0:00:20 > 0:00:21APPLAUSE
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Thank you. Hello. I'm Alexander Armstrong. Welcome to Pointless.
0:00:27 > 0:00:31This is the quiz show where all the questions have been asked to 100 people before the show.
0:00:31 > 0:00:35All our contestants have to do is come up with the answers those 100 people couldn't think of.
0:00:35 > 0:00:36Let's meet today's players.
0:00:40 > 0:00:41Couple number one.
0:00:41 > 0:00:46Hello. My name's Terry. This is my daughter, Sarah. We're from Mansfield in Nottinghamshire.
0:00:46 > 0:00:47Couple number two.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49Hello. I'm Slim. This is my wife, Marianne.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52And we live in Hackney in London.
0:00:52 > 0:00:53Couple number three.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Hi. My name's Geoff, and this is
0:00:55 > 0:00:58my friend and work colleague, Michael. We're from Belfast.
0:00:58 > 0:01:00And finally, couple number four.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02Hello. My name's Neil. This is my friend, Euan.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04We're students at the University of Glasgow.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06And these are today's contestants.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12Thanks, all of you. We'll find out more about you throughout the show.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15So that just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17Squishing the green shoots of stupidity
0:01:17 > 0:01:19with a thumping pair of size 16 brogues,
0:01:19 > 0:01:21it's my Pointless friend - it's Richard.
0:01:21 > 0:01:22Hiya.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24Hi, everybody.
0:01:24 > 0:01:25APPLAUSE
0:01:27 > 0:01:30- Afternoon.- And to you. Afternoon. - How are you?- Very well, thank you.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33We've had an awful lot of contestants on this show over the years.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36We have eight people every day and we've done nearly 500 shows.
0:01:36 > 0:01:40It's rare that we come across a name we've never had on the show before. We've had pretty much every name.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43But today we've got a brand-new name on the show.
0:01:43 > 0:01:44I was looking through the records.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47We've never had anyone called Neil on the show before.
0:01:47 > 0:01:48LAUGHTER
0:01:48 > 0:01:53In our four groups today, we've got representatives of England, Scotland and Ireland.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56Round One is going to be very interesting.
0:01:59 > 0:02:00I will just say that.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02OK. Thank you very much indeed.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05All our questions on Pointless have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:02:05 > 0:02:09Our contestants need to find the obscure answers our 100 people couldn't find.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11Everyone's trying to find a pointless answer -
0:02:11 > 0:02:14an answer none of our 100 people gave. Each time that happens,
0:02:14 > 0:02:16we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:02:16 > 0:02:20Luke and Chloe didn't win the jackpot last time, so we add another £1,000 to that,
0:02:20 > 0:02:24so today's jackpot starts off at a nice round £4,000.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:35 > 0:02:39In this first round, I'll take an answer from each of you, but there's to be no conferring.
0:02:39 > 0:02:43Whichever pair has the highest score at the end will be eliminated, so try and make sure that's not you.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Our first category today is...
0:02:49 > 0:02:51There we go. Completes the set. Wales.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going second.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02OK. And the question concerns...
0:03:05 > 0:03:06Welsh heroes. Richard.
0:03:06 > 0:03:10On each pass, we'll give you seven clues to Welsh heroes -
0:03:10 > 0:03:12people who have appeared on the list The 100 Welsh Heroes.
0:03:12 > 0:03:16They weren't all actually born in Wales, but they were all considered Welsh heroes.
0:03:16 > 0:03:1914 in all to get in the studio, 14 in all to get at home. Very best of luck.
0:03:19 > 0:03:23So we're looking for the Welsh heroes described on this board.
0:03:23 > 0:03:24And here we have...
0:03:53 > 0:03:55I'll read those all one final time.
0:04:24 > 0:04:26Terry and Sarah, you all drew lots before the show, and today
0:04:26 > 0:04:28you are going to go first.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31Now, Terry, the last time you went first,
0:04:31 > 0:04:32you left first!
0:04:32 > 0:04:33Yes.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35- Unfortunately.- What was it?
0:04:35 > 0:04:40- Chemicals.- Yes, you didn't know your arsenic from your silver, did you?
0:04:40 > 0:04:41That was, er...
0:04:43 > 0:04:44- Easy mistake to make.- It is.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47Now then, Terry, remind us what you do.
0:04:47 > 0:04:51I work as an account manager
0:04:51 > 0:04:54for a...retail company.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57OK. And how are you feeling about Welsh heroes?
0:04:57 > 0:05:00I think I know one or two of those.
0:05:00 > 0:05:01Um...
0:05:01 > 0:05:03So...yeah...
0:05:03 > 0:05:04I'm going to play safe.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07And I think it...
0:05:07 > 0:05:10it's Catherine Zeta Jones who won the Oscar for Chicago.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Catherine Zeta Jones.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15Let's see if that's right, and if it is, how many people said Catherine Zeta Jones.
0:05:18 > 0:05:19Absolutely right.
0:05:23 > 0:05:2435.
0:05:24 > 0:05:25Good.
0:05:27 > 0:05:2835 for Catherine Zeta Jones.
0:05:28 > 0:05:3213th on that List Of Welsh Heroes, Catherine Zeta Jones.
0:05:32 > 0:05:33Married to Michael Douglas, of course.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35Now then, Slim.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Slim, welcome to the show. What do you do, Slim?
0:05:37 > 0:05:39I manage buildings during the day,
0:05:39 > 0:05:41then I'm a musician all the rest of the time.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44You've played with some pretty formidable names, haven't you?
0:05:44 > 0:05:48I have. I came into the business through Ian Dury and the Blockheads.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50But I won a competition.
0:05:50 > 0:05:51They let me play with them.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Wow! What do you play?
0:05:53 > 0:05:56With them, I played organ, but I'm known as an accordion player
0:05:56 > 0:05:58and I play a bit of piano.
0:05:58 > 0:05:59OK. How are you on Welsh heroes, Slim?
0:05:59 > 0:06:01I know a couple of them.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03I did say I was going to play safe...
0:06:04 > 0:06:06..so I think I probably will.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08I've been tempted to try some of the others.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13But I'll stick with the music. Famous singer born Woodward - Tom Jones.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16Tom Jones. Let's see if that's right and if it is,
0:06:16 > 0:06:18let's see how many people said Tom Jones.
