0:00:19 > 0:00:21APPLAUSE
0:00:22 > 0:00:25Thank you very much. I'm Alexander Armstrong.
0:00:25 > 0:00:28Welcome to Pointless, the quiz that puts obscure knowledge to the test.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30Let's meet today's players.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32APPLAUSE
0:00:34 > 0:00:35And couple number one.
0:00:35 > 0:00:39Hi, I'm Lewis, this is Tom. We're housemates. I'm from Basildon, he's from Cambridge.
0:00:39 > 0:00:41And couple number two.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44My name's Si, this is Denise. We are work colleagues from Somerset.
0:00:44 > 0:00:45Couple number three.
0:00:45 > 0:00:49Hi there, I'm Steve, this is Serena. We're a happily married couple from Cheshire.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51And finally couple number four.
0:00:51 > 0:00:56Hi, I'm Katie, this is my sister Joanna, and we're from Burscough in west Lancashire.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58And these are today's contestants.
0:00:58 > 0:01:00APPLAUSE
0:01:02 > 0:01:05We'll find out more about you throughout the show as it goes along.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07That leaves one more person for me to introduce.
0:01:07 > 0:01:12Cutting through the red tape of bureaucracy to bring you cold hard slabs of fact,
0:01:12 > 0:01:14- it's my Pointless friend, it's Richard.- Hiya.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16APPLAUSE Hi, everybody.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20- Good afternoon to you. - And to you!
0:01:20 > 0:01:23What a show we had last time. What an ending.
0:01:23 > 0:01:28We had Josie and Simon, the previous show they'd been knocked out flukily in the head-to-head.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31So they came back, got through to the jackpot round.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34Got three on their first answer, which was tough enough.
0:01:34 > 0:01:38Got one on their second answer. And one again on their third answer.
0:01:39 > 0:01:43They were lovely as well. Really unlucky. One of the unluckiest couples we've had so far.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46We've got two sets of pairs who were on that show as well.
0:01:46 > 0:01:51Denise and Si who got knocked out in the second round. They might do well today.
0:01:51 > 0:01:55We've also got Katie and Joanna who were members of the 200 club last time.
0:01:55 > 0:01:59So no pressure, ladies, on that end podium there.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02- So it should be a cracker. - It certainly should.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06Thanks. All our questions on Pointless have been put to 100 people before the show.
0:02:06 > 0:02:10Our contestants here need to find the obscure answers those 100 people didn't get.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12Now everyone's trying to find a pointless answer.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15That's an answer that none of our 100 people gave.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18And each time that happens we will add £250 to the jackpot.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21We haven't had a pointless answer for a while so let's have one this show.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23Josie and Simon didn't win the jackpot last time
0:02:23 > 0:02:25so we add another £1,000 to that.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29So today's jackpot starts off at £8,500.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31APPLAUSE
0:02:32 > 0:02:35Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44In this first round I'll take an answer from each of you but there is to be no conferring.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48At the end of the round whichever pair has the highest score will be heading home.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50So our first category today is...
0:02:53 > 0:02:57Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00And whoever's going first please step up to the podium.
0:03:04 > 0:03:06OK, and the question concerns...
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Actors who served in the military, Richard.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14On each part we're going to show you seven descriptions of actors
0:03:14 > 0:03:17who once served in the UK or US military.
0:03:17 > 0:03:21Just need to tell us the name of the actor. 14 in all to have a go at. Very best of luck.
0:03:21 > 0:03:26Thanks very much. We're looking for the names of these actors described in the clues on the board.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28And here is our first board of seven.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53I'll read those one last time.
0:04:12 > 0:04:13There we are.
0:04:13 > 0:04:17Seven actors who were in the military.
0:04:17 > 0:04:21Now then, Lewis and Tom, you all drew lots and today you're going first.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23Lewis, welcome to the show.
0:04:23 > 0:04:28You're from Basildon but you're studying at the University of Essex. What are you reading there?
0:04:28 > 0:04:30- I'm studying politics. - Politics.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33OK. And what do you get up to when you're not studying politics?
0:04:33 > 0:04:38A bit of everything. Politics, I have met some quite significant political figures.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40Met Gordon Brown and the Milliband brothers.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42I actually got shown up a bit by Gordon Brown on live telly.
0:04:42 > 0:04:47- What happened?- He was shaking a lot of people's hands as he came to my home town.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50I put my hand out and he walked past without shaking it
0:04:50 > 0:04:53and you see me return my hand behind my back.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55On live BBC news at the time as well.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57Tell you what, no wonder he lost!
0:04:57 > 0:04:59LAUGHTER
0:04:59 > 0:05:04Anyway, actors who were in the military. That's just a gift, isn't it?
0:05:04 > 0:05:08Quite the opposite. I have absolutely no idea.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11- I can basically have a complete wild guess.- You're going to have to.
0:05:11 > 0:05:15Top one I'm going to go for Frank Sinatra cos I've no idea.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18Frank Sinatra says Lewis. Frank Sinatra.
0:05:18 > 0:05:22Let's see if that's right and if it is how many of our 100 people said Frank Sinatra.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Bad luck, Lewis.
0:05:26 > 0:05:30I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer and that scores you the maximum of 100 points.
0:05:30 > 0:05:35Sorry, Lewis, I feel like you've put your hand out to Frank Sinatra and he's just walked on by.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37LAUGHTER
0:05:37 > 0:05:38Denise.
0:05:38 > 0:05:42Denise, welcome back. You and Si work together, we discovered last time.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44What do you do in your spare time?
0:05:44 > 0:05:50With me it's genealogy, family tree. Spend a lot of time tracing the family tree.
0:05:50 > 0:05:54- All over the world. - You've been international with this?
0:05:54 > 0:05:58- What's the furthest afield you've been?- Canada. The States.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01Been and met my cousins across there.
0:06:01 > 0:06:05That's exciting. Did you discover you had lots of things in common?
0:06:05 > 0:06:08Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11Anyway, Denise, what about this board?
