't.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11It's my Pointless friend, Richard.
0:01:11 > 0:01:12Hiya!
0:01:12 > 0:01:14Hi, everyone. Hiya.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20- Afternoon.- Good afternoon.- How are you?- Very well, thank you.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22We've got a couple of returning pairs today.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25You can tell, sometimes. Charlie was getting a bit cocky there.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27- Yeah.- We had a bit of Cockney.
0:01:27 > 0:01:31- Cocky and Cockney? All right? - All right? That's a first.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34- That's a Hornchurch greeting. - Apologies!- No, it's good.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37Hey, you're back on the show. Do whatever you want!
0:01:37 > 0:01:38Within reason.
0:01:38 > 0:01:43Lovely show today. First question, particularly, is a nice one.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47First one, if you know about the subject, you can go very deep into it. Get very good answers.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50But I think everyone will be able to have a good go at the first one.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52Good stuff. Thanks, Richard.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55All our questions have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58Our contestants need to find the obscure answers those 100 didn't get.
0:01:58 > 0:02:03Everyone's looking to find a pointless answer, one none of our 100 people gave,
0:02:03 > 0:02:07and each time that happens, we'll add 250 quid to today's jackpot.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09Now, Ed and Alan didn't win the jackpot last time,
0:02:09 > 0:02:11so we add another £1,000 to that.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15So today's jackpot starts off at £2,750.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21OK. If everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29In this first round, I'll take an answer from each of you.
0:02:29 > 0:02:34But there's no conferring. The pair with the highest score at the end of the round will be eliminated.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36OK. Our first category today is...
0:02:39 > 0:02:43Comedy actors. Decide in your pairs who's going first and who's second?
0:02:43 > 0:02:46And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51OK. The question concerns...
0:02:55 > 0:02:57TV sketch show actors. Richard?
0:02:57 > 0:03:00In a moment, Xander's going to show you a list of four TV sketch shows.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02We need you to tell us the name of any actor or actress
0:03:02 > 0:03:05who's appeared in seven or more episodes of the shows you're about to see.
0:03:05 > 0:03:10Seven or more episodes of any of these shows according to IMDb.
0:03:10 > 0:03:11Very best of luck to everybody.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15So, as Richard mentioned, we'll now put up four TV sketch shows.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19They will remain up throughout the round. All the way up and back down the line.
0:03:19 > 0:03:23You just have to name any actors or actresses who've appeared in seven or more episodes.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26OK. So here are our sketch shows.
0:03:32 > 0:03:33I'll read those again.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38Sue, welcome back to the show.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40- You did so well last time. - Thank you.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43We had one of the lowest scores of the whole show that was yours.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46Stevenage, you came up with their home ground.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48- Yes.- Remind us what you do, Sue.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50I'm a retired modern languages teacher.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53Excellent. Good stuff. What were your languages?
0:03:53 > 0:03:56- French and Spanish.- OK. Good stuff.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58How do you feel about these TV sketch shows, Sue?
0:03:58 > 0:04:02I think I only know the most obvious ones.
0:04:02 > 0:04:09I'm going to go with The Fast Show and say Paul Whitehouse.
0:04:09 > 0:04:10Paul Whitehouse, says Sue.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14Is that right, and if so, let's see how many people said it.
0:04:15 > 0:04:16It's right.
0:04:27 > 0:04:2818 for Paul Whitehouse.
0:04:28 > 0:04:30Good start, Sue, from The Fast Show, of course.
0:04:30 > 0:04:34- He's a genius, Paul Whitehouse. Genuinely.- He really is, yeah.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36A brilliant comic actor.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39Lee, welcome to the show. What do you do, Lee?
0:04:39 > 0:04:43I'm a food and beverage manager for a private house in Nottinghamshire.
0:04:43 > 0:04:48Hang on. So you buy the food and beverages at home, you mean?
0:04:49 > 0:04:51For a private house? What, your house?
0:04:51 > 0:04:53I manage my own larder.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Good. Someone's got to manage it.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57It's a mess. I'm telling you that out of kindness.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00What's a private house?
0:05:00 > 0:05:04Basically, a stately home. We do weddings, functions, things like that.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06Oh, I see! That makes sense.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09That's fun. How did you and Ben become friends?
0:05:09 > 0:05:13We met when we were travelling. I was living in Tenerife
0:05:13 > 0:05:15where I'd moved when I was 19.
0:05:15 > 0:05:20- And Ben worked in my local bar and we became mates.- Mm.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23- Good.- Still mates now.- Good stuff. Now, then,
0:05:23 > 0:05:25TV sketch shows. Is that good for you?
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Yeah, I know a few.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30I'm not sure how obscure.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32I'm going to go with Not The Nine O'Clock News
0:05:32 > 0:05:34and say Mel Smith.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36Mel Smith, says Lee. Let's see if that's right
0:05:36 > 0:05:39and if it is how many of our 100 said it.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42It is right.
0:05:42 > 0:05:4518 our only score so far.
0:05:53 > 0:05:57Consistent scoring so far. He was a big star on Not The Nine O'Clock News.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00He was about to become a bookie before he got that job.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03- That's right. His dad was a bookie. - That's right.- OK.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06Kayleigh, welcome to the show. Great to have you here.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08From Bridgend. What do you do, Kayleigh?
0:06:08 > 0:06:11I'm a check-out runner in a local supermarket.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14- That means you have to go and find out...- Yeah.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17So you know exactly where everything is in every aisle.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Yes, I have a walking map of my store in my head.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22- Yes.- Very good.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Let's have an actor or actress from one of these sketch shows.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28Trouble is, I don't watch TV sketch shows!
0:06:28 > 0:06:34The only one I know, well, it's going to be pretty obvious.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37David Walliams. That's the only one I know.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39David Walliams, says Kayleigh.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Is it right, and if it is, how many of our 100 said it?
0:06:43 > 0:06:44It's right.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49The only two... There we are. Only two in Little Britain.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55- And 56, there.- That's a pretty big score, isn't it?
