1
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:20,840
APPLAUSE
2
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:23,920
Thank you very much indeed.
3
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,520
Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong
and welcome to Pointless,
4
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,200
the quiz where the lowest scorers
are the biggest winners.
5
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,160
Let's meet today's players.
6
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:33,640
APPLAUSE
7
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:36,520
And couple number one.
8
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:38,400
Hi, I'm Wendy,
this is my husband,
9
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,960
Derek, and we're from
Sandbach in Cheshire.
10
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:42,200
Couple number two.
11
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,440
Hi, I'm Rachel, this is my friend
and former colleague Pete,
12
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:46,760
and we come from Birmingham.
13
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:48,120
Couple number three.
14
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,480
Hi, I'm Iraj and this is my former
university classmate,
15
00:00:50,480 --> 00:00:52,680
Joseph, and we are
from West Yorkshire.
16
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:54,160
And finally, couple number four.
17
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,480
Hi, my name is Eamonn,
this is Serena, we are from London
18
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:57,880
and we are university friends.
19
00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:59,560
And these are today's contestants.
20
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,080
APPLAUSE
21
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,360
Thanks very much, all of you.
A warm welcome to the show.
22
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:05,680
That just leaves one more person
for me to introduce.
23
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,880
Putting the "pert" into expert,
it's my Pointless friend,
24
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:10,000
it's Richard.
25
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,160
Hiya. Hey, everybody. Afternoon.
26
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:15,600
Good afternoon to you.
Good afternoon.
27
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:17,600
Just one pair returning
from our last show.
28
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,280
Welcome back, Joe.
Welcome back, Iraj,
29
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,320
Lovely to have you here.
Knocked out in Round Two,
30
00:01:21,320 --> 00:01:23,240
but a good pair, I think. They...
31
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,560
I think we might see them go
a little bit further today.
32
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,600
And Danny and Olivia, who got
through to the final last time,
33
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,000
and their subject
was another Serena,
34
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,320
Serena Williams, three
Serena Williams questions.
35
00:01:33,320 --> 00:01:38,680
They went one point,
one point, incorrect answer.
36
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:40,760
Oh, it was close, wasn't it?
Mmm.
37
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:42,960
They did ever so well.
Danny knew his tennis,
38
00:01:42,960 --> 00:01:46,280
knew all the pointless answers as
well but, yeah, terrible shame.
39
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,720
I feel your pain, everybody,
that another £1,000 is going
40
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:49,840
to be added to the jackpot.
41
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,960
There it is, we're just going
to have to deal with it,
42
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:53,600
I'm afraid. So, yeah, be a fun one
today.
43
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,280
Mmm. Well, there we are,
Richard has pretty much told
you everything you needed to know.
44
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,280
Danny and Olivia not
winning the jackpot,
45
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,840
we're adding another £1,000 to it,
so, just so you know,
46
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,280
today's jackpot starts off at
£2,000. There we are.
47
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,280
APPLAUSE
48
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,480
Right, if everyone's ready,
let's play Pointless.
49
00:02:11,920 --> 00:02:13,440
APPLAUSE
50
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,720
You just have to remember this -
the pair with the highest score
51
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:19,480
at the end of each
round gets eliminated.
52
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:21,800
Otherwise, very, very best
of luck to all four pairs.
53
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,800
Our first category today is...
54
00:02:26,640 --> 00:02:28,920
Can you all decide in your pairs
who's going to go first,
55
00:02:28,920 --> 00:02:30,240
who's going to go second?
56
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,200
And whoever's going first,
please step up to the podium.
57
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,560
OK, and the question concerns...
58
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,960
Richard? On each board we're going
to show you the surnames of seven
59
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,680
fashion designers who have labels
or brands named after them.
60
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:51,880
I just need you to tell
us their first names, please.
61
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:53,920
There's going to be 14 in all
to have a go at at home.
62
00:02:53,920 --> 00:02:56,400
Also, I'm going to give you the year
of birth of those fashion
63
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:57,920
designers in brackets.
64
00:02:57,920 --> 00:03:01,040
Thank you very much indeed,
so let's reveal the surnames
65
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:02,400
of our fashion designers.
66
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,400
We'll get the first names from you,
when it comes to your turn.
67
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,760
Here's our first board of seven.
We have got...
68
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,680
Let me read all of those
to you one last time.
69
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,840
There we are. Now then, Wendy,
welcome to Pointless.