0:06:11 > 0:06:12There's a couple on there I do like.
0:06:12 > 0:06:16Second one I'm going to go with Clark Gable.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18Clark Gable, says Denise.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22Let's see if that's right. Let's see how many people said Clark Gable.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25It's right.
0:06:29 > 0:06:30- 34! - APPLAUSE
0:06:32 > 0:06:34Not bad at all, Denise. 34 for Clark Gable.
0:06:35 > 0:06:40He trained as a photographer and aerial gunner in the army air force.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45Now then, Stephen, welcome. Welcome to the show. What do you do, Stephen?
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Hi, Alexander. I'm an antiquarian bookseller.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51Are you? Do you have a shop or do you do it...
0:06:51 > 0:06:55No, unfortunately in the world of the internet a shop is a waste of money, it's not worth it.
0:06:55 > 0:07:00So we do the online platforms, get stuff at auctions,
0:07:00 > 0:07:03sell it to people who want it from Japan, Australia, America, wherever.
0:07:03 > 0:07:07So it's a worldwide business. It's interesting to me, I love it.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Wow. Now, Stephen.
0:07:10 > 0:07:11What do you make of this board?
0:07:11 > 0:07:14There's a couple I'm hopeful of.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16If possible I'd like to go for the bottom one.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19His first film was George Bailey.
0:07:19 > 0:07:23I think that's James Stewart. I'm hoping it's James Stewart.
0:07:24 > 0:07:29James Stewart. Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said James Stewart.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32Absolutely right, Stephen.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39- 26! Our best score so far. - APPLAUSE
0:07:44 > 0:07:48Yes, twice received the distinguished Flying Cross, another person in the army air force.
0:07:48 > 0:07:53He first went along there and was rejected cos he was 5lbs too light for his height.
0:07:53 > 0:07:54He had to go away and put on weight.
0:07:55 > 0:07:56Nice problem.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59He had a very distinguished flying career.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02Thank you, Richard. Joanna.
0:08:02 > 0:08:06Here we are, back again. Time to redeem yourselves from last time.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08- Remind us what you do. - I'm a student at university.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11- And what are you studying? - Secondary education mathematics.
0:08:11 > 0:08:17- Mathematics. Now, how do you feel about these actors with a past in military?- Awful!
0:08:17 > 0:08:20- Oh no! - I'm going to have to take a guess.
0:08:21 > 0:08:25I'm going to go with starred in The Golden Girls as Dorothy. Audrey Hepburn.
0:08:25 > 0:08:30Audrey Hepburn. OK, well, let's see if that's right and how many of our 100 people said Audrey Hepburn.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34Oh!
0:08:34 > 0:08:36Bad luck. I'm afraid an incorrect answer.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Which means you score the maximum of 100 points.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43- Sorry, Joanna, that's the 300 club you're in now.- Yes!
0:08:43 > 0:08:46Just one step away.
0:08:46 > 0:08:50I think you'll be fine. You've got first pick on the next board. Should be OK.
0:08:50 > 0:08:54Not Audrey Hepburn. It's actually Bea Arthur from The Golden Girls.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57She would have scored you four points.
0:08:57 > 0:09:02Mr Bojangles, not Frank Sinatra. Frank Sinatra never served in the military.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05He had a perforated ear drum, never served.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07- It was...- Sammy Davis Jr. - Sammy Davis Jr, yes.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09That would have scored you 26.
0:09:09 > 0:09:14The former sailor, that is Tony Curtis. Would have scored you 16.
0:09:14 > 0:09:18The guy who played Cliff Huxtable was Bill Cosby.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20Would have scored you 37.
0:09:20 > 0:09:24- And wrote and starred in Robin Hood and Blazing Saddles.- Mel Brooks.
0:09:24 > 0:09:25Would have scored you 28.
0:09:25 > 0:09:29Thank you very much. Halfway through the round, let's take a look at the scores.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Only three scores between the four of you.
0:09:31 > 0:09:3426 the lowest score of that pass, Stephen. Well done.
0:09:34 > 0:09:39Stephen and Serena looking quite strong, as indeed are Denise and Si on 34.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43Then up to 100 where we find Lewis and Tom and Joanna and Katie.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45So yes, Katie, you get first pick of the board.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47Use it wisely. Best of luck with that.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50We're going to come back down the line. Second players step up to the podium.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56Let's put seven more clues on the board. And here they are.
0:10:21 > 0:10:22I'll read those one last time.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48Seven actors with a military background. Now then.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50Katie.
0:10:50 > 0:10:55Katie, it's over to you. Now you are also studying to be a maths teacher.
0:10:55 > 0:10:56I am.
0:10:56 > 0:11:00And it would have been nice if GCSE mathematics came up
0:11:00 > 0:11:03cos I think we would have done a lot better!
0:11:03 > 0:11:09I think I know the bottom one but I don't want to risk it.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11So I'm going to go with the one that most people will know
0:11:11 > 0:11:14but it's the only one I can be sure about.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17Which is nicknamed The King, which is Elvis Presley.
0:11:17 > 0:11:22OK. Elvis Presley. Nicknamed The King, says Katie.
0:11:22 > 0:11:27No red line, joint high scorers. Let's see how many people recognised The King as Elvis Presley.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31It's right.
0:11:32 > 0:11:33- 65! - APPLAUSE
0:11:35 > 0:11:3765 takes your total up to 165.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41It's not 200, it keeps you in the game.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43So well done. Yeah, he was in the US army for a couple of years.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46They offered him a chance to go into a special unit and entertain the troops.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49He said, "No, I want to be a regular soldier."
0:11:49 > 0:11:53Serena, good news for you. You're through to the next round.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56Even if you score 100 points you won't overtake the high score of Katie and Joanna.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58So what do you do, Serena?
0:11:58 > 0:12:04I'm a sales exec for a food manufacture who make sauces for chefs.
0:12:04 > 0:12:08Sauces for chefs! Not for the likes for us, just for chefs?
0:12:08 > 0:12:10Some of them are available retail now.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13Fair enough. Serena, what about this board here?