0:06:19 > 0:06:20It's right.
0:06:24 > 0:06:25Very well done indeed.
0:06:25 > 0:06:2736.
0:06:29 > 0:06:30Not bad.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32Came third on the list, Tom Jones, amazingly.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34Now then, Geoff.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36- Hi.- Geoff, welcome back to the show.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38You were on last time. Remind us what happened.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41We got a question on sporting greats -
0:06:41 > 0:06:43how much money they earned, basically.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46We got very close answers, but we were just unlucky.
0:06:46 > 0:06:50Exactly. You left, but for the right reasons. High scorers, because you were taking a punt.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53Now then... So we're looking for the names of these Welsh people.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55I'm pretty sure
0:06:55 > 0:06:58of one which I think will be very low,
0:06:58 > 0:07:00but I don't want to get it wrong,
0:07:00 > 0:07:02so I'm going to go for the Labour politician
0:07:02 > 0:07:05regarded as the father of the NHS - Aneurin Bevan.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08OK. Aneurin Bevan, says Geoff.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Let's see if that's right, and if it is,
0:07:10 > 0:07:12let's see how many people knew that answer.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16It's right.
0:07:20 > 0:07:2120.
0:07:23 > 0:07:24Best score so far, Geoff.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29Good answer, Geoff. Aneurin Bevan.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32He actually came top of the poll of the greatest Welsh heroes.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34And Euan.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37- Welcome to the show. You're at Glasgow University.- Yep.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40- What are you reading there? - I'm studying medicine.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42What do you get up to when you're not doing your medicine?
0:07:42 > 0:07:46Apart from studying medicine, I've got a part-time job at the cinema in Glasgow,
0:07:46 > 0:07:49so that's where I get to see lots of free films in my spare time.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52Good stuff. How are you feeling about these Welsh?
0:07:52 > 0:07:54It's not the best board in the world.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57I've only been to Wales once, and I wasn't there for very long.
0:07:57 > 0:08:01But I think I know the top one is Roald Dahl,
0:08:01 > 0:08:03but I think that's going to score pretty high.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06I don't know the lead singer of the Manic Street Preachers.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08I don't know the scrum half.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10I'm going to take a punt, I think,
0:08:10 > 0:08:13on the Gang of Four politician who co-founded the SDP.
0:08:13 > 0:08:17His name sounds Welsh, but I don't know if I'm confusing him with someone else.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19I'm going to say David Owen.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21David Owen, says Euan.
0:08:21 > 0:08:25OK. Let's see if that's right, and if it is, let's see how many people knew that answer.
0:08:27 > 0:08:28Bad luck!
0:08:28 > 0:08:31You're right - it does sound like it ought to be Welsh,
0:08:31 > 0:08:34but I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer. Scores you the maximum of 100 points.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37Sorry, Euan. Actually, three of the Gang of Four
0:08:37 > 0:08:40had Welsh-sounding names. You just chose the wrong one.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43Not David Owen. Not Shirley Williams either - Roy Jenkins
0:08:43 > 0:08:45was the answer you needed. Would have scored 2 points.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Would have been a terrific answer.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50The scrum half was Gareth Edwards. Would have scored you 9 points.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52The author who created Willy Wonka...
0:08:52 > 0:08:54Euan should have gone for it - it is Roald Dahl.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57Would have scored you 34 points,
0:08:57 > 0:08:59so wouldn't have done an awful lot of damage.
0:08:59 > 0:09:03- And the lead singer of the Manic Street Preachers...- His first two names are James Dean...
0:09:03 > 0:09:05- James Dean Bradfield.- Bradfield!
0:09:05 > 0:09:06Would have scored 6 points.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09Thanks very much indeed. We are halfway through the round.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11Let's take a look at our scores.
0:09:11 > 0:09:1420 the best score of that pass. Very well done, Geoff and Michael.
0:09:14 > 0:09:15Looking strong on the back of that.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Terry and Sarah on 35,
0:09:17 > 0:09:19then up to 36, where we find Slim and Marianne,
0:09:19 > 0:09:23and then up to 100, I'm afraid, where we find Euan and Neil.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26Now, Neil, you'll have first pick of the next board. Use it wisely.
0:09:26 > 0:09:27Find a nice low-scoring answer,
0:09:27 > 0:09:29and maybe that'll be enough to keep you in the game.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31We'll come back down the line now.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34Can the second players please take their places at the podium.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39Let's put seven more Welsh people on the board. And here they are.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10I'll read those all one final time.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37Remember, we are looking for the names of these Welsh people.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41Neil, you'll have to try and find the one that fewest of our 100 people knew.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44- Neil, what are you reading? - I'm medicine as well.
0:10:44 > 0:10:45- Two medics.- Yes.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47OK. Now then...
0:10:47 > 0:10:49how do you find this board, Neil?
0:10:49 > 0:10:50Er...
0:10:50 > 0:10:53You want to try and take a punt at something, but...
0:10:54 > 0:10:57I'm thinking maybe people's politics is not really the best,
0:10:57 > 0:10:59so I'm going to go with the Liberal Prime Minister.
0:10:59 > 0:11:00It's David Lloyd George.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02David Lloyd George, says Neil.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04There's no red line - you're the high scorers.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07Let's see how many people said David Lloyd George.
0:11:09 > 0:11:10It's right.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15Still going down, Neil.
0:11:15 > 0:11:1622.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20122 your total.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24Well played, Neil. Given yourself a chance there.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26He was actually born in Manchester,
0:11:26 > 0:11:28but grew up almost exclusively in Wales.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30A fierce Welsh nationalist.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32The only Welsh politician to be Prime Minister as well.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34Michael.
0:11:34 > 0:11:36Welcome back to the show.
0:11:36 > 0:11:38Remind us what you do, Michael.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40I'm a computer programmer.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42I write mobile applications for personal safety.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45OK. Now then...the Welsh.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Not a strong subject for me.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49I'm going to try and play it safe, hopefully.