0:06:55 > 0:06:59A big score. More than Mel Smith and Paul Whitehouse put together,
0:06:59 > 0:07:02for David Walliams. David Williams is his real name.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05Now, Kevin. Kevin, welcome back to the show.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08- Thank you.- Remind us what happened last time.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10We got to the head-to-head,
0:07:10 > 0:07:15and we met the heady mix of caviar and Nooky Bear.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18- Yeah, you were whipped!- We were, absolutely.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21- How do you feel about this board? - Yeah, not too bad.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24Not The Nine O'Clock News is more my sort of time frame.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Pamela Stephenson.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Pamela Stephenson. Let's see if that's right
0:07:28 > 0:07:31and if it is, how many of our 100 people said it?
0:07:32 > 0:07:33It is right.
0:07:34 > 0:07:3820 is what Mel Smith got. Let's see what Pamela Stephenson got.
0:07:44 > 0:07:4525.
0:07:45 > 0:07:50- Yeah, a big name recognition. She appeared in Strictly Come Dancing as well.- Ah, yeah.
0:07:50 > 0:07:51Married to Billy Connolly.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54Half-way through the round. Let's look at the scores.
0:07:54 > 0:07:5618 the best score of that pass. Sue, very well done.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00Peter and Sue looking the stronger for that. Up to 20 with Lee and Ben.
0:08:00 > 0:08:0225, Kevin and Charlie.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05And 56, Kayleigh and Martyn.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08A bit of pressure on you, Martyn, to find a nice low score.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11Can the second players please take their places at the podium.
0:08:14 > 0:08:18- OK. Charlie.- Hiya.- All right?
0:08:18 > 0:08:20- All right, mate.- All right, yeah.
0:08:20 > 0:08:26Now, we are looking for actors or actresses who have appeared in seven or more episodes of these shows.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30You're on 25. The high scorers on 56, Martyn and Kayleigh.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32First, remind me what you do.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34I'm a student at Nottingham Trent University.
0:08:34 > 0:08:38- Quantity surveying. - Exactly. Spot on.
0:08:38 > 0:08:39What have you learnt so far?
0:08:39 > 0:08:42How to measure!
0:08:42 > 0:08:45And use a calculator.
0:08:45 > 0:08:49- Two vital, vital things. - Life skills!
0:08:49 > 0:08:51Now, OK. Charlie. Charlie.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55You want to be scoring 30 or less to avoid becoming the new high scorers.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57What do you think?
0:08:57 > 0:08:59Well, I wasn't feeling good about this,
0:08:59 > 0:09:02but I'm thinking outside the box.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05The narrator of Little Britain, Tom Baker.
0:09:05 > 0:09:09Oh, he's good. He's good. There is your red line.
0:09:09 > 0:09:13You're the first person to pick somebody not from the main ensemble cast, as well.
0:09:13 > 0:09:17Very shrewd. Below that red line with Tom Baker, through to Round Two.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20Let's see if Tom Baker's right, and how many people said it.
0:09:22 > 0:09:23It is right.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28Through you go.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32One person said Tom Baker!
0:09:34 > 0:09:38Very well done. 26 your total. Our best score so far.
0:09:38 > 0:09:42Well played, Charlie. You were good on the last show. You're doing well again.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44Tom Baker is the narrator, as you say.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46Left school at 15 to become a monk.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48- He didn't!- He was a monk for six years.
0:09:48 > 0:09:54And he was Doctor Who. That's the other thing I know about him.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56Yep. Now, then, Martyn.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58Martyn, you're the high scorers.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00Do you work in the same store in Bridgend?
0:10:00 > 0:10:03Yes, I'm one the check-out colleagues.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05Do you know what, somebody was...
0:10:05 > 0:10:08Someone was filling their bags - it was me!
0:10:08 > 0:10:12I was filling our bags and got home, a couple of weeks ago,
0:10:12 > 0:10:15and found that I'd also packed the little spongy thing that the...
0:10:15 > 0:10:19That the girl on the check-out was using.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21I had that the other day. I was at a supermarket.
0:10:21 > 0:10:26Exactly the same thing. It wasn't my fault. I had the cash register!
0:10:26 > 0:10:30In my bag. There was about four and a half grand in it!
0:10:30 > 0:10:33- Not bad.- I thought, "I'm too embarrassed to take that back."
0:10:33 > 0:10:35I was so...
0:10:36 > 0:10:38Martyn, what are you going to go with?
0:10:38 > 0:10:42- Right. OK.- You're the high scorers. So we need a low score.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44A lot of work to do here.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46There's a couple I've got in mind.
0:10:46 > 0:10:50It's from The Fast Show. I think his name is Mark Williams.
0:10:50 > 0:10:54Mark Williams, says Martyn. No red line for you as the high scorers.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57Is Mark Williams right, and if it is, how many people said it?
0:10:59 > 0:11:0318 is our only score from The Fast Show so far.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05That was Paul Whitehouse. Where will Mark Williams end up?
0:11:08 > 0:11:11Mark Williams. Very, very well...remembered.
0:11:11 > 0:11:15Is the word I'm after. 58, Martyn, is your total.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17Well played, Martyn. The instantly recognisable Mark Williams.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20He does "Suit you, sir", "I'll get my coat."
0:11:20 > 0:11:23He was also Arthur Weasley in the Harry Potter films.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26Ben. Welcome to the show. What do you do, Ben?
0:11:26 > 0:11:29I'm a project manager for a marquee company.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32Oh, that's fun. Projects. Does that mean you go out on site?
0:11:32 > 0:11:34You're there, putting up the marquees.
0:11:34 > 0:11:38- Yes.- OK. You're on 20. The high scorers on 58 are Martyn and Kayleigh.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41You want to score 37 or less with this.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44Um, I will go with The Fast Show
0:11:44 > 0:11:46and John Thompson.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48John Thompson, says Ben.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50John Thompson. Here is your red line.
0:11:50 > 0:11:51Get below that, you're in Round Two.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54How many people said John Thompson?
0:11:56 > 0:12:00Well, a lot of people closely watching this result.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02John Thompson among them, I should think.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Two is what Mark Williams got.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06One is what John Thompson got!