0:12:13 > 0:12:16There's a couple I think I know.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18The one I think I'll go for is
0:12:18 > 0:12:21the colourblind actor who had his own range of salad dressings.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23I think it's Paul Newman.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26Paul Newman. Let's see if Paul Newman's right
0:12:26 > 0:12:29and let's see how many of our 100 people said Paul Newman.
0:12:31 > 0:12:32It's right.
0:12:36 > 0:12:37- 35! - APPLAUSE
0:12:40 > 0:12:4235 takes your total up to 61.
0:12:42 > 0:12:43Well played, Serena.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46No one less qualified to be in The Color Of Money than Paul Newman.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50He enlisted four days before his 18th birthday,
0:12:50 > 0:12:53and he couldn't get his pilot's wings because of the colour blindness.
0:12:53 > 0:12:57His entire squadron was called to an aircraft carrier.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59His entire squadron wiped out by a kamikaze attack.
0:12:59 > 0:13:02And he missed it cos his pilot on that day was ill so he was grounded.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04But the entire squadron.
0:13:06 > 0:13:10Si. Si. Good news for you. You're also through to the next round.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13What do you do in your spare time?
0:13:13 > 0:13:17We do a lot of charity work through the store
0:13:17 > 0:13:20just for, you know, just trying to raise money.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23I like to get involved with that, raise as much as we can.
0:13:23 > 0:13:29- I do the occasional 10k run if I can get fit enough.- Well done.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31That's kind of it. I love football, big Liverpool fan.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34Sorry, Richard.
0:13:35 > 0:13:39I don't mind Liverpool, that's OK. Not really anyone's natural enemies any more.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42When they used to be good, people would be booing, but now...
0:13:42 > 0:13:44- LAUGHTER - Yeah, we were.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47That's when you know the glory days are gone when everyone goes, "Fine."
0:13:47 > 0:13:51Si, so... What are you going to go for here?
0:13:51 > 0:13:55One of them has gone that I knew. The only other one I know...
0:13:55 > 0:13:59I'm a big fan. I hope it's right. It's the bottom one.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01Which I'm hoping is Jon Pertwee.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04Jon Pertwee says Si. Jon Pertwee.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06No red line for you because you're also through.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09Let's see if that's right and how many people said it.
0:14:10 > 0:14:11It is right.
0:14:16 > 0:14:1917! Very well done! Best score so far.
0:14:19 > 0:14:2117 for Jon Pertwee.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Takes your total up to 51.
0:14:23 > 0:14:27He was a member of the naval intelligence during World War Two.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29Alongside Ian Fleming.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31Reporting directly to Churchill.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33So he had quite the war.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35- Quite the war. - Quite the war.
0:14:37 > 0:14:38Now then, Tom, we have a game on.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41- We have a game on here. - I don't think we do!
0:14:42 > 0:14:45Oh, don't say that, Tom! Don't say that.
0:14:45 > 0:14:46Now, Tom, what do you do?
0:14:46 > 0:14:49I'm a student of sport and exercise science.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52What's that involve, typically? What does that...
0:14:52 > 0:14:57Mainly it's anatomy and physiology, biomechanics, how you walk, how you run.
0:14:57 > 0:15:01- So tends towards more medical side of sports.- Kind of, yeah.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03OK, interesting.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06When you're not doing that, what do you do? I imagine sport's a big part.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08I play football and cricket.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10Mainly cricket nowadays.
0:15:10 > 0:15:14OK, now then, listen, Tom. Let's just think this through.
0:15:14 > 0:15:20Just have a little pause on each one just in case something inspires you.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24You have to score 64 or less.
0:15:24 > 0:15:28Or it'll be goodbye to Tom and Lewis.
0:15:28 > 0:15:29I think it is, I'm afraid.
0:15:29 > 0:15:34I had an answer for the bottom one, wasn't right. Knew Elvis.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36Was going to go for Paul Newman.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39I would have said Loyd Grossman so that's not even close.
0:15:39 > 0:15:40LAUGHTER
0:15:40 > 0:15:42Salad dressings, I thought why not.
0:15:42 > 0:15:43Erm...
0:15:45 > 0:15:46I don't know.
0:15:46 > 0:15:53I'm going to go for portrayed Lieutenant Colonel Bill Kilgore in Apocalypse Now. Patrick Stewart.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55Patrick Stewart. Patrick Stewart, says Tom.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57Here is your red line.
0:15:58 > 0:16:02That's where you have to go, below that, to remain on the show.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05Let's see. Patrick Stewart. Is it right? If it is, how many people said it?
0:16:07 > 0:16:12No! Bad luck. An incorrect answer scores you 100 points.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14Takes your total up to 200.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17Sorry, Tom. That sounds quite convincing, Patrick Stewart.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19Sort of like an acceptable answer.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21This round obviously a lot of older actors.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23I think cos of the very nature of having served in the military.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26So let's take a look through the rest of this board.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29I know some people will have got everything on these rounds
0:16:29 > 0:16:32and some will have been engaging damage limitation.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35- Played Moses in The Ten Commandments.- Charlton Heston.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37Charlton Heston, yes. He would have scored you 26.
0:16:37 > 0:16:41Now, Lieutenant Bill Kilgore in Apocalypse Now. Harder one, that.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43Robert Duvall.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46He would have scored you one point. It's the best answer up there, that one.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50- Yakety Sax is the theme tune. - Benny Hill?
0:16:50 > 0:16:54Benny Hill! That's what that song's called. Eight points.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57- And won an Oscar for The African Queen.- Humphrey Bogart?
0:16:57 > 0:17:00Yes, and that would have scored you 18. Very well done if you got all those at home.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03Thanks very much, Richard. At the end of our first round I'm sorry to say
0:17:03 > 0:17:07the pair leaving us with their high score of 200 are Tom and Lewis.
0:17:07 > 0:17:13That was a tough board. As Richard said, they were all of a much older generation, those actors.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16I wanted your one. Bill Cosby.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18- You'd have got that one if you'd gone the other way round?- Yeah.