0:11:49 > 0:11:53The author of the play Under Milk Wood -
0:11:53 > 0:11:54Dylan Jones.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56Dylan Jones.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58OK. Dylan Jones, says Michael.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01Well, you're on 20. You're safe. Even if you get this wrong,
0:12:01 > 0:12:02and score 100 points,
0:12:02 > 0:12:06you still won't overtake the high scorers, Neil and Euan. But you're saying Dylan Jones,
0:12:06 > 0:12:09the author of Under Milk Wood. Let's see if that's right.
0:12:11 > 0:12:12Bad luck.
0:12:12 > 0:12:16Incorrect answer. Scores you 100 points, but you're through to the next round anyhow.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18Not Dylan Jones, I'm afraid.
0:12:18 > 0:12:22Dylan Jones is the editor of GQ magazine, if that's...
0:12:22 > 0:12:23but he was not on that list.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25Now, Marianne.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28- Hello.- Welcome to the show. Great to have you here.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30- What do you do, Marianne? - I'm a teacher.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33- What do you teach?- I teach primary school children,
0:12:33 > 0:12:35so any age at primary, any subject.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38Good stuff. And what are your hobbies?
0:12:38 > 0:12:41I like to do crosswords, cryptic crosswords.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44I've done the same crossword in the same newspaper every week
0:12:44 > 0:12:46for 20 years.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Very good. And you always finish it?
0:12:48 > 0:12:49- Usually.- Yeah.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52So remember, we want the names of these Welsh people.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54Mmm. I think I know two of them.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57And one I'm more sure of than the other,
0:12:57 > 0:13:00so I think the author of Under Milk Wood was Dylan Thomas.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02Dylan Thomas, says Marianne.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06Now, 122 is our high score - Neil and Euan on 122.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08You're on 36.
0:13:08 > 0:13:1185 or less sees you through to the next round. There's your red line.
0:13:11 > 0:13:14Dylan Thomas. Is that right, and how many people said it?
0:13:17 > 0:13:19Very well done, and you're through.
0:13:21 > 0:13:2334.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26Fantastic. 70 is your total.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31Well done, Marianne. Dylan Thomas came seventh. Born in Swansea.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33Thanks very much. Now then, Sarah.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35Sarah, welcome back.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Now, this time, you must not leave in Round One.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42- That can't happen.- We can't join the 400 Club.- No.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44Simply can't.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47Sarah, you're the last person to have this board. Talk us through it.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49Right. The footballer...
0:13:49 > 0:13:51I think it's Ian Rush,
0:13:51 > 0:13:53but it could possibly be Mark Hughes.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57Um... I'm not sure about the actor.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59Is it Cary Grant? I don't know.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01No idea about the philosopher.
0:14:02 > 0:14:06The only opera singer I can think of round that age would be Lesley Garrett,
0:14:06 > 0:14:07but I don't think bass baritone is her.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09- In the mornings.- Maybe!
0:14:09 > 0:14:11So I'm going to go for the hurdler,
0:14:11 > 0:14:13who I think is Colin Jackson.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16You're going to say Colin Jackson for the hurdler.
0:14:16 > 0:14:17OK.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19The high scorers on 122 are Neil and Euan.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22You're on 35, so 86 or less sees you through.
0:14:22 > 0:14:23There's your red line.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26Colin Jackson. Is that right, and if it is, how many people said it?
0:14:28 > 0:14:31It's right, and you are through to the next round. Very well done.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36That's a great answer - look at it going down. 14. Very well done.
0:14:37 > 0:14:3849 your total.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44Well played, Sarah. The brilliant Colin Jackson.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Much better than last time. 49. Very well done.
0:14:46 > 0:14:47Let's go through the rest.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50You're right about the footballer. It was Ian Rush.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52He would have scored you 6 points.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54The actor who starred in the film Cleopatra...
0:14:54 > 0:14:56- Richard Burton?- Richard Burton.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58Would have scored you 45 points.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00That's a big score.
0:15:00 > 0:15:01The atheist philosopher?
0:15:01 > 0:15:03Bertrand Russell.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05Would have scored you 2 points.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08- And you know the bass baritone opera singer.- I'm going to say Bryn Terfel.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10You're correct. Well done.
0:15:10 > 0:15:11Would have scored 3 points.
0:15:11 > 0:15:15Very well done to anyone who got all of those. Terrific work if you did.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19At the end of our first round, the pair leaving,
0:15:19 > 0:15:20with their high score of 122...
0:15:20 > 0:15:23They've only just got here. It's Neil and Euan.
0:15:23 > 0:15:24We'll see you again next time.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27We'll look forward to that very much indeed.
0:15:27 > 0:15:28Neil and Euan.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34But for the remaining three pairs, it's time for Round Two.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43So, obviously, there's only room for two pairs in our head-to-head round,
0:15:43 > 0:15:46so one of the pairs in front of me will have to leave at the end of this round.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48Very best of luck to all three pairs.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Our category for Round Two today is...
0:15:51 > 0:15:55Film. Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58Whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:16:02 > 0:16:04to name as many...
0:16:08 > 0:16:12Looking for the name of any man or woman who received an acting credit
0:16:12 > 0:16:15in Quentin Tarantino's 1994 film Pulp Fiction.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17Very, very best of luck.
0:16:17 > 0:16:18OK.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20Thanks very much. Now, Sarah.
0:16:22 > 0:16:23You are going first.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26- Have you seen Pulp Fiction? - I have, a long time ago.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30Um...I can only really think of the main actors in it.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33But one who's a main actor has a bit of a smaller part.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35I'm going to go for Bruce Willis.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37Bruce Willis. Let's see if that's right
0:16:37 > 0:16:39and how many people said Bruce Willis.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42Yes, well remembered. Bruce Willis.
0:16:46 > 0:16:4724.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50It's a good answer. Bruce Willis.
0:16:52 > 0:16:54Good work. He plays the boxer, Butch Coolidge,
0:16:54 > 0:16:56who's paid to take a dive, and doesn't.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59Now then. Marianne.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01- Have you seen Pulp Fiction? - I haven't.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04- OK.- It's not the stuff for primary school teachers!
0:17:04 > 0:17:06No. No.
0:17:06 > 0:17:10- I'm going to have a guess at a name of someone I think's in it.- OK.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12With no confidence whatsoever.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15- John Travolta.- John Travolta.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19Let's see if that's right, and if it is, let's see how many people said John Travolta.