0:12:06 > 0:12:08One. Very well done. 21 your total.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13Not sure how pleased about that John will be.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15Again, everyone recognises John Thompson.
0:12:15 > 0:12:20They know him from Cold Feet and all sorts of things. But with The Fast Show, has he been in seven shows.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22It's got a big cast, The Fast Show.
0:12:22 > 0:12:26- He was brilliant in that. He was on Celebrity Pointless, as well. - Certainly was.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29I used to be in the same business as Ben, way back when.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32I used to have a marquee that I hired out. And a big top that I hired out, as well.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35I had to get out of it in the end. It was just "too tense"!
0:12:35 > 0:12:37LAUGHTER
0:12:37 > 0:12:40That is brilliant!
0:12:42 > 0:12:44You made that up in real time, as well.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46We haven't taken a... We haven't taken half an hour.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49Amazingly, I haven't sat down with my writers.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52It's the kind of stuff I can do.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55I tell you, it's a gift, but it's a curse, sometimes!
0:12:55 > 0:12:59- To come up with material of that quality.- Yeah, in that kind of time.
0:12:59 > 0:13:02- Brilliant. Thank you very much. - Thank you.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05- Now, Peter.- Yes. - Peter, you're looking pained.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07I am looking pained!
0:13:07 > 0:13:11Oh, Peter. Now, did you watch any of those?
0:13:11 > 0:13:13Yes. Only one, though.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15OK. Well that makes it easy, in a way.
0:13:15 > 0:13:22Yeah, but the popular answers, the ones I know, are not going to leave us in the game.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24I'm going to say Jo Brand.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Jo Brand. OK. Jo Brand.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30Now, Martyn and Kayleigh are on 58. You're on 18.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33You want to score 39 or less with this.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36There's your red line, Peter. Let's hope Jo Brand gets you below it.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38Is it right, Jo Brand?
0:13:39 > 0:13:43No, bad luck, Peter. I'm sorry. That's an incorrect answer.
0:13:43 > 0:13:47Scores you the maximum 100 points and takes your total to 118.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49- Sorry.- Sorry, Peter,
0:13:49 > 0:13:52she hasn't been in any episodes of any of those, I'm afraid, Jo Brand.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55- Right.- Before we look at the pointless answers,
0:13:55 > 0:13:58let's go through some of the smaller scoring answers you could have got.
0:13:58 > 0:14:03Tom Baker on Little Britain. But Anthony Head, who plays the prime minister, scored one point.
0:14:03 > 0:14:08- And Ruth Jones would have scored you two points,- Myfanwy.- From Gavin and Stacey.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11Yep. On The Fast Show,
0:14:11 > 0:14:12a few low-scoring answers.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15John Thompson one, Mark Williams, two.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18Simon Day would have scored two. Charlie Higson, two.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21Caroline Aherne would have scored one point.
0:14:21 > 0:14:22Been on lots of episodes of that.
0:14:22 > 0:14:26Let's take a look at the pointless answers in a few of these categories.
0:14:27 > 0:14:32Colin McFarlane, General Pierce in Torchwood, has been in lots of episodes of The Fast Show.
0:14:32 > 0:14:36David Foxxe plays Dickie Bubble in Little Britain.
0:14:36 > 0:14:40The great Paul Putner. Steve Furst, also from Little Britain, both those were pointless.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44Phil Cornwell from Dead Ringers, one of the main impressionists,
0:14:44 > 0:14:46and Kevin Connolly and Mark Perry,
0:14:46 > 0:14:49all those pointless. Rhys Thomas, in many episodes of The Fast Show.
0:14:49 > 0:14:54Robin Driscoll, The Fast Show, he co-created Mr Bean.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57That's some money, isn't it?
0:14:57 > 0:14:59- Yeah.- Mr Bean money.- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02Rory Jennings from The Fast Show and Steve Benham, Stirling Gallacher
0:15:02 > 0:15:05from Little Britain, all pointless answers.
0:15:05 > 0:15:06Well done if you said any of those.
0:15:06 > 0:15:10Let's take a look at the top answers that most of our 100 said.
0:15:20 > 0:15:24Thanks. At the end of our first round, the pair heading home with their high score of 118,
0:15:24 > 0:15:26I'm so sorry, it's Peter and Sue.
0:15:26 > 0:15:2918. Lovely low score in the first pass.
0:15:29 > 0:15:32- Peter, you had to take a punt there. - Dreadful.
0:15:32 > 0:15:33Yeah, I'm sorry.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35- Did you know any of those other answers?- No.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37That's some consolation, at least.
0:15:37 > 0:15:43I'm sorry we have to say goodbye. Thanks so much for playing. Sue and Peter. Lovely contestants.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47But for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for Round Two.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55So now only three pairs remain.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58That was a great round. Lovely low scoring from all three pairs.
0:15:58 > 0:16:01So very well done. Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03Our category for Round Two is...
0:16:07 > 0:16:10Literary characters. Decide in your pairs who's going first and who's second.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13Whoever's first, please step up to the podium.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18OK. And the question concerns...
0:16:20 > 0:16:22Literary couples, Richard.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25We'll show you six literary couples on each pass.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28Just tell us in which novel did they first appear, please.
0:16:28 > 0:16:3112 novels to guess at home. Very best of luck.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34Thanks. The novels in which these literary novels first appeared.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36And we've got...
0:16:50 > 0:16:52I'll read those one last time.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07Six literary couples.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09Now, then, Lee.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11- How do we feel about this?- Not bad.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13I know half of them.
0:17:14 > 0:17:18I think I'll go with Philip and Estella
0:17:18 > 0:17:20and say Great Expectations.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23Great Expectations says Lee
0:17:23 > 0:17:24for Pip and Estella.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27Is it right, and if so, how many people knew that answer?
0:17:29 > 0:17:30It's right.
0:17:37 > 0:17:40Not a bad start, Lee. 33 for Great Expectations.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42Good start. By Charles Dickens.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45He had to write that weekly rather than monthly, as he normally did,
0:17:45 > 0:17:50to save his magazine. His magazine was doing badly - All The Year Round, the name of his magazine.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52So he had to write it super-quick.