70
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:44,760
Great to have you here
from Cheshire.
71
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:46,520
What keeps you busy
in Cheshire, Wendy?
72
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,440
Well, we're farmers,
so I'm a farmer's wife,
73
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,240
and I also work part-time
at an insurance brokers.
74
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,280
Right, how many days a week
do you do insurance?
75
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,240
Just two days,
but I'm busy the other days.
76
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,520
Well, of course you are.
So, what sort of farm do you have?
77
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,960
So we have a livestock farm,
78
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,520
so rearing cows for the dairy
industry.
79
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,320
But you don't have a dairy onsite?
No.
80
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:07,880
No. I see, OK.
81
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:09,240
And what are your interests?
82
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:13,600
Erm, well, I'm part of a group
called The Milk Maid Marchers,
83
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,920
and we're a group of ladies,
as our name suggests
84
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:17,880
we're all farmers' wives,
farmers' daughters,
85
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,040
and we're raising money for charity.
You do it by marching?
86
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,040
Well, we do a lot of walks.
A lot of walking.
87
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,480
And we also do...
Have an annual coffee morning,
88
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,720
because we obviously like to bake
and things like that,
89
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,680
and also if people have, say,
if farmers have a wedding
90
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:34,800
or an event, and have a marquee,
we then use the event afterwards
91
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:36,520
to make money for our charity, so...
92
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:37,640
Very good indeed.
93
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,800
Now, Wendy, this board is all yours.
Where are you going to go?
94
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,080
Yes, well, Xander, not a good round
for me, this one.
95
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:45,840
Erm...
96
00:04:45,840 --> 00:04:48,680
I definitely know one, I'm not sure
about the other, but I think
97
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,320
I'm going to have to go with the one
I'm definitely certain of.
98
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:55,960
That's the top one,
I'm going to go Stella McCartney.
99
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,720
Stella McCartney, says Wendy.
100
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,360
Let's see how many of our 100
people went for Stella.
101
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:04,920
Stella McCartney is right.
102
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:09,000
Down it goes to 67, not bad, Wendy
gets us off to a good start, 67.
103
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,640
Yeah, for her graduation show
from Central St Martins,
104
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,800
she had Naomi Campbell
as one of her models.
105
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,400
That's not bad for a graduation
show, is it? Not bad, yeah.
106
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,040
Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
107
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,640
Now Rachel, welcome to Pointless,
here from Birmingham.
108
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,240
That's right, yes.
And what do you do, Rachel?
109
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,160
So currently I'm just
finishing my maternity leave
110
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,880
and then I'll be going back
to my role as an HR advisor.
111
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:31,840
How are you anticipating
that's going to be?
112
00:05:31,840 --> 00:05:33,480
Is that going to be
quite sad, to be..?
113
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:37,600
Sad, but it's also nice to be back
in the world with grown-ups.
114
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,600
Oh, yes, that's true, very true.
115
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,160
Rachel, how are we feeling
about our designers?
116
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,080
I'm feeling OK.
117
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:51,280
Erm, I think I will go
for the third one,
118
00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:52,520
Pierre Cardin.
119
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:54,280
Pierre Cardin, says Rachel.
120
00:05:54,280 --> 00:05:57,200
Let's see how many of our 100
people said Pierre.
121
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,160
Pierre is right, 67 is the only
score we have
122
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,040
and you pass it,
61 for Pierre Cardin.
123
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:04,080
APPLAUSE
124
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:09,320
Yeah, his father was a wealthy wine
merchant and wanted his son
125
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,560
to be an architect,
but his son was only interested
126
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:15,680
in dressmaking and he seemed to turn
that to his financial advantage...
127
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,000
Mmm. ..did he not?
128
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,720
Thank you very much. Now,
Iraj, welcome back to Pointless.
129
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,280
Good to have you here. Thank you.
130
00:06:21,280 --> 00:06:22,960
Remind us what you do, Iraj.
131
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:24,720
At the moment, I'm studying.
132
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,760
I'm going to be starting
a PhD in September,
133
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,400
so at the moment I'm just kind
of filling the time a bit
134
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,920
before that starts. So you
did...what was your first degree?
135
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,360
Physics with astrophysics.
Physics with astrophysics?
136
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:35,840
Yeah, so I did a Masters in that.
137
00:06:35,840 --> 00:06:37,080
You've done a Masters in that?