0:17:21 > 0:17:22It's right.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26Ooh, it's a punishingly high score, though.
0:17:26 > 0:17:2866. John Travolta.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31Yes, he plays Vincent Vega in Pulp Fiction.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33He's the brother of Mr Blonde
0:17:33 > 0:17:34in Reservoir Dogs.
0:17:37 > 0:17:40Now then, Michael. We're looking for the name of any actor or actress from Pulp Fiction.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43I'm going to go for...
0:17:43 > 0:17:46a lesser-known actress from my home town of Derry.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49- Bronagh Gallagher.- Bronagh Gillicker.- Gallagher.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51- Oh, Gallagher!- Yeah.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57Let's see if that's right, and if it is, let's see how many people said it.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59That could be a brilliant answer.
0:18:01 > 0:18:02It's right.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10And it's pointless!
0:18:10 > 0:18:12Very, very well done indeed, Michael.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16That adds £250 to today's jackpot,
0:18:16 > 0:18:19taking the total up to £4,250.
0:18:20 > 0:18:22And it scores you nothing, Michael.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24Very well done indeed. Great answer.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26That landed very nicely, Michael.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29Bronagh Gallagher. Most people in the UK will know her from The Commitments.
0:18:29 > 0:18:33She stars in that, and she's also in Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace.
0:18:33 > 0:18:37Thanks very much indeed. We're halfway through the round. Let's look at our scores.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39Michael, what a fantastic start to that round.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41A score of nothing for Michael and Geoff.
0:18:41 > 0:18:4324 is where we find Sarah and Terry,
0:18:43 > 0:18:46and then up to 66, where we find Marianne and Slim.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49Slim, we need a low score from you,
0:18:49 > 0:18:51or it'll be cross words between you.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56Can the second players please take their places at the podium.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02Remember, Geoff, we're looking for the name of any actor or actress
0:19:02 > 0:19:04who is credited with an appearance in Pulp Fiction.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07You're on nothing. Brilliant score from Michael there.
0:19:07 > 0:19:0966 the high score from Marianne.
0:19:09 > 0:19:11So if you can score 65 or less,
0:19:11 > 0:19:13you're in the head-to-head.
0:19:13 > 0:19:16I'm going to go for Samuel L Jackson.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18Samuel L Jackson. Here's your red line.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Get below that, you're in the head-to-head.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23Let's see how many people said Samuel L Jackson.
0:19:26 > 0:19:27You're through. Very well done.
0:19:29 > 0:19:3036.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35That gives you a total of 36.
0:19:35 > 0:19:39He plays John Travolta's partner in crime in that film, Samuel L Jackson.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42Now then, Slim.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44We require from you a really low score.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46- What are you going to go for? - Tim Roth.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49Tim Roth, says Slim.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51No red line for you - you're the high scorers.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53Let's see how many people said Tim Roth.
0:19:55 > 0:19:56It's right.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02It's a good answer - down it goes to 7.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05Very well done indeed! Second lowest score of the round.
0:20:05 > 0:20:097 for Tim Roth, taking your total up to 73.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12Well played, Slim. He's in the scene that sort of book-ends the film.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15- He was Mr Orange in Reservoir Dogs as well.- Yeah.
0:20:17 > 0:20:18Terry.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20The last one to answer.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22Now, you have to score 48 or less
0:20:22 > 0:20:25to avoid overtaking Slim and Marianne
0:20:25 > 0:20:27on 73.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30All the answers I knew have gone.
0:20:30 > 0:20:31Um...
0:20:31 > 0:20:35and I'm getting mixed up with two actresses by name.
0:20:35 > 0:20:40She was a blonde girl in the film that went to the...
0:20:40 > 0:20:42cafe, the diner, with him.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44Reese Witherspoon.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46Reese Witherspoon, says Terry.
0:20:46 > 0:20:48Here is your red line.
0:20:50 > 0:20:51That's what you have to get below.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54Reese Witherspoon. Is it right? How many people said it?
0:20:58 > 0:20:59Bad luck.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02Bad luck, Terry. I'm sorry. That is an incorrect, as I think you knew.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05That scores you the maximum of 100 points
0:21:05 > 0:21:06and takes your total up to 124.
0:21:06 > 0:21:10- Richard.- Sorry, Terry. Sometimes a name just gets stuck in your head
0:21:10 > 0:21:13and there's literally nothing you can do about it.
0:21:13 > 0:21:17Are you talking about the character who was with Tim Roth in the diner?
0:21:17 > 0:21:20No, the one who was with Travolta doing the dancing.
0:21:20 > 0:21:21Well, that's Uma Thurman.
0:21:21 > 0:21:25- Yes.- Uma Thurman would have scored you 42 points
0:21:25 > 0:21:27and would just have seen you through.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29The woman who's with Tim Roth in the diner
0:21:29 > 0:21:32is Amanda Plummer, and she would have scored you 6 points.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34I'll go through a few low scorers.
0:21:34 > 0:21:36Ving Rhames would have scored you 6.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38Harvey Keitel would have scored you 6.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40Eric Stoltz would have scored you 5.
0:21:40 > 0:21:41Rosanna Arquette, 3.
0:21:41 > 0:21:45Christopher Walken and Steve Buscemi would have both scored you 2 points.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47Let's look at some of the pointless answers.
0:21:47 > 0:21:49Bronagh Gallagher.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51Though you said it much nicer than I just said it.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54- How would you say Gallagher again? - Gallagher.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56- It's effortless, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:21:56 > 0:22:00Angela Jones, Carl Allen, both pointless answers.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Chandler Lindauer, Don Blakely and Duane Whitaker.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05Well done if you said any of these.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08Julia Sweeney, Laura Lovelace and Venessia Valentino.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11Let's take a look at the top three answers - we've heard them already.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13Geoff gave us Samuel L Jackson.
0:22:13 > 0:22:19Terry tried to give us Uma Thurman, which would have scored you 42.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21And John Travolta, we've already heard from Marianne,
0:22:21 > 0:22:23with 66.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27I'm afraid that means, at the end of our second round,
0:22:27 > 0:22:30Terry and Sarah, we have to say goodbye to you.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33Well, it was Round One last time.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35So you've done precisely twice as well this time.