0:17:52 > 0:17:55- He did very well under pressure. - Not bad, is it?- Not bad at all.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58Not a bad book. Well done, Charles!
0:17:58 > 0:18:01- Not bad.- If you're watching, well done!
0:18:01 > 0:18:02Good. Kayleigh.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05Kayleigh, how do you find this board?
0:18:05 > 0:18:07Better than the last one!
0:18:07 > 0:18:09I'm not too bad with these.
0:18:09 > 0:18:14I'll probably go with Max de Winter and the second Mrs de Winter,
0:18:14 > 0:18:17cos it was made into a film and it was called Rebecca.
0:18:17 > 0:18:20Rebecca, says Kayleigh. Rebecca, for the de Winters.
0:18:20 > 0:18:22Is it right, and if it is, how many people said Rebecca?
0:18:23 > 0:18:27It is right. 33 our only score so far.
0:18:27 > 0:18:28Will you go lower than that?
0:18:28 > 0:18:30Yes, you will!
0:18:30 > 0:18:31Quite a long way lower.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33Very well done, Kayleigh.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41Yes, played by Laurence Olivier and Joan Fontaine in the film. Rebecca.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44Thanks very much. Now, Charlie.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46Charlie, how are you feeling about this?
0:18:46 > 0:18:50This was the one subject I did not want to come up.
0:18:50 > 0:18:55OK. Do you want to maybe have a guess at any of them?
0:18:55 > 0:18:57Come down the board?
0:18:57 > 0:19:03Well, I would have said The Chronicles of Narnia for Rebecca,
0:19:03 > 0:19:05so I'm glad that was taken!
0:19:05 > 0:19:07I did know Great Expectations.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10I believe the clue is in the name
0:19:10 > 0:19:14of Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16I'm going to say Fifty Shades of Grey.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19Fifty Shades of Grey, says Charlie.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22Let's see if that's right for the bottom one. Is it right? How many people said it?
0:19:23 > 0:19:25It's right!
0:19:29 > 0:19:33Very well done, Charlie. Once again you reason your way out of a corner.
0:19:33 > 0:19:3724 for Fifty Shades of Grey.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39Very good answer. E.L.James. How did your audition go?
0:19:39 > 0:19:43- I'm waiting to hear. I got a call-back.- Did you?
0:19:43 > 0:19:45- Yeah.- Terrific. Who are they thinking of for Christian Grey?
0:19:49 > 0:19:50A-ha!
0:19:50 > 0:19:52Let's go through the rest of these answers.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55Do you know that top one, Dexter Mayhew and Emma Morley?
0:19:55 > 0:20:00- A more recent book.- It's that book that everyone's read that was made into a film
0:20:00 > 0:20:03which is by David Nicholls.
0:20:03 > 0:20:06- And it's called? - It's called...One Day.
0:20:06 > 0:20:09One Day. Absolutely. Scored four points. Terrific answer.
0:20:09 > 0:20:10Best answer on the board.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13- Rhett Butler and Scarlett O'Hara. - Gone With the Wind.- Yep.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Much bigger score at 59.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18- George Emerson and Lucy Honeychurch. - A Room With A View.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20A Room With A View. Absolutely right. Well played.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22Five points if you said that at home.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25Thanks. Half-way through the round. Let's take a look at those scores.
0:20:25 > 0:20:29Ten, the best score of that pass, Kayleigh. Well done.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31Then up to 24 where we find Charlie and Kevin.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33He's good, isn't he, Kevin?
0:20:33 > 0:20:36- Unbelievable.- Very, very good.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39Then up to 33, where we find Lee and Ben.
0:20:39 > 0:20:44Not miles ahead, but Ben, we need a low score from you in the next pass. Otherwise we'll be saying goodbye.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47Can the second players please take their places at the podium?
0:20:49 > 0:20:53OK. We'll put six more literary couples on the board.
0:20:53 > 0:20:55Here they are. We have got...
0:21:08 > 0:21:10I'll read those one last time.
0:21:24 > 0:21:30We are looking for the names of the first novels to feature these literary couples. Kevin?
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Yes.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Charlie's left you in pretty good stead, there.
0:21:34 > 0:21:38- Yes.- You're on 24. The high scorers on 33 are Ben and Lee.
0:21:38 > 0:21:42If you can score eight or less, you'll avoid becoming the new high scorers.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Unfortunately... I can answer one.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47But it's a bit obvious, I think.
0:21:47 > 0:21:51And that's only cos I really liked Kate Bush when I was in my teens!
0:21:51 > 0:21:54Wuthering Heights - Heathcliff and Cathy Earnshaw.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56Wuthering Heights, says Kevin.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58Wuthering Heights. Here's your red line.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01If you can get below that, you're through to the next round.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Is Wuthering Heights right? How many people said it?
0:22:04 > 0:22:06It is right.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15Yes, that is a high score. Takes your total up to 77.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18A big score. When Kate Bush got to number one with Wuthering Heights,
0:22:18 > 0:22:22she was the first woman in chart history to have a number one single
0:22:22 > 0:22:24that she wrote and performed herself.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26Thanks, Richard. Now, Martyn.
0:22:26 > 0:22:30- Yes.- You're on ten. A lovely low score from Kayleigh.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32- She did all right.- She did very well indeed.
0:22:32 > 0:22:36Kevin and Charlie are on 77. If you can score 66 or less,
0:22:36 > 0:22:38you're in the head-to-head.
0:22:38 > 0:22:42Much the same as Charlie, it wasn't a topic I fancied, literature.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44I tend not to read many novels or books.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47I've fallen lucky with this one, to be honest.
0:22:47 > 0:22:53Winston Smith and Julia is from Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56Nineteen Eighty-Four, says Martyn, for Winston Smith and Julia.
0:22:56 > 0:23:01If you get below that red line with Nineteen Eighty-Four, you're in the head-to-head.
0:23:01 > 0:23:03How many people said Nineteen Eighty-Four?
0:23:04 > 0:23:05It's right.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08You've done it. Very well done.