0:17:18 > 0:17:23- Lewis, would you have been any good on that board?- I'd have got all of them but Tom wanted to go second.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25I couldn't do anything about it so...
0:17:25 > 0:17:28Tom and Lewis, we have to say goodbye. We'll see you again next time.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31Thanks very much for playing, Tom and Lewis.
0:17:31 > 0:17:32APPLAUSE
0:17:33 > 0:17:36Right, for the remaining three pairs, it's now time for round two.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38APPLAUSE
0:17:41 > 0:17:43So now we're down to three pairs.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46Katie and Joanna, this is it, this is round two!
0:17:46 > 0:17:47We're so happy to be here!
0:17:47 > 0:17:50Great to have you. We're very happy that you made it through.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52It was looking a bit tense at one stage.
0:17:52 > 0:17:55- It was my fault. - You did it. Very well done.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57Denise and Si, you made it through to round two last time.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59But no further so best of luck to you.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02And Stephen and Serena, good stuff, keep it up.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04Best of luck to all three pairs.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06Our category for round two is...
0:18:09 > 0:18:12Can you all decide who's going to go first, who's going to go second.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15And whoever's going first step up to the podium.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name...
0:18:28 > 0:18:31Olympic host cities that were not capital cities. Richard.
0:18:31 > 0:18:35We're looking for the name of any official host city of any summer or winter Olympics
0:18:35 > 0:18:37from 1896 all the way through to 2012
0:18:37 > 0:18:40that was not the capital of its country.
0:18:40 > 0:18:41Very very best of luck.
0:18:41 > 0:18:43Thanks very much indeed.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45So Si.
0:18:45 > 0:18:49I've got a few definites on my mind that I'm thinking of.
0:18:50 > 0:18:51That could be right.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54- Los Angeles. - Los Angeles says Si.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58Let's see if that's right and let's see how many of our 100 people said Los Angeles.
0:19:00 > 0:19:01It's right.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09Si, look at that, 17! Very well done! That's a great answer.
0:19:12 > 0:19:16Yeah, they held the summer Olympics twice in 1932 and 1984.
0:19:16 > 0:19:211932 was the first time they ever stood on podiums and had their flags raised in the medal ceremonies.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24And 1984's the first time they had women's synchronised swimming so...
0:19:24 > 0:19:28- Both powerful movements forward for the Olympics.- Good.
0:19:28 > 0:19:32Thanks very much indeed. Simon, well done. Now, Stephen.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35An Olympic host city. Not a capital.
0:19:36 > 0:19:41I would like to stick in North America and I would like to go for Atlanta, please.
0:19:41 > 0:19:45Atlanta, says Stephen. Let's see if Atlanta's right and how many of our 100 people said it.
0:19:47 > 0:19:48It's right.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54- 25! - APPLAUSE
0:19:59 > 0:20:04Yeah, 1996. It was actually first ever Olympics where every nation who could participate did participate.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07- That was a good thing to bring to the party.- It's nice.
0:20:07 > 0:20:10The capital of the state of Georgia.
0:20:11 > 0:20:12Now then, Katie.
0:20:12 > 0:20:13Hi.
0:20:14 > 0:20:15HE LAUGHS
0:20:15 > 0:20:18Katie, how we feeling about this?
0:20:18 > 0:20:20Erm, all right...
0:20:21 > 0:20:23Erm, I'm going with one
0:20:24 > 0:20:28that I think a lot of people
0:20:28 > 0:20:32think is the capital but it's not, which is Sydney.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35Sydney.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38Sydney. Let's see, is that right? If it is, how many people said it?
0:20:41 > 0:20:42It's right, Katie.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49There we are. 23. Very well done.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Well done. 2000, the Sydney Olympics.
0:20:54 > 0:20:59The Australian foreign minister said they were demonstrably better than the 2012 London games.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02Demonstrably? That's a big word.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Especially when it's incorrect as well.
0:21:04 > 0:21:08- Yeah.- I suppose if you're an Australian it was better cos it was nearer.
0:21:09 > 0:21:14- It was easier to commute. - Much easier. Demonstrably better?
0:21:14 > 0:21:16I think they're all good on their own merits.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19Ours was... Ours was pretty good.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21They weren't bad, were they?
0:21:21 > 0:21:25And the Australians did really badly at ours as well.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28Which is another quite good thing.
0:21:28 > 0:21:29LAUGHTER
0:21:30 > 0:21:32They did demonstrably badly.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34LAUGHTER
0:21:34 > 0:21:37We're halfway through the round. Let's take a look at the scores.
0:21:37 > 0:21:3917 the best score from Si, very well done.
0:21:39 > 0:21:44Denise and Si looking strong. Maybe you'll make it through to the head-to-head this time.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46Then up to 23 where we find Katie and Joanna
0:21:46 > 0:21:49then up to 25 where we find Stephen and Serena.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51So, yes, all pretty tightly grouped together there.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54Best of luck to all pairs. We're coming back down the line.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56Can the second players please take their places.
0:21:59 > 0:22:03Now, Joanna, we're looking for Olympic host cities that weren't capital cities.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06Again, they can be summer or winter.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09I've got one but I'm sure it's a capital city so...
0:22:09 > 0:22:11Not that one.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13I can't think of any more.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15The high scorers are Stephen and Serena on 25.
0:22:15 > 0:22:20If you can score one or less you'll avoid becoming the new high scorers.
0:22:20 > 0:22:24I'm going to have to go with the one in my head. Guess Beijing.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27OK, you're going to go for Beijing.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31There is your red line. It's very low.
0:22:31 > 0:22:35Let's see if Beijing's right and let's see how many of our 100 people said Beijing.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42Sorry, that's an incorrect answer. Scores you the maximum of 100 points.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44Takes your total up to 123.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47Sorry, Joanna, that's the capital of China.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49It did hold an Olympics though.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52Now then, Serena.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55If you can score 97 or less, you are through to the head-to-head.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57How do we feel about this as a round?