0:22:35 > 0:22:39I had high hopes of seeing you through to the final today.
0:22:39 > 0:22:44Oh, well, we have to say goodbye. It's been lovely having you on the show. Thanks so much for playing.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50But for the remaining two pairs, it's now time for the head-to-head.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59Congratulations, Slim and Marianne and Michael and Geoff.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01You are now one step closer to the final and the chance
0:23:01 > 0:23:04to play for our jackpot, which currently stands at £4,250.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11Now, to decide who gets to play for that money,
0:23:11 > 0:23:14you are going to go head-to-head. You are now allowed to confer.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16The first pair to win two questions will be playing for the jackpot.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29OK, here is your first question. It concerns...
0:23:33 > 0:23:34Former capitals. Richard.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36We're going to show you five pictures of cities
0:23:36 > 0:23:39which used to be the capitals of their respective countries.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41We need you to tell us the country they used to be capital of.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44Looking for the country of one of these five.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47OK, let's reveal our five former capitals.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49And here they are. We have got...
0:24:15 > 0:24:16There we are.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18Five former capital cities.
0:24:18 > 0:24:22Slim and Marianne, you played best throughout the show so far, so you go first.
0:24:22 > 0:24:25THEY CONFER
0:24:28 > 0:24:30Well, the only former capital we can think of is Bonn.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32And it doesn't look like any of those.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34A.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36- We're going for A - Germany. - A - Germany,
0:24:36 > 0:24:39say Slim and Marianne. A - Germany. Michael and Geoff,
0:24:39 > 0:24:42the board is entirely yours. Talk us through it
0:24:42 > 0:24:44and see if you can have a punt at any of them.
0:24:44 > 0:24:45We think that C
0:24:45 > 0:24:48is in the former capital of Turkey,
0:24:48 > 0:24:50which might be Constantinople.
0:24:50 > 0:24:54D looks to me like it could well be New York,
0:24:54 > 0:24:56which is obviously now Washington.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58So...
0:24:58 > 0:25:01we'll go for D - New York.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04- We need the name of a country. - US of A.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06OK. D - USA.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08So we have
0:25:08 > 0:25:09A - Germany,
0:25:09 > 0:25:11D - USA.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13Slim and Marianne said A - Germany.
0:25:13 > 0:25:15Let's see if that's right, and how many people said it.
0:25:18 > 0:25:19Ooh!
0:25:19 > 0:25:21I'm afraid an incorrect answer.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24Michael and Geoff have said D - USA.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27All you have to be is correct with this to win the points.
0:25:27 > 0:25:28Let's find out if you are.
0:25:30 > 0:25:31Ooh!
0:25:32 > 0:25:35Two incorrect answers, which means, after one question,
0:25:35 > 0:25:37you're still level on 0-0. Richard.
0:25:37 > 0:25:41Really, really, really tough. Let's bring them up one by one.
0:25:41 > 0:25:42Now, A...
0:25:42 > 0:25:44Only one I think I know.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46I think that's Agra in India.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48It's Calcutta in India,
0:25:48 > 0:25:49but India is the answer.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51That would have scored you 17 points.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53That's the Victoria Memorial in Calcutta.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56B, let's take a look at that.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59Now, the clue's in the architecture.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01That's Kyoto, Japan.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05Would have scored you 16 points.
0:26:05 > 0:26:06C...
0:26:08 > 0:26:10Again, some sort of clues in the architecture.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13That's St Petersburg, which used to be the capital of Russia.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16Would have scored 4 points.
0:26:16 > 0:26:17D...
0:26:17 > 0:26:20That's actually Lagos, Nigeria.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22So, Nigeria the answer there.
0:26:22 > 0:26:24It would have been a pointless answer as well,
0:26:24 > 0:26:26so very well done if you said that.
0:26:26 > 0:26:27And E...
0:26:27 > 0:26:31That is a picture of Rio de Janeiro.
0:26:31 > 0:26:32So the answer there is Brazil,
0:26:32 > 0:26:35which would have scored 18.
0:26:35 > 0:26:37- Tough.- Very tough.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40Now, here comes your second question.
0:26:40 > 0:26:42Michael and Geoff, you get to go first this time.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44Our second question concerns...
0:26:47 > 0:26:52- Richard.- We're about to show you five clues to facts about Stephen Hawking.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54Can you answer the most obscure of these?
0:26:54 > 0:26:56OK, let's reveal our five clues to Stephen Hawking.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58And here they come. We have got...
0:27:19 > 0:27:21I'll read those all one final time.
0:27:40 > 0:27:42There you are. Five clues to facts about Stephen Hawking.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45Michael and Geoff, off you go.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47THEY CONFER
0:27:51 > 0:27:53We're going to go for question two,
0:27:53 > 0:27:57and we believe the answer is A Brief History Of Time.
0:27:57 > 0:28:01A Brief History Of Time, say Michael and Geoff. A Brief History Of Time.
0:28:01 > 0:28:03Slim and Marianne,
0:28:03 > 0:28:05talk us through the rest of the board, if you can.
0:28:05 > 0:28:06We can't!
0:28:06 > 0:28:09Yeah, the only one we think we know
0:28:09 > 0:28:11is the bottom one -
0:28:11 > 0:28:12The Simpsons.
0:28:12 > 0:28:14You're going to say The Simpsons.
0:28:14 > 0:28:16So we have A Brief History Of Time and we have The Simpsons.
0:28:16 > 0:28:19Michael and Geoff said A Brief History Of Time.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21Let's see if that's right and how many people said that.
0:28:23 > 0:28:24It's right.
0:28:29 > 0:28:30Oh, very well done - 17.
0:28:34 > 0:28:3617 for A Brief History Of Time.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38Slim and Marianne have gone for The Simpsons.
0:28:38 > 0:28:41He first appeared in this animated US TV series in 1999.
0:28:41 > 0:28:45Let's see if that's right, and if it is, let's see how many people said The Simpsons.
0:28:45 > 0:28:47It's right.
0:28:47 > 0:28:49Is it going to go down and beat 17?
0:28:49 > 0:28:51Oh, 41.
0:28:51 > 0:28:52No.
0:28:53 > 0:28:54Bad luck.