0:23:15 > 0:23:19Ten taking your total up to 20. Well done, Martyn. You're in the head-to-head.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22Well played, Martyn. Great work on podium two from both of you.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26Now, then. Ben.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28You're the last person to have this board.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31Do you fancy having a stab at any of these?
0:23:31 > 0:23:36- No!- OK.- I'm quite poor when it comes to this subject.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40The only one, if it's right,
0:23:40 > 0:23:46would be Fitzwilliam Darcy. Sense and Sensibility?
0:23:46 > 0:23:51Sense and Sensibility says Ben for Fitzwilliam Darcy and Elizabeth Bennett.
0:23:51 > 0:23:55You're on 33. The high scorers still, Kevin and Charlie on 77.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58So a score of 43 or less will see you into the next round.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00There's your red line.
0:24:00 > 0:24:03Is Sense and Sensibility right? How many people said it?
0:24:07 > 0:24:09Bad luck, Ben. I'm afraid an incorrect answer.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12Scores the maximum of 100 points.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14Takes your total up to 133.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17I think they might be the most famous literary couple of all.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19- Fitzwilliam Darcy and Elizabeth Bennett.- Yeah, I think so.
0:24:19 > 0:24:22It's not Sense and Sensibility, it's Pride and Prejudice.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24It was the Dashwood sisters in Sense and Sensibility.
0:24:24 > 0:24:29An amazingly low score. 26 for Mr Darcy and Elizabeth Bennett.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32The rest of these, you'll know a few of these.
0:24:32 > 0:24:33Edward Cullen and Bella Swan?
0:24:33 > 0:24:36That's probably less in your comfort zone.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39- Twilight.- Ah.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41A lot of people at home would have got that. 27 points.
0:24:41 > 0:24:44In fact, more people got that than Mr Darcy and Elizabeth Bennett.
0:24:44 > 0:24:49- Leopold and Molly Bloom. - That's um, James Joyce.
0:24:49 > 0:24:52- Ulysses.- Yep.
0:24:52 > 0:24:56Scored two points. Do you know the top one, Ralph de Bricassart and Meggie Cleary?
0:24:57 > 0:25:00Well done to anyone at home who said The Thorn Birds.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02Five points for The Thorn Birds.
0:25:02 > 0:25:04If anyone got all six of those, that's very impressive.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06Lots of different genres there.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09But 26 points for Mr Darcy?
0:25:09 > 0:25:10Extraordinary.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13- Colin Firth will be furious. - Yeah. Yeah, he will.
0:25:13 > 0:25:15"Did I get wet for nothing?", he'll say!
0:25:17 > 0:25:18Thanks very much, Richard.
0:25:18 > 0:25:23At the end of our second round, I'm afraid our losing pair is Ben and Lee on 133.
0:25:23 > 0:25:28Not a bad stab in the dark, but we say goodbye to you now. See you again next time.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31Ben and Lee, thanks very much for playing. Great contestants.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36But for the remaining two pairs, it's time for our head-to-head.
0:25:42 > 0:25:45Congratulations, Martyn and Kayleigh, Charlie and Kevin.
0:25:45 > 0:25:51You are one step closer to the final and a chance to play for our jackpot, which stands at £2,750.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58To decide who gets to play for that money, you'll now go head-to-head.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00The big difference is you may now confer.
0:26:00 > 0:26:03The first pair to win two questions will play for the jackpot.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05Best of luck. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14OK. Here's your first question. And it concerns...
0:26:18 > 0:26:20Famous Yorkshiremen.
0:26:20 > 0:26:24I think all Yorkshiremen consider themselves famous, by dint of being born in Yorkshire!
0:26:24 > 0:26:28But we'll show you five pictures of famous men born in the county of Yorkshire.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30Tell us the most obscure of these, please.
0:26:30 > 0:26:35Let's reveal our five famous Yorkies. Here they are. We have got...
0:26:47 > 0:26:49There we are. Five famous Yorkshiremen.
0:26:49 > 0:26:53Martyn and Kayleigh, you get to go first cos you've played best so far.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55- Right.- I only know A.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57I know A and C.
0:26:57 > 0:26:59I'm trying to remember what B is.
0:26:59 > 0:27:02He starred in... We'll have to go with C.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05- Yep.- We'll go with C.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08- It's Alan Bennett.- C, Alan Bennett.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10Alan Bennett say Martyn and Kayleigh.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13Charlie and Kevin. Talk us through the board.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16We know A, obviously Michael Parkinson.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19We know E, cos that's Harold Wilson.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21B is on the tip of my tongue.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23He's a wrestler and an actor.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25He was in Kes, but I can't think of his name.
0:27:25 > 0:27:28We'll have to go with E as Harold Wilson.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31- But it's hard to beat C. - OK. E, Harold Wilson.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34Martyn and Kayleigh say Alan Bennett for C.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37Is it right? If so, how many people said Alan Bennett?
0:27:39 > 0:27:40It's right.
0:27:49 > 0:27:5127 for Alan Bennett.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54Kevin and Charlie have gone for Harold Wilson, E.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57Is it right? How many people said Harold Wilson?
0:27:59 > 0:28:00It's right.
0:28:05 > 0:28:08As you suspected, Alan Bennett hard to beat there.
0:28:08 > 0:28:12Martyn and Kayleigh, well done. After one question you're up one-nil.
0:28:12 > 0:28:16Well played. Let's clear up. A, first, obviously Michael Parkinson but a very big scorer.
0:28:16 > 0:28:19Scored 85 points.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21Very impressive.
0:28:21 > 0:28:25Kevin, you're right about B. Used to be a wrestler, "Leon Arras, the man from Paris."
0:28:25 > 0:28:30He was in Kes. Done all sorts of adverts. All sorts of things. Brian Glover.
0:28:30 > 0:28:32- Yes.- Brian Glover.
0:28:32 > 0:28:3511 points. I'm sure everyone recognises him.
0:28:35 > 0:28:37But the name was tricky to come by.
0:28:37 > 0:28:41Now, D is a pointless answer.
0:28:41 > 0:28:44He's won five Oscars. Do you know who he is?
0:28:44 > 0:28:48- John Barry.- Yes. He did the Bond theme, Born Free, all sorts of things.