0:22:57 > 0:23:00- I've only got one. - That might be all you need.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03Yeah. I'm going to go for Munich.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05Munich, says Serena. Munich.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08Let's see if that's right, let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13It is right and you are in the head-to-head. Very well done.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19- Ten! - APPLAUSE
0:23:19 > 0:23:22Straight answer takes your total up to 35.
0:23:24 > 0:23:261972. Well done, Serena.
0:23:26 > 0:23:30Thanks very much. Now then, Denise. Great news for you. You are through to the head-to-head.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33You won't be overtaking Joanna and Katie's score.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Even if you get an incorrect answer.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37So what are you thinking, Denise?
0:23:37 > 0:23:40Well, this would have been probably my worst category.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42Sport and me just don't do.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45So thanks, girls, but I'm sorry.
0:23:45 > 0:23:49I'd like to try and I don't even know if it is a place.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51- Whistler? - Whistler?
0:23:53 > 0:23:57Let's see if Whistler's right and if it is let's see how many people said it. No red line for you.
0:23:59 > 0:24:03No. Bad luck, Denise, an incorrect answer scores you the maximum 100 points.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06Takes your total to 117. But you're already through.
0:24:06 > 0:24:10Yeah, sorry, it is a place though and actually everyone else has gone for summer Olympic cities.
0:24:10 > 0:24:14The winter Olympic cities are where all the pointless answers are.
0:24:14 > 0:24:15That's where all the good answers are.
0:24:15 > 0:24:20Let's take a look at some of the winter Olympic cities that were pointless. Well done if you got any.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27All of those would have been pointless.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29All those hosted winter Olympics, as did Nagano.
0:24:29 > 0:24:33There's a US winter Olympics one, Squaw Valley.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35Some lower scorers as well.
0:24:35 > 0:24:39The best summer Olympics venue was Antwerp, which would have scored you three points.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41There's a few other winter Olympic ones.
0:24:41 > 0:24:45Abbeville, Sapporo, Chamonix, St Maritz would have scored you three.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48Sarajevo which wasn't a capital then would have scored you three.
0:24:48 > 0:24:51Lake Placid and Turin would have scored you four. Innsbruck five.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54Lillehammer would have scored you five, as would Salt Lake City.
0:24:54 > 0:24:57We've seen the top three already.
0:24:57 > 0:25:00Let's go through the ones that most of our 100 people said.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08Thanks very much indeed. So at the end of our second round I'm afraid it's Joanna and Katie
0:25:08 > 0:25:11who will be leaving us with a high score of 123.
0:25:11 > 0:25:15You did twice as well. You did twice as well this time.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18We're happy! We're happy to be on it so...
0:25:18 > 0:25:22It's been lovely having you. Thank you so much for playing. Great contestants. Joanna and Katie.
0:25:22 > 0:25:23APPLAUSE
0:25:25 > 0:25:27But for the remaining two pairs it's now time for the head-to-head.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29APPLAUSE
0:25:33 > 0:25:37Congratulations, Stephen and Serena, Denise and Si. You are one step closer to the final
0:25:37 > 0:25:41and a chance of playing for our jackpot which stands at £8,500.
0:25:41 > 0:25:42APPLAUSE
0:25:44 > 0:25:47We have to decide which pair's going to play for that money.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49To do that you're now going to go head to head.
0:25:49 > 0:25:54You're now allowed to confer. The first pair to win two questions will play for that money.
0:25:54 > 0:25:58Best of luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06OK, here comes your first question. And it concerns...
0:26:09 > 0:26:11Summits and meetings. Richard.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14We'll show you five pictures of summits or meetings between world leaders.
0:26:14 > 0:26:18You need to tell us the decade in which each of these photographs were shot.
0:26:19 > 0:26:24OK, now, let's reveal our five summits or meetings and here they are.
0:26:24 > 0:26:25We have got...
0:26:43 > 0:26:45There we are, five summits or meetings.
0:26:45 > 0:26:50We need the decades in which they took place. Stephen and Serena, you played best so far, so you go first.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08We think that B is the 1970s.
0:27:09 > 0:27:12OK, the 1970s for B.
0:27:12 > 0:27:141970s. Now then, Denise and Si.
0:27:14 > 0:27:18Do you want to talk us through the board and give us a guess at each one
0:27:18 > 0:27:20and tell us which you want to submit.
0:27:20 > 0:27:23A we think might be the 80s.
0:27:25 > 0:27:29C we're going to go for because there's Kennedy. John FK there.
0:27:31 > 0:27:35We're thinking that's probably the 60s.
0:27:35 > 0:27:37C, the 1960s.
0:27:37 > 0:27:41C, the 1960s. So, Steve and Serena said the 1970s for B.
0:27:41 > 0:27:45Let's see if that's right and if it is let's see how many of our 100 people said the 1970s.
0:27:47 > 0:27:48It's right.
0:27:52 > 0:27:53- 26! - APPLAUSE
0:27:57 > 0:27:5826 for the 1970s.
0:27:58 > 0:28:02Now, Denise and Si, you said the 1960s for C.
0:28:02 > 0:28:06Let's see if that's right and let's see how many of our 100 people said the 1960s.
0:28:08 > 0:28:09It is right.
0:28:11 > 0:28:12- 65, wow! - APPLAUSE
0:28:15 > 0:28:19Well, that means, Stephen and Serena, after one question you're up one nil. Richard.
0:28:19 > 0:28:24That's Kennedy meeting Khrushchev and Edward Heath signing us into the Common Market. 70s and 60s.
0:28:24 > 0:28:27A is the 2000s.
0:28:27 > 0:28:30The noughties. That would have scored you 40 points.
0:28:30 > 0:28:32There's Putin, Bush, all sorts of people.
0:28:32 > 0:28:35D, John Major there.
0:28:35 > 0:28:37Which makes it the 90s.
0:28:37 > 0:28:41NATO summit, Douglas Hurd there as well. 34 points would have scored you.