0:28:54 > 0:28:56Very well done, Michael and Geoff.
0:28:56 > 0:28:58After two questions, you are up 1-0.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01He's appeared in four episodes of The Simpsons to date,
0:29:01 > 0:29:03and two of Futurama as well.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06Let's take a look at the rest of these.
0:29:06 > 0:29:08Now, he was born on the 300th anniversary
0:29:08 > 0:29:10of Galileo Galilei.
0:29:10 > 0:29:12That would have scored you 3 points.
0:29:12 > 0:29:16He took the zero-gravity flight - they call it the Vomit Comet.
0:29:16 > 0:29:19It takes off and does a series of incredible dives,
0:29:19 > 0:29:22so he was weightless for 25 seconds at a time.
0:29:22 > 0:29:26And it took off from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
0:29:26 > 0:29:28Would have scored 11.
0:29:28 > 0:29:31And the mathematician with whom he co-wrote The Nature Of Space And Time...
0:29:31 > 0:29:34First time he's been an answer on this show - Sir Roger Penrose.
0:29:34 > 0:29:38- Would have scored you 1 point. Best answer up there. Well done if you said that.- Thank you.
0:29:38 > 0:29:40Here comes your third question.
0:29:40 > 0:29:43Slim and Marianne, you need to win this one to stay in the game.
0:29:43 > 0:29:44It concerns...
0:29:49 > 0:29:51England footballers who've been sent off.
0:29:51 > 0:29:55There haven't been all that many of them. We'll show you anagrams of five of them now.
0:29:55 > 0:29:58Unscramble them and give us the most obscure.
0:29:58 > 0:30:01OK, let's reveal our five footballers in anagram form.
0:30:01 > 0:30:03And here they are. We have got...
0:30:09 > 0:30:11I'll read them a second time.
0:30:17 > 0:30:19There we are. Five anagrams of England footballers
0:30:19 > 0:30:22who've been sent off while playing for their country.
0:30:22 > 0:30:24Slim and Marianne, you go first.
0:30:25 > 0:30:27THEY CONFER
0:30:31 > 0:30:33We know one. I think everybody's going to know it,
0:30:33 > 0:30:35so I think I've worked out an anagram
0:30:35 > 0:30:38and I think this person might be a footballer,
0:30:38 > 0:30:41so we're going to throw caution to the wind...
0:30:41 > 0:30:43Of course - this plays right into your hands!
0:30:43 > 0:30:45We're going to go Paul Ince.
0:30:45 > 0:30:46Paul Ince...
0:30:46 > 0:30:49- Was he even a footballer?- ..say Slim and Marianne.
0:30:49 > 0:30:51Now then, Michael and Geoff.
0:30:51 > 0:30:54Um...that was a good one.
0:30:54 > 0:30:57I've heard people say that a lot, but I didn't know that one.
0:30:57 > 0:30:59The top one we know is David Beckham.
0:30:59 > 0:31:00That's probably half the world.
0:31:00 > 0:31:03So we're going to go for the third one,
0:31:03 > 0:31:05which is Wayne Rooney.
0:31:05 > 0:31:08Wayne Rooney, for the middle one - annoy eye row.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11So we have Paul Ince and Wayne Rooney.
0:31:11 > 0:31:13Slim and Marianne, you have to win to stay in the game.
0:31:13 > 0:31:16Let's see if you're going to. Paul Ince - how many people said that?
0:31:19 > 0:31:20It's right.
0:31:26 > 0:31:28Very well done. 8 for Paul Ince.
0:31:32 > 0:31:33Very well done.
0:31:33 > 0:31:37Michael and Geoff have gone for Wayne Rooney. Let's see how many people said that.
0:31:40 > 0:31:41It's right, obviously.
0:31:41 > 0:31:44Is it going to get anywhere near 17, maybe even below 17...?
0:31:44 > 0:31:46Ooh, 27.
0:31:49 > 0:31:5127. Very well done. Slim and Marianne back in the game.
0:31:51 > 0:31:53After three questions, it's 1-1.
0:31:53 > 0:31:56Very well played, Marianne. Good anagram work there.
0:31:56 > 0:31:58Lucky you didn't say Len Ciapu.
0:31:58 > 0:32:01Let's look at the rest. You're right about avoiding David Beckham -
0:32:01 > 0:32:04backhand dived. That would have scored you 68 points.
0:32:04 > 0:32:08Now, the other two - both very famous England footballers.
0:32:08 > 0:32:09Danger reverts -
0:32:09 > 0:32:11it's Steven Gerrard.
0:32:12 > 0:32:14That would have scored 6.
0:32:14 > 0:32:16And the best answer - I didn't get this one -
0:32:16 > 0:32:17very famous England footballer.
0:32:17 > 0:32:19Paul Scholes.
0:32:19 > 0:32:21Paul Scholes for 3 points.
0:32:21 > 0:32:23Very well done if you got that at home.
0:32:23 > 0:32:26Thanks very much indeed. Well done, both of you, for getting correct answers.
0:32:26 > 0:32:28Here comes your fourth question.
0:32:28 > 0:32:32This is the decider. Whoever wins this goes through and plays for that jackpot.
0:32:32 > 0:32:34It concerns...
0:32:37 > 0:32:41- Essex. Richard.- We're going to give you five clues to facts about the wonderful county of Essex.
0:32:41 > 0:32:45Whoever gives us the most obscure answer goes through to play for that jackpot.
0:32:45 > 0:32:49Unless you both give us incorrect answers. Then I'll have to find anther question from somewhere.
0:32:49 > 0:32:53Thanks very much indeed, Richard. Let's reveal our five clues to facts about Essex.
0:32:53 > 0:32:54We've got...
0:33:12 > 0:33:14I'll read those all one final time.
0:33:32 > 0:33:35So there we are. Five clues to facts about Essex.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37This time, Michael and Geoff, you go first.
0:33:39 > 0:33:40THEY CONFER
0:33:42 > 0:33:46OK. We're going to go for the comedian born near Harlow,
0:33:46 > 0:33:49who starred with Ade Edmondson in Bottom. It's Rik Mayall.
0:33:49 > 0:33:51Rik Mayall, say Michael and Geoff.
0:33:51 > 0:33:55Rik Mayall. Slim and Marianne, talk us through that board, if you can.