138
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,000
Yeah, and then I went and
trained to be a teacher,
139
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:41,560
didn't really like that.
140
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,160
Didn't so much like that, so...
No, wasn't for me.
141
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,400
Can we ask, obviously
it won't mean anything to me,
142
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,360
but some people it will mean
something to, what's your particular
143
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:50,560
discipline within physics?
144
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,240
My PhD is going to be on
emerging galaxy clusters,
145
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,240
so simulating them on computers
and then looking at sort of
146
00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:01,600
observational data and saying, "OK,
this simulation looks like this
one,"
147
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,760
so we can infer the sort of physics
behind what's happened
148
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,640
there from the simulation
and what I have said has happened
149
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:08,880
in that simulation.
150
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,400
Very good. Now, Iraj,
what are you going to go
151
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,240
for on our board of designers?
152
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,280
It's just a bit of
a change of subject, there,
153
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,840
but, yeah, fine,
we can do that kind of...
154
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:22,880
I think, as a physicist, it's not
a good selection for me!
155
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:27,920
I know one, there's one
that I'm not sure about,
156
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:29,680
so I'd better play it safe.
157
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,400
It's probably quite high,
I'll say Gianni Versace.
158
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,000
Gianni Versace, says Iraj.
159
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,200
Let's see how many of our 100
people went with Gianni.
160
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,360
Gianni is absolutely right,
67 is the high score,
161
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,760
61 is the low score,
you are past both of those.
162
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,360
Look at that, down to 40, well done.
163
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,080
APPLAUSE
164
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:48,680
Not a bad score at all, Iraj.
165
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:49,840
Yeah, well played, Iraj.
166
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,280
Now his mother, this is much nicer,
was a dressmaker,
167
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,120
so it was in the family.
168
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,520
Didn't have to worry
about architecture or
169
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:58,760
wine merchantry, anything like that.
170
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,240
Yeah, no.
171
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:01,920
Very good, thank you, Richard.
172
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,960
Now, then Serena,
welcome to Pointless.
173
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,200
Great to have you here.
Tell us all about yourself.
174
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,800
So, right now, I'm currently a
student at UCL, in my final year
175
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:12,840
of studying human sciences.
176
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:14,040
Final year.
177
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,800
Have you had a lovely time at UCL?
178
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,440
Oh, yeah, it's been fantastic.
179
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,200
So much so that I'm doing
a Masters next year, at UCL.
180
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:21,320
That's nice, at UCL. Yeah.
181
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,480
Staying there. In human sciences.
What will your Masters to be
focusing on?
182
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,720
Erm, so it's science
and technology and society,
183
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:32,040
which kind of covers everything
from politics to policy to ethics,
184
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,360
to journalism, and kind
of everything in-between,
185
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:35,800
but all related to science.
186
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,800
Fascinating. Everything. Everything.
187
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,200
Well, between Serena and Iraj,
we've got the world
188
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:41,880
and then the entire universe!
189
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,800
There's nothing we don't know.
Pretty good. Yeah. Pretty good.
190
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:46,520
Now, Serena, this board's all
yours.
191
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,240
Would you like to talk
us through it?
192
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:49,360
Fill in all our blanks.
193
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:53,200
Well, I'm not particularly
good at fashion myself.
194
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,360
And I thought I knew the Versace one
but I actually didn't,
195
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,080
so I'm really glad you said that.
196
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,240
But the one I think
I might know is Karan,
197
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,240
I think it's Donna Karan?
You're going to go for Donna Karan.
198
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,000
Let's see how many of our
100 people said that, Donna.
199
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,960
Down it goes, 40 is our lowest score
and you join Iraj on 40.
200
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,680
Very well done indeed, Donna Karan.
201
00:09:20,680 --> 00:09:21,840
Well played, Serena.
202
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,960
Now, her father was a tailor
and her mother was a model,
203
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,120
so this is perfect for this gig.
204
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,960
I presume for Versace you were
thinking Donatella. Yeah.
205
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,480
Yeah, that's Gianni's sister,
who's now in charge
206
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,360
of the Versace label.
207
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,960
Burberry, do you know this one?
208
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,600
Nine of our 100 got this.
209
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:40,920
William Burberry?
210
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:42,840
I mean, it might as well be.
Thomas.
211
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,360
Thomas Burberry. Thomas Burberry.
That's nice.