0:28:41 > 0:28:45And E, that's the signing of the Treaty of Versailles.
0:28:45 > 0:28:49David Lloyd George there. 1919. 1910s was the answer there.
0:28:49 > 0:28:52Would have scored you 13 points. Very well done if you got all of those.
0:28:52 > 0:28:57Thanks very much indeed. Here comes your second question. Denise and Si, you get to answer first.
0:28:57 > 0:29:00But you have to win it to stay in the game. Best of luck. It concerns...
0:29:05 > 0:29:07Adjectives beginning with Q. Richard.
0:29:07 > 0:29:12We'll show you five words listed as adjectives in the Oxford Dictionary of English beginning with Q.
0:29:12 > 0:29:16We've removed alternate letters. Can you guess what these five words are, please.
0:29:16 > 0:29:20OK, let's reveal our five words beginning with Q and here they are.
0:29:35 > 0:29:37I'll read those all one last time.
0:29:47 > 0:29:49Now then, Denise and Si, you go first this time.
0:29:55 > 0:29:59We know the first and the fourth one.
0:30:00 > 0:30:02Which are probably going to be pretty high.
0:30:06 > 0:30:08We're going to have to go with the top one.
0:30:09 > 0:30:12- Quilt. - Quilt.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15OK, Denise and Si are saying quilt.
0:30:15 > 0:30:18Now, Stephen and Serena. Talk us through the board.
0:30:20 > 0:30:24We think the first one is quiet.
0:30:26 > 0:30:28The second one quintessential.
0:30:30 > 0:30:32The third one I'm not sure about.
0:30:34 > 0:30:35Quick.
0:30:35 > 0:30:38And we think the bottom one might be quantifiable.
0:30:38 > 0:30:42- I think that's the one we'll go for. - You're going for quantifiable.
0:30:42 > 0:30:44So we have quilt versus quantifiable.
0:30:44 > 0:30:49Denis and Si said quilt. Let's see if that's right and let's see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:30:51 > 0:30:54Bad luck! I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer.
0:30:54 > 0:30:59Which means, Stephen and Serena, you merely have to be correct with quantifiable.
0:30:59 > 0:31:02Let's see if it's right. Let's also see how many of our 100 people said it.
0:31:04 > 0:31:05Well done, it is right.
0:31:10 > 0:31:13Three! Very well done indeed!
0:31:15 > 0:31:20But also very well done because after only two questions you are through to the final two nil.
0:31:20 > 0:31:21Well played, Stephen and Serena.
0:31:21 > 0:31:25Quilt is a noun and a verb but not an adjective, I'm afraid.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28Makes me feel very quilty but that's the case.
0:31:28 > 0:31:30Quilted would be the adjective.
0:31:30 > 0:31:35So quiet is the top answer. Would have scored you 33.
0:31:35 > 0:31:39You're right about quintessential. That would have scored you 18.
0:31:39 > 0:31:42Let's leave the next one for a moment. That's the best answer.
0:31:42 > 0:31:46You were right about quick. Biggest scorer though. Score of 86.
0:31:46 > 0:31:49Now this last one, this last one scores one point.
0:31:49 > 0:31:51- Do you know it? - Quarrelsome.
0:31:51 > 0:31:55Quarrelsome, yes, absolutely right. Would have scored one.
0:31:55 > 0:31:58- Very well done to anyone who got all those at home.- Thanks very much indeed.
0:31:58 > 0:32:02So at the end of our head-to-head round I'm afraid the pair leaving us are Denise and Si.
0:32:02 > 0:32:04You played so well today.
0:32:04 > 0:32:07I'm afraid it really is goodbye this time. Thank you so much for playing.
0:32:07 > 0:32:09- Denise and Si. - APPLAUSE
0:32:12 > 0:32:14For Stephen and Serena, it's time for our Pointless final.
0:32:14 > 0:32:17APPLAUSE
0:32:19 > 0:32:21Congratulations, Stephen and Serena.
0:32:21 > 0:32:24You've seen off the competition and you've won our coveted Pointless trophy.
0:32:30 > 0:32:36You now have a chance to win our jackpot and at the end of today's show the jackpot stands at £8,500.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38APPLAUSE
0:32:40 > 0:32:43I think we've put you through your paces today, haven't we?
0:32:43 > 0:32:46- I'm trying to think what we had. We had...- Military.
0:32:46 > 0:32:53Military actors. Olympic host cities. Political meetings and summits.
0:32:53 > 0:32:55And then we had adjectives.
0:32:56 > 0:33:01Now, Stephen, if people want to buy these antiquarian books, I won't get chance to ask you next show,
0:33:01 > 0:33:06do you have pictures of them online and then people can then...
0:33:06 > 0:33:09I stick a picture up, say when it was made and what the condition's like.
0:33:09 > 0:33:12Beautiful leather bound, five raised bands, marble pages.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15Have you learnt all about this just through buying and selling?
0:33:15 > 0:33:19- Or did you have an interest?- I've always been into books. I was a very dull teenage student.
0:33:19 > 0:33:24When I was a student I'd go to Blackwalls bookshop, I'd go to Foyles in London.
0:33:24 > 0:33:27- I've always loved books.- Oh, Serena, I'm sorry, are we keeping you up?
0:33:27 > 0:33:29LAUGHTER
0:33:29 > 0:33:32I live with it all the time, Alexander, this is what it's like.
0:33:33 > 0:33:36Now, Serena, secretly you love antiquarian books, don't you?
0:33:36 > 0:33:39- I used to work in publishing so... - Course, yes, you did.
0:33:39 > 0:33:40That's where you met.
0:33:40 > 0:33:44I was children's books so slightly less antiquarian.
0:33:44 > 0:33:46OK.
0:33:46 > 0:33:50Well, listen, back to our final round. There's a lovely big jackpot there.
0:33:50 > 0:33:53As always, you have to start this round by choosing a category.
0:33:53 > 0:33:55You have four options. They are...
0:34:00 > 0:34:02Wow.
0:34:06 > 0:34:07Stephen.