0:33:55 > 0:33:59OK. Well, we think the weapon on the county's coat of arms
0:33:59 > 0:34:01is swords.
0:34:01 > 0:34:03And TOWIE is The Only Way Is Essex.
0:34:03 > 0:34:07And we think the bridge is called the Queen Elizabeth II Bridge,
0:34:07 > 0:34:10but we're going to go for swords on the...
0:34:10 > 0:34:13You're going to go for swords on the coat of arms.
0:34:13 > 0:34:16So, Rik Mayall, say Michael and Geoff.
0:34:16 > 0:34:17Let's see if that's right,
0:34:17 > 0:34:19and let's see how many said it.
0:34:21 > 0:34:22It's right.
0:34:25 > 0:34:2636.
0:34:29 > 0:34:3136.
0:34:31 > 0:34:33The crucial thing - that was right.
0:34:33 > 0:34:35And Slim and Marianne have taken a bit of a punt.
0:34:35 > 0:34:39Swords, you are saying, feature on the coat of arms of the county.
0:34:39 > 0:34:42Let's find out if that's right, and if it is, how many people said swords.
0:34:44 > 0:34:45It's right.
0:34:46 > 0:34:48Is that going to beat 36?
0:34:48 > 0:34:50Yes, it is! Very well done indeed.
0:34:50 > 0:34:52Down it goes to 19.
0:34:54 > 0:34:56We have a result.
0:34:56 > 0:34:58Very well done, Slim and Marianne.
0:34:58 > 0:35:01After four questions, you are through to the final, 2-1.
0:35:01 > 0:35:05The official name of the bridge... It's often called the Dartford Crossing,
0:35:05 > 0:35:07but you're right, it's the Queen Elizabeth II Bridge.
0:35:07 > 0:35:09That would have scored you 7 points.
0:35:09 > 0:35:12You're right about TOWIE - it's The Only Way Is Essex.
0:35:12 > 0:35:13Would have scored you 58 points.
0:35:13 > 0:35:16The name of the ground that's home to Essex County Cricket Club -
0:35:16 > 0:35:18used to be called the County Ground,
0:35:18 > 0:35:21now it's called the Ford County Ground. That would have scored you 4.
0:35:21 > 0:35:23Thanks very much indeed, Richard.
0:35:23 > 0:35:25So, at the end of our head-to-head round,
0:35:25 > 0:35:28I'm afraid the losing pair leaving us is Michael and Geoff.
0:35:28 > 0:35:30You've had a great game, though.
0:35:30 > 0:35:33The big high of that was Bronagh Gallagher.
0:35:33 > 0:35:35I can say it now!
0:35:35 > 0:35:37But I'm afraid this is where we have to say goodbye.
0:35:37 > 0:35:40It's been great having you on the show. Michael and Geoff.
0:35:44 > 0:35:47But for Slim and Marianne, it's now time for our Pointless final.
0:35:51 > 0:35:53Congratulations, Slim and Marianne.
0:35:53 > 0:35:57You've beaten off all the competition and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:36:03 > 0:36:05You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot,
0:36:05 > 0:36:09and at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £4,250.
0:36:13 > 0:36:15This is great news. You've done fantastically well.
0:36:15 > 0:36:18You've come all the way through, and here you are in the final.
0:36:18 > 0:36:22I'm always a bit disappointed when this happens, because it means we only get you for one show.
0:36:22 > 0:36:25To win that money, all you have to do is find a pointless answer.
0:36:25 > 0:36:28First you have a choose a category. Here are your five options.
0:36:36 > 0:36:38- OK, well...- Got to be royal families.
0:36:38 > 0:36:39Yeah, I think...
0:36:39 > 0:36:43royal families is the one we'll be able to...
0:36:43 > 0:36:45- We'll give royal families a punt. - OK.
0:36:45 > 0:36:50Royal families. Let's find out what the question is. We gave 100 people 100 seconds
0:36:50 > 0:36:52to name as many...
0:36:55 > 0:36:56..as they could.
0:36:56 > 0:36:57Oh, Richard!
0:36:57 > 0:37:01Yeah, we're looking for the name of any monarch, or the living spouse of a monarch,
0:37:01 > 0:37:05who's the head of state of any European country.
0:37:05 > 0:37:07Very, very best of luck.
0:37:07 > 0:37:10OK. You now have up to one minute to come up with three answers.
0:37:10 > 0:37:12All you need to win that £4,250
0:37:12 > 0:37:15is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
0:37:15 > 0:37:16Are you ready?
0:37:18 > 0:37:19Let's put 60 seconds on the clock.
0:37:19 > 0:37:21Your time starts now.
0:37:21 > 0:37:22I don't know any.
0:37:22 > 0:37:25Well, obviously, our own ones.
0:37:25 > 0:37:26Yeah.
0:37:26 > 0:37:29I can think of all the royal kings and queens...
0:37:29 > 0:37:31Juan Carlos of Spain.
0:37:31 > 0:37:33So let's say Isabella
0:37:33 > 0:37:35- as his wife.- OK.
0:37:35 > 0:37:37That's a Spanish name. And which other...?
0:37:37 > 0:37:38What about Denmark?
0:37:38 > 0:37:41Sweden...
0:37:41 > 0:37:42Who's still got a king and queen?
0:37:42 > 0:37:44All the Scandinavian countries.
0:37:44 > 0:37:46Name a king or queen.
0:37:46 > 0:37:47Um...
0:37:48 > 0:37:50Carl Gustaf?
0:37:50 > 0:37:52- Of...?- Sweden.
0:37:52 > 0:37:54I don't know his wife's name.
0:37:54 > 0:37:55Ingrid.
0:37:55 > 0:37:58We've got to give the spouse as well?
0:37:58 > 0:38:00Ingrid. Carl Gustaf of Sweden and Ingrid.
0:38:00 > 0:38:02Juan Carlos of Spain and...
0:38:04 > 0:38:07- Who did you say?- I like Marianna, actually.
0:38:07 > 0:38:09Marianna.
0:38:09 > 0:38:11And, um...
0:38:11 > 0:38:1210 seconds left.
0:38:12 > 0:38:15Name another place that's got a king or queen.
0:38:15 > 0:38:16Holland.