0:28:48 > 0:28:50John Barry, born in York.
0:28:50 > 0:28:54OK. Here's your second question and it concerns...
0:28:57 > 0:29:00- Ancient cities. Richard. - We'll give you five clues,
0:29:00 > 0:29:04each of which relates to a different ancient city. Can you name those cities, please. Good luck.
0:29:04 > 0:29:08OK. Let's reveal our five clues and here they are.
0:29:30 > 0:29:31I'll read those again.
0:29:51 > 0:29:54Five clues to ancient cities. Charlie and Kevin,
0:29:54 > 0:29:56you need to win this question to stay in the game.
0:29:56 > 0:29:57But you do get to go first.
0:29:58 > 0:30:00I think I know all of them but one.
0:30:00 > 0:30:03The one I think will be the lowest
0:30:03 > 0:30:06I'm not 100 per cent,
0:30:06 > 0:30:09but I will go for it.
0:30:09 > 0:30:12And say Machu Picchu, Inca city.
0:30:12 > 0:30:14Machu Picchu, the Inca city.
0:30:14 > 0:30:19Machu Picchu. Martyn and Kayleigh, talk us through the rest of the board if you can.
0:30:19 > 0:30:21If we can, yeah!
0:30:21 > 0:30:23Not sure of the first one.
0:30:23 > 0:30:28I think the lads might have that second one correct.
0:30:28 > 0:30:32Then it's Troy. We should know the Rome one, because we're recently back from Rome.
0:30:32 > 0:30:35And the last one's Babylon.
0:30:35 > 0:30:37So I'll take Troy. We'll take Troy.
0:30:37 > 0:30:40You say Troy, the wooden horse dragged through its gate. Troy.
0:30:40 > 0:30:42So we have Machu Picchu, we have Troy.
0:30:42 > 0:30:45Charlie and Kevin went for Machu Picchu.
0:30:45 > 0:30:48Is it right? Is it enough to get them through to the next question?
0:30:54 > 0:30:56It's a good score. 26. Very well done, Charlie.
0:31:00 > 0:31:0426 for Machu Picchu. Martyn and Kayleigh, that's what you have to beat with Troy.
0:31:04 > 0:31:08The ancient city which had a wooden horse dragged through its gate, according to legend.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11Is Troy right, and if it is, how many people said it?
0:31:13 > 0:31:15It is right. Have to beat 26.
0:31:15 > 0:31:17It's not going to. 69.
0:31:17 > 0:31:20Well done, Charlie and Kevin. That's what you needed to do.
0:31:20 > 0:31:23You're back in the game. After two questions, it's one all.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26I think you knew you were onto a loser. Charlie proves his worth again.
0:31:26 > 0:31:28Let's take a look through these now.
0:31:28 > 0:31:31You would have won the point with the one in modern Jordan
0:31:31 > 0:31:33used as the location for Indiana Jones.
0:31:33 > 0:31:35- Petra?- Yes, would have scored 11 points.
0:31:35 > 0:31:38The one at the bottom, absolutely right, Babylon.
0:31:38 > 0:31:41But that would have scored 59.
0:31:41 > 0:31:44There's not a single trace of the Hanging Gardens left anywhere.
0:31:44 > 0:31:47Not an archaeological trace of it.
0:31:47 > 0:31:50So only accounts of it remain.
0:31:50 > 0:31:51So no-one knows what they looked like?
0:31:51 > 0:31:55They've got an idea, from descriptions. They were terraced gardens, essentially.
0:31:55 > 0:31:57And the seaport of Ancient Rome.
0:31:57 > 0:32:00This is somewhere you can visit, the archaeological remains of it.
0:32:00 > 0:32:03It's about four miles upstream now. It's Ostia.
0:32:05 > 0:32:06Would have scored four points.
0:32:06 > 0:32:08Terrific answer if you got that. Well done.
0:32:08 > 0:32:11Thanks very much. So it comes down to a decider.
0:32:11 > 0:32:15Here's your third question. Whoever wins this goes into the final.
0:32:15 > 0:32:16It concerns...
0:32:19 > 0:32:21Champions' League winners. Richard?
0:32:21 > 0:32:24We'll show you five winners of the Champions' League but in anagram form.
0:32:24 > 0:32:27Unscramble them and pick the most obscure.
0:32:27 > 0:32:30Whoever does that goes into the jackpot round. Best of luck.
0:32:30 > 0:32:33OK. Let's reveal our five Champions' League winners in anagram form.
0:32:42 > 0:32:44I'll read those a second time.
0:32:52 > 0:32:55Martyn and Kayleigh, you go first this time.
0:32:56 > 0:32:58Right. OK.
0:32:58 > 0:33:00I don't know any of them cos I haven't got a clue.
0:33:02 > 0:33:03I know most of them.
0:33:03 > 0:33:08It's going with the one that's obviously... The least.
0:33:11 > 0:33:14The top one. Borussia Dortmund.
0:33:14 > 0:33:17Borussia Dortmund, say Martyn and Kayleigh.
0:33:17 > 0:33:18Borussia Dortmund.
0:33:18 > 0:33:22Charlie and Kevin. Talk us through the board, if you can.
0:33:22 > 0:33:24Chew them over a little bit.
0:33:24 > 0:33:27I was going to choose Borussia Dortmund.
0:33:27 > 0:33:29Got any others? We've got Liverpool.
0:33:32 > 0:33:35Real Madrid, as well.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37I guess we'll go with...
0:33:37 > 0:33:39Got the bottom one at all?
0:33:39 > 0:33:41No. Can't work it out.
0:33:41 > 0:33:43- Oh, yeah, Chelsea.- Chelsea.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45We'll go Bayern Munich - my urbane chin.
0:33:45 > 0:33:49You say Bayern Munich, my urbane chin.
0:33:49 > 0:33:51So Bayern Munich plays Borussia Dortmund.
0:33:51 > 0:33:53Or Borussia Dortmund plays Bayern Munich.
0:33:53 > 0:33:58Martyn and Kayleigh say Borussia Dortmund. Is it right? How many people said it?
0:33:59 > 0:34:01It is right.