0:34:11 > 0:34:12God.
0:34:12 > 0:34:17I would go for Africa because I know about that but you know more about modern children's literature.
0:34:17 > 0:34:19Oh, I don't know. What do you want to do?
0:34:19 > 0:34:20It's up to you, darling.
0:34:20 > 0:34:24- Go for literature.- We'll go for modern children's literature.
0:34:24 > 0:34:27You have to, don't you? Come on, Serena.
0:34:27 > 0:34:28Pressure's on me then.
0:34:28 > 0:34:34It's good to have pressure on. What if there was no pressure and it was three things you had no idea about?
0:34:34 > 0:34:35Come on, it'll be brilliant.
0:34:35 > 0:34:38Best of luck. You've gone for modern children's literature. Richard.
0:34:38 > 0:34:41It's a good choice now we have three choices within each category.
0:34:41 > 0:34:45You would hope something would come up you might know about. I hope you know about these.
0:34:45 > 0:34:49Any of the 13 published novels in the Lemony Snicket series.
0:34:49 > 0:34:53We are looking for any of Charlie Higson's Young Bond books.
0:34:53 > 0:34:59Or any book by Julia Donaldson and her regular illustrator Axel Scheffler.
0:35:08 > 0:35:13Not the spin-offs when they have colouring books but the regular books by those two.
0:35:13 > 0:35:17Very best of luck. I hope there's something out there for you.
0:35:17 > 0:35:21OK, now as always, you've got up to a minute to come up with three answers
0:35:21 > 0:35:25and all you need to win that jackpot of £8,500, decent jackpot,
0:35:25 > 0:35:28is for one answer at least to be pointless.
0:35:28 > 0:35:32Now remember the answers you give can be for any of these categories.
0:35:32 > 0:35:35It can be three from one, two from one, one from another.
0:35:35 > 0:35:38It's up to you. Just say which category it's from when you submit the answer.
0:35:38 > 0:35:40- Are you ready? - Yes.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42Let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
0:35:42 > 0:35:44There they are, your time starts now.
0:35:45 > 0:35:49A Series Of Unfortunate Events. Is that the name of the whole series?
0:35:49 > 0:35:54- They've all got individual titles. - Really?- Yeah.- Oh no.
0:35:54 > 0:35:58Charlie Higson. I think I've got one in my mind called Silverfin.
0:35:59 > 0:36:03Ringing a bell. Whether that's that one or a different series I don't know.
0:36:03 > 0:36:05But we could say that.
0:36:05 > 0:36:08- Do you know any Julia Donaldson? - Room On A Broom is the only one I can think of.
0:36:09 > 0:36:13Who did... Is that recent, Julia Donaldson?
0:36:13 > 0:36:16Well, a little while ago. 15 years maybe.
0:36:16 > 0:36:18So Room On A Broom.
0:36:18 > 0:36:23And I would say The Gruffalo. Is that one of hers?
0:36:23 > 0:36:24No, that's...
0:36:27 > 0:36:30- Lemony Snicket. - A Series Of Unfortunate Events.
0:36:31 > 0:36:34- That's the only one, isn't it? - Ten seconds left.
0:36:35 > 0:36:37- OK, we'll have to go with that. - Do you not know any of the titles?
0:36:37 > 0:36:40- No. I can't remember any. - Oh dear.
0:36:42 > 0:36:47OK, that's your time up. So, I now need your three answers.
0:36:47 > 0:36:51We're going to do one from each category.
0:36:51 > 0:36:55So the first one would be A Series Of Unfortunate Events.
0:36:55 > 0:36:57A Series Of Unfortunate Events from the Lemony Snicket series.
0:36:57 > 0:37:00Charlie Higson's Young Bond, Silverfin.
0:37:00 > 0:37:01Silverfin.
0:37:01 > 0:37:05- And Julia Donaldson Room On A Broom. - Room On A Broom.
0:37:05 > 0:37:07OK. Now...
0:37:07 > 0:37:11- Of those three which do you think is your best shot at a pointless answer?- None of them!
0:37:11 > 0:37:12Erm...
0:37:12 > 0:37:14Silverfin, do you think?
0:37:14 > 0:37:17- I think Room On A Broom sounded... - It's very well known.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19- Is it?- Shall we go for Silver... OK, let's do that.
0:37:19 > 0:37:22At least we know it's correct. Room On A Broom.
0:37:22 > 0:37:24- Room On A Broom we'll put last. - Yeah.
0:37:27 > 0:37:30We'll put the Lemony Snicket one first.
0:37:30 > 0:37:32Series Of Unfortunate Events we'll put first.
0:37:32 > 0:37:34And Silverfin in the middle.
0:37:34 > 0:37:37Let's pop those answers on the board in that order and here they are.
0:37:43 > 0:37:44Very best of luck.
0:37:44 > 0:37:47Your first answer was The Series Of Unfortunate Events.
0:37:47 > 0:37:49From the Lemony Snicket series.
0:37:49 > 0:37:52So let's find out if it's correct.
0:37:52 > 0:37:55If it's pointless you will leave here with £8,500.
0:37:55 > 0:37:58Is The Series Of Unfortunate Events a Lemony Snicket book?
0:38:01 > 0:38:02Oh, bad luck!
0:38:02 > 0:38:05Bad luck, an incorrect answer.
0:38:06 > 0:38:09Two more chances to win today's jackpot of £8,500.
0:38:09 > 0:38:12I'm going to ask Serena. £8,500.
0:38:12 > 0:38:15What would be the first thing you would do with that?
0:38:15 > 0:38:19I would like to take the kids on a safari in Africa.
0:38:19 > 0:38:22While they still want to go on holiday with us.
0:38:22 > 0:38:26- Good stuff!- They're almost at the age where they won't want to.
0:38:26 > 0:38:29So it's got to be something to tempt them along?
0:38:29 > 0:38:30Yeah, something a bit exotic.
0:38:30 > 0:38:34Very good. Stephen, anything else for you? Any first editions?