0:38:16 > 0:38:19OK. Beatrice. Queen Beatrice of Holland.
0:38:21 > 0:38:23OK, your time is up, I'm sorry to say.
0:38:23 > 0:38:25We were looking for European royals and their spouses.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27I now need your three answers.
0:38:27 > 0:38:32- OK, we're going to go King Juan Carlos of Spain...- Yes.
0:38:32 > 0:38:36- ..and his wife...- We only need the name of a king or a spouse.
0:38:36 > 0:38:39- Oh, different ball game!- OK.
0:38:39 > 0:38:41- OK, OK.- I thought that was really hard.
0:38:41 > 0:38:44Well, were you not listening to what I said?
0:38:44 > 0:38:46Well, I was, but... Well, I sort of was.
0:38:46 > 0:38:48But then... Yeah.
0:38:48 > 0:38:51- OK, so I'm handing over to Slim, who knows the kings.- Slim.
0:38:53 > 0:38:55Right, Juan Carlos of Spain.
0:38:55 > 0:38:58- Beatrice.- Beatrice.
0:38:58 > 0:39:00- Of Holland.- Of the Netherlands, yeah.
0:39:00 > 0:39:03And I'll go for Carl Gustaf
0:39:03 > 0:39:05of Sweden.
0:39:05 > 0:39:07And Carl Gustaf of Sweden.
0:39:07 > 0:39:08And here they are.
0:39:08 > 0:39:09We have got...
0:39:17 > 0:39:19OK, so we were looking for European royals
0:39:19 > 0:39:21and their spouses.
0:39:21 > 0:39:23Your first answer was Juan Carlos of Spain.
0:39:23 > 0:39:26You only have to find one pointless answer
0:39:26 > 0:39:28to win that jackpot of £4,250.
0:39:28 > 0:39:32So let's see how many people said Juan Carlos of Spain.
0:39:32 > 0:39:34Is it pointless?
0:39:35 > 0:39:37It's right.
0:39:44 > 0:39:46Down it goes. If this goes down to zero...
0:39:46 > 0:39:47Oh! 12.
0:39:47 > 0:39:49Well done!
0:39:52 > 0:39:54So only two more chances to win today's jackpot.
0:39:54 > 0:39:57£4,250 - now, that's a decent jackpot.
0:39:57 > 0:39:58Slim, what would you do with that?
0:39:58 > 0:40:00We've lots of ideas on what we can do with it,
0:40:00 > 0:40:03but I expect the kids will end up getting it!
0:40:03 > 0:40:06Marianne, anything you'd like to ring-fence now, while you can?
0:40:06 > 0:40:10- I'd love to go to New Orleans, Alexander.- So would I.
0:40:10 > 0:40:11That would be good.
0:40:11 > 0:40:12Without the kids!
0:40:14 > 0:40:16So we're looking for European royals.
0:40:16 > 0:40:19Let's hope nobody said your next answer -
0:40:19 > 0:40:21Carl Gustaf of Sweden.
0:40:22 > 0:40:25Now again, this has to be right then it has to be pointless
0:40:25 > 0:40:27for you to win that jackpot of £4,250.
0:40:27 > 0:40:30Let's find out how many people said Carl Gustaf of Sweden.
0:40:33 > 0:40:34It's right.
0:40:34 > 0:40:37Now, Juan Carlos led us a merry dance
0:40:37 > 0:40:38all the way down to 12.
0:40:38 > 0:40:41Carl Gustaf of Sweden, on the other hand,
0:40:41 > 0:40:43taking us down into single figures...
0:40:43 > 0:40:45If he goes down to zero...
0:40:45 > 0:40:46Oh! 3.
0:40:52 > 0:40:53The tease.
0:40:53 > 0:40:55Down to 3.
0:40:55 > 0:40:57So you only have one more chance to win today's jackpot.
0:40:57 > 0:41:00Everything is now riding on your third and final answer -
0:41:00 > 0:41:01Beatrice of the Netherlands.
0:41:01 > 0:41:05- Well, you thought this was your best shot at a pointless answer. - It's wrong!
0:41:05 > 0:41:08Why do you not think it's right - is it because she doesn't have a number after her name?
0:41:08 > 0:41:10Maybe.
0:41:10 > 0:41:11Yeah, actually.
0:41:11 > 0:41:15We'll find out. It has to be correct and it has to be pointless to win.
0:41:15 > 0:41:19So, for £4,250, let's find out how many people said Beatrice of the Netherlands.
0:41:19 > 0:41:20Is it pointless?
0:41:23 > 0:41:25Ooh! Marianne, you're right.
0:41:30 > 0:41:31Well...
0:41:33 > 0:41:35Two really good answers there.
0:41:35 > 0:41:39We'll discover what was wrong with Beatrice of the Netherlands.
0:41:39 > 0:41:42Unfortunately, you didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer,
0:41:42 > 0:41:45so I'm afraid you don't win today's jackpot of £4,250.
0:41:45 > 0:41:48That rolls over onto the next show. We've loved having you on the show.
0:41:48 > 0:41:51And, of course, you get to take home the trophy.
0:41:57 > 0:42:01Yeah, you've been brilliant. I hope your classes are watching as well and cheering you on.
0:42:01 > 0:42:05It's Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands. We couldn't accept Beatrice.
0:42:05 > 0:42:07She would have scored you 12 points anyway.
0:42:07 > 0:42:10She actually abdicated, but she was still queen when we did this poll.
0:42:10 > 0:42:12If you'd said Carl Gustaf's wife, Silvia,
0:42:12 > 0:42:14that would have been a pointless answer.
0:42:14 > 0:42:16But, you know, who knows that?
0:42:16 > 0:42:18Let's take a look at some of the pointless answers.
0:42:18 > 0:42:22There's some you might have got. Prince Albert of Belgium
0:42:22 > 0:42:24would have been a pointless answer.
0:42:24 > 0:42:26Hans-Adam II of Liechtenstein is a pointless answer.
0:42:26 > 0:42:28Henrik of Denmark is a pointless answer.
0:42:28 > 0:42:32Maria Teresa of Luxembourg is a pointless answer.
0:42:32 > 0:42:34Marie of Liechtenstein is a pointless answer.