0:34:06 > 0:34:08Five! Wow! Five
0:34:08 > 0:34:10for Borussia Dortmund.
0:34:16 > 0:34:19That's good. That's what you have to beat, Charlie and Kevin,
0:34:19 > 0:34:22with my urbane chin, Bayern Munich.
0:34:22 > 0:34:24Is it right? If so, how many people said it?
0:34:26 > 0:34:28It's right.
0:34:28 > 0:34:31Has to go down below five to win this point.
0:34:31 > 0:34:34It may do. Ooh! Ten!
0:34:37 > 0:34:41Very well played, Kevin and Charlie.
0:34:41 > 0:34:44But you've been pipped to it. After three questions,
0:34:44 > 0:34:48Martyn and Kayleigh, you are through to the final, two-one.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50A terrific head-to-head. Well played, both teams.
0:34:50 > 0:34:52Those are the best two answers, you've given us.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55Nothing you could have done against Borussia Dortmund.
0:34:55 > 0:35:00Red Admiral is a lovely anagram of Real Madrid. Scored 56.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02Viler polo, Liverpool.
0:35:02 > 0:35:04Would have scored 44.
0:35:04 > 0:35:07And as you worked out, Leaches is an anagram of Chelsea.
0:35:07 > 0:35:10That would have scored 68 points.
0:35:10 > 0:35:12- The biggest answer up there. - Thanks very much indeed.
0:35:12 > 0:35:16The pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head, Charlie and Kevin.
0:35:16 > 0:35:19But that doesn't reflect what a heroic performance you put in today.
0:35:19 > 0:35:22Very good indeed. Particular commendation to you, Charlie.
0:35:22 > 0:35:27Across the board you've shown yourself to be a fantastic opponent.
0:35:27 > 0:35:30Brilliantly played. It's been great having you on both shows.
0:35:30 > 0:35:32Charlie and Kevin. Fantastic contestants. Thanks.
0:35:35 > 0:35:38But for Martyn and Kayleigh, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:41 > 0:35:45Congratulations, Martyn and Kayleigh. You've beaten the competition
0:35:45 > 0:35:47and won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:35:53 > 0:35:56You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot.
0:35:56 > 0:35:59At the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £2,750.
0:36:04 > 0:36:07You've done incredibly well. Lovely scoring all the way through.
0:36:07 > 0:36:09An incredibly tight head-to-head, though.
0:36:09 > 0:36:12But you came through smiling. So well done.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15Kayleigh, not just at work in Bridgend, but also here,
0:36:15 > 0:36:17it turns out you know all the answers!
0:36:17 > 0:36:18- Yeah, right(!)- Very impressive.
0:36:18 > 0:36:22To win that money, all you have to do is find a pointless answer.
0:36:22 > 0:36:25First, find a category. Here are your five choices.
0:36:33 > 0:36:34Well?
0:36:34 > 0:36:37Um... I dunno!
0:36:37 > 0:36:41Famous Verses. No, I'm rubbish at literature.
0:36:41 > 0:36:44- Can't be doing literature. - Don't do film writers, either.
0:36:44 > 0:36:48International prizes. That'll be Pulitzer prizes and stuff, which are no good.
0:36:48 > 0:36:51What about tennis stars? Are you any good at tennis stars?
0:36:51 > 0:36:55- Give it a go, is it?- Don't say that now. I don't know!
0:36:55 > 0:36:57- Tennis stars. - Don't put pressure on me!
0:36:57 > 0:36:59- Tennis stars?- Yeah, go on, then.
0:36:59 > 0:37:01- Tennis stars.- Tennis stars.
0:37:01 > 0:37:03OK, here comes your question.
0:37:03 > 0:37:07We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
0:37:12 > 0:37:13..as they could. Richard.
0:37:13 > 0:37:15The nearly men of world tennis.
0:37:15 > 0:37:18Anyone who's been number two, three, four or five in the world rankings
0:37:18 > 0:37:21but not number one since the rankings began in 1973
0:37:21 > 0:37:24all the way through to October 2012, please.
0:37:24 > 0:37:26Any of those male tennis players. Best of luck.
0:37:26 > 0:37:30You now have up to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:37:30 > 0:37:34All you need to win that £2,750 is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:37:34 > 0:37:38- Are you ready?- Right.- Yep.- Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:37:38 > 0:37:41There they are. Your time starts now.
0:37:41 > 0:37:45Let's go right back. We've got the old ones like Ilie Nastase, Bjorn Borg,
0:37:45 > 0:37:50and an American called Stan Smith. Arthur Ashe.
0:37:50 > 0:37:55There are Kevin Curren, Richard Krajicek.
0:37:55 > 0:37:57- I'm thinking of Wimbledon winners, now.- Yeah.
0:37:57 > 0:38:02Whether they got to number one, we'll leave that open for the time.
0:38:04 > 0:38:05Those are some of the old ones.
0:38:05 > 0:38:07The new ones, they'd probably know.
0:38:07 > 0:38:13- I only know some of them.- Murray, Nidal, but he's been number one.
0:38:13 > 0:38:16Yes. So has Federer, so you can't mention either.
0:38:16 > 0:38:19- OK.- What about Andre Agassi? - I think he was number one.
0:38:19 > 0:38:21What about Greg Rusedski?
0:38:21 > 0:38:24Whether he's been top five. I don't know.
0:38:24 > 0:38:26Might be worth a punt. I don't know.
0:38:26 > 0:38:30- Tim Henman?- But they'd know that, wouldn't they?
0:38:30 > 0:38:32- Ten seconds left.- Richard Krajicek.
0:38:34 > 0:38:37Pat Cash. And Kevin Curren.
0:38:37 > 0:38:39Yep, if you want to go for those. Yep.
0:38:39 > 0:38:43- Right. - OK. Your time is up.
0:38:43 > 0:38:45We were looking for male tennis stars
0:38:45 > 0:38:48who've been in the top five but never quite been number one.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50Never exactly been number one.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52I now need your three answers.
0:38:52 > 0:38:54- Pat Cash.- Pat Cash.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57- Kevin Curren.- Kevin Curren.