0:38:34 > 0:38:39I'm having a separate holiday. I'm going to China to see the Terracotta Warriors at Sian.
0:38:39 > 0:38:42I bet the kids will prefer to come with me, Alexander, hey.
0:38:42 > 0:38:45Serena, you have no interest in the Terracotta Army?
0:38:45 > 0:38:48Yeah, yeah, I'd go along. Yeah.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50There we are. Your second answer was Silverfin.
0:38:50 > 0:38:53This of course was one of the Charlie Higson Young Bond books.
0:38:53 > 0:38:57Let's find out if that's correct and if it's pointless you will walk away with £8,500.
0:38:57 > 0:39:00Let's find out how many people said Silverfin. Is it right?
0:39:03 > 0:39:04It is correct!
0:39:04 > 0:39:07The Series Of Unfortunate Events was incorrect for one reason or another
0:39:07 > 0:39:10but Silverfin is on the money.
0:39:10 > 0:39:13Down it goes through the 20s. Into the teens. Is it going to make single figures?
0:39:13 > 0:39:15Down it goes. Still going down. Four!
0:39:15 > 0:39:17- APPLAUSE - That's a great answer.
0:39:20 > 0:39:23Four for Silverfin.
0:39:23 > 0:39:28Cracking answer. Lovely low score. Sadly we're only interested in pointless answers for this round.
0:39:28 > 0:39:31So everything is now resting on your last answer.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34Which was Room On A Broom.
0:39:34 > 0:39:40Let's find out. Is Room On A Broom a Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler book?
0:39:42 > 0:39:44Oh!
0:39:46 > 0:39:49APPLAUSE
0:39:49 > 0:39:50Oh.
0:39:51 > 0:39:55All will be revealed. That for some reason is an incorrect answer.
0:39:55 > 0:39:57I have a feeling I know why.
0:39:57 > 0:40:01Unfortunately therefore you didn't manage to find that all-important pointless answer.
0:40:01 > 0:40:05You don't win today's jackpot of £8,500. That will roll over on to the next show.
0:40:05 > 0:40:09We've loved having you on the show and you do get to take home a Pointless trophy each.
0:40:09 > 0:40:11- Thank you. - Thank you very much.
0:40:16 > 0:40:20It's Room On THE Broom, I'm afraid. Would have scored you nine points anyway.
0:40:20 > 0:40:23The big scorers for Julia Donaldson were The Gruffalo and The Gruffalo's Child.
0:40:23 > 0:40:26They were very big scorers.
0:40:26 > 0:40:29I bet with your kids you'll know some Julia Donaldson books.
0:40:29 > 0:40:32I'll go through all three before we get to that. I'll stop you.
0:40:32 > 0:40:34And I'll test you.
0:40:34 > 0:40:38Let's take a look at Lemony Snicket. There's a few pointless answers here.
0:40:45 > 0:40:49Also could have The Austere Academy, The Carnivorous Carnival and The Slippery Slope.
0:40:49 > 0:40:54Only one pointless answer in the Young Bond series. These are brilliant books by the way.
0:40:54 > 0:40:57Blood Fever was the only pointless one of those.
0:40:57 > 0:40:58Now...
0:40:58 > 0:41:02- OK.- Julia Donaldson, Axel Scheffler. What have you got?
0:41:02 > 0:41:06- I'm going to go... Can I give you three?- Why not?
0:41:08 > 0:41:10Tiddler, I'd go for.
0:41:10 > 0:41:14- OK, Tiddler would score you two points.- Oh!
0:41:14 > 0:41:16- Stick Man. - Stick Man...
0:41:16 > 0:41:18..would score you five points.
0:41:18 > 0:41:20Oh! Monkey Puzzle.
0:41:20 > 0:41:24Monkey Puzzle? Your first answer scored you two.
0:41:24 > 0:41:27- Yeah. - Second answer scored you five.
0:41:27 > 0:41:31- Yeah. £8,500. - There is a jackpot of £8,500.
0:41:31 > 0:41:36Say you were to win the jackpot today, what would you spend the money on?
0:41:36 > 0:41:40Erm, I think I'd... I'd give it all to charity.
0:41:43 > 0:41:44LAUGHTER
0:41:45 > 0:41:48- Four points. - Oh!
0:41:48 > 0:41:50I'm afraid. APPLAUSE
0:41:53 > 0:41:57Let's take a look at some of the pointless answers for the Julia Donaldson category.
0:42:04 > 0:42:07Can't believe you didn't say Tabby McTat. Do any of those ring a bell at all?
0:42:07 > 0:42:13Fox's Socks we've got but that's for sort of... Yeah, I wasn't thinking of those ones.
0:42:13 > 0:42:17Yeah. You've been so brilliant throughout the show.
0:42:17 > 0:42:18LAUGHTER
0:42:18 > 0:42:22You were great last time as well. It's been lovely having you on.
0:42:22 > 0:42:25- I only came for the trophy. - I'm sorry this is your last time.
0:42:26 > 0:42:29No, we've had a lovely time. We. Obviously me and the podium.
0:42:29 > 0:42:32You've been absolutely terrific, you really have.
0:42:32 > 0:42:34And safe journey back.
0:42:34 > 0:42:37Yeah, yeah. Thank you.
0:42:38 > 0:42:41Did you know any of those?
0:42:41 > 0:42:43- No.- None at all. - Dear oh dear.
0:42:43 > 0:42:45Bad luck.
0:42:45 > 0:42:48We do have to say goodbye to you but it's been wonderful having you on the show.
0:42:48 > 0:42:52Thank you for playing, you've played so well. Stephen and Serena.
0:42:52 > 0:42:53APPLAUSE
0:42:54 > 0:42:58Very sadly they didn't win our jackpot which means it rolls over on to the next show.
0:42:58 > 0:43:00We will be playing for £9,500.
0:43:00 > 0:43:02APPLAUSE
0:43:03 > 0:43:06Join us and see if someone can win it. It's goodbye from Richard.
0:43:06 > 0:43:08- Goodbye. - And it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