0:38:57 > 0:39:00- And Richard Krajicek. - And Richard Krajicek.
0:39:00 > 0:39:03Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
0:39:03 > 0:39:07Best one? Perhaps Richard Krajicek.
0:39:07 > 0:39:08Richard Krajicek we'll put last.
0:39:08 > 0:39:11- And your least likely? - Pat Cash at the top there.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13Let's put those on the board in that order. Here they are.
0:39:13 > 0:39:17We've got Pat Cash, Kevin Curren and Richard Krajicek.
0:39:17 > 0:39:22We're looking for male tennis stars who've been in the top five but never been number one.
0:39:22 > 0:39:24Your first answer was Pat Cash.
0:39:24 > 0:39:26This is your least confident shot at a pointless answer.
0:39:26 > 0:39:31Only one of these has to be pointless for you to win that £2,750 jackpot.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34Let's see how many people said Pat Cash.
0:39:36 > 0:39:37It's right.
0:39:37 > 0:39:40That's the main thing. It was right.
0:39:40 > 0:39:43Let's find out. Is this going down to zero?
0:39:43 > 0:39:47If it does, you leave here with £2,750.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50It's still going down. Look at that! Two! Very well done!
0:39:57 > 0:39:58Wow!
0:39:58 > 0:40:00That's a great answer, isn't it?
0:40:00 > 0:40:05Two. Fantastic! Sadly, we're only interested in pointless answers at this stage of the game.
0:40:05 > 0:40:07But still a brilliant answer.
0:40:07 > 0:40:10Only two more chances to win today's jackpot.
0:40:10 > 0:40:12£2,750. What would you do with that, Martyn?
0:40:12 > 0:40:15Um, I love my sport.
0:40:15 > 0:40:17My partner will kill me for this.
0:40:17 > 0:40:24I'd put a bit away to take a Lions trip down under to watch the Lions against New Zealand.
0:40:24 > 0:40:25Excellent. Kayleigh?
0:40:25 > 0:40:30I'm going on holiday in a couple of weeks so it would be nice to have some spending money.
0:40:30 > 0:40:33Very good. You've got two more chances to win that jackpot.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36Male tennis stars who've been in the top five but never number one.
0:40:36 > 0:40:38Your next answer was Kevin Curren.
0:40:38 > 0:40:40Pat Cash scored only two.
0:40:40 > 0:40:43If this scores lower than that, there's only two possible scores it can have.
0:40:43 > 0:40:47One of them is very exciting. It has to be pointless to win that jackpot.
0:40:47 > 0:40:51For £2,750, let's see how many people said Kevin Curren.
0:40:54 > 0:40:55Well, it's right.
0:40:55 > 0:40:59So, as I say, Pat Cash took you down to two.
0:40:59 > 0:41:01If Kevin Curren can take you down to zero,
0:41:01 > 0:41:04you'll leave here with £2,750 on you.
0:41:04 > 0:41:06Down it goes!
0:41:06 > 0:41:08Still going! You've done it! Very well done, indeed!
0:41:11 > 0:41:13That is brilliant!
0:41:13 > 0:41:14Fantastic!
0:41:14 > 0:41:18Wonderful! Very well done indeed! Brilliant.
0:41:21 > 0:41:23Oh, my God!
0:41:25 > 0:41:28Congratulations!
0:41:31 > 0:41:34You didn't think that was going to go anywhere near pointless.
0:41:34 > 0:41:36Fantastic. Kevin Curren was a pointless answer,
0:41:36 > 0:41:40which means you leave here with a jackpot of £2,750.
0:41:40 > 0:41:42Very well done!
0:41:47 > 0:41:50Very, very well done indeed, Martyn and Kayleigh.
0:41:50 > 0:41:52Well, that was the dream category, Martyn, wasn't it?
0:41:52 > 0:41:56As soon as it came up I could see you had eyes for nothing but tennis stars.
0:41:56 > 0:42:01Yes, Kevin Curren was number five in the world in 1985.
0:42:01 > 0:42:03Same year he was in the final at Wimbledon.
0:42:03 > 0:42:08Terrific answer. You could have gone on naming tennis stars all day.
0:42:08 > 0:42:12Richard Krajicek reached number four in the world in 1999 -
0:42:12 > 0:42:14also a pointless answer!
0:42:14 > 0:42:16Oh, get in!
0:42:21 > 0:42:24Here are a few more. There's plenty of them for any tennis fans out there.
0:42:24 > 0:42:26Let's look at a few.
0:42:26 > 0:42:29David Nalbandian, the Argentine, was a pointless answer.
0:42:29 > 0:42:31Goran Ivanisevic, a pointless answer.
0:42:31 > 0:42:34Jo-Wilfried Tsonga reached number five in 2012.
0:42:34 > 0:42:36Great answer.
0:42:36 > 0:42:38Michael Stich, the German.
0:42:38 > 0:42:42Nikolay Davydenko. Petr Korda got to number two in the world, the Czech.
0:42:42 > 0:42:45Richard Krajicek. Robin Soderling, the Swede.
0:42:45 > 0:42:46Sebastien Grosjean, the Frenchman.
0:42:46 > 0:42:49A few others. Yannick Noah was a pointless answer.
0:42:49 > 0:42:53You could have had Todd Martin, Rainer Schuttler, Nicolas Keifer, pointless answers.
0:42:53 > 0:42:56Jonas Bjorkman, Guy Forget, a pointless answer.
0:42:56 > 0:42:59Henri Leconte. Ivan Ljubicic. Plenty of pointless answers out there.
0:42:59 > 0:43:01Well done if you got any at home.
0:43:01 > 0:43:05- Congratulations, guys. A terrific end to a terrific show. - Thank you very much.- Thank you!
0:43:05 > 0:43:09Thanks again to our winning players Martyn and Kayleigh, who go away with today's jackpot
0:43:09 > 0:43:11of £2,750.
0:43:16 > 0:43:19Join us next time when we'll put more obscure knowledge to the test on Pointless.
0:43:19 > 0:43:23- Meanwhile it's goodbye from Richard. - Goodbye.- And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