212
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:46,760
Nine points for Thomas Burberry.
213
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:47,960
Ashley? Laura.
214
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,320
Laura Ashley, correct.
That would have scored you 46.
215
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,720
The best answer on the board,
Leiber, Judith Leiber.
Judith Leiber.
216
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,480
Judith Leiber, made incredible
handbags
217
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,160
covered in sort of crystals
and all sorts of things. Wonderful.
218
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,120
Three points, very well
done if you said that.
219
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,760
Thank you very much, Richard.
We're halfway through our round.
220
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:05,480
Let's take a quick
look at those scores.
221
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,320
40 is the lowest score,
Serena and Iraj, well done to both
222
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,600
of you for hitting
that low score there.
223
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:12,560
That takes the pressure off you.
224
00:10:12,560 --> 00:10:14,800
61's where we find Rachel
and Peter, so a little bit
225
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,000
of pressure on Peter there,
but not as much as there is
226
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,840
on Derek, I'm afraid.
Wendy and Derek there on 67.
227
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,600
I mean, not miles ahead,
but just a little bit ahead.
228
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,760
So a nice low score
from you wouldn't hurt.
229
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,680
Let's come back down the line now.
230
00:10:26,680 --> 00:10:29,640
Can the second players please
step up to the podium?
231
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:35,760
Let us put seven more fashion
designers' surnames up on the board
232
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,000
and here they are.
233
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:53,560
Let me read those again.
234
00:11:08,560 --> 00:11:09,960
Eamonn, welcome to Pointless.
235
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,240
Great to have you here.
Tell us all about yourself.
236
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,160
Well, I'm at UCL as well, and I
study law with German law.
237
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,000
I'm in my second year.
238
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:18,720
Very good, so second year.
239
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,800
If you include German law, does that
add another year to your course?
240
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,400
Yeah, so next year I'm going
to Germany to study German law
241
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,520
there, then I come back
here for another year.
242
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,560
I see, very good. And what do you
like doing extra curricu...
243
00:11:29,560 --> 00:11:31,480
..in an extracurricular way?
244
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,800
Well, I'm... So the way I met Serena
was through the comedy club,
245
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,440
so we basically do
lots of different kinds of comedy.
246
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,920
I mostly do improv, a bit of sketch,
and then sometimes do a bit
247
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,840
of stand-up, but those are
the three main branches
248
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,080
of the comedy club, yeah.
Very good indeed.
249
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,640
Now Eamonn, you are on 40,
you are our low scorers
250
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,840
at the moment, with Joe and Iraj.
Yeah.
251
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,440
If you want a definite
place in the next round,
252
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,520
a score of 26 would
secure it for you.
253
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,360
I don't think I'm going to get that!
254
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:05,200
Oh, erm, I'm not sure,
I feel like this is a really
255
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,480
terrible category for me! Erm...
256
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:11,520
The bottom one is the most
familiar to me, Armani...
257
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:15,760
I don't know.
258
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,960
I'm going to say Orlando Armani.
259
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,680
Orlando Armani, says Eamonn.
260
00:12:22,680 --> 00:12:24,520
XANDER LAUGHS
261
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,400
That was a very polite...
262
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,040
Serena just...
263
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:29,400
HE IMITATES SERENA'S SIGH
264
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:30,480
LAUGHTER
265
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,800
Orlando Armani, says Eamonn.
There is your red line.
266
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,000
Let's see how far down the column
we get with Orlando.
267
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,080
Oh, bad luck.
268
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,040
Bad luck. I'm afraid not Orlando.
269
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,720
That scores you 100,
takes your total up to 140.
270
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,200
Well, it's a lovely name,
Orlando Armani, I'll give you that.
271
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,360
It's an incorrect name,
but it's a lovely one.
272
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,040
What a nice... What a nice
wrong answer to give. I know.
273
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:55,720
It's a nice way to score 100 points.
274
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:56,800
Yes, well done!
275
00:12:57,840 --> 00:12:59,800
Joe, welcome back. Yes.
276
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:01,880
Remind us all about yourself.
277
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:03,920
I work in a discount supermarket.
278
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,240
You and Iraj know each
other from university.
279
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:07,840
From the University of Hull, yes.
280
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:09,840
So were you also
studying astrophysics?
281
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:13,440
I didn't study astrophysics,
I studied nanotechnology.
282
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,160
What are your interests, Joe?
283
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:20,120
I like to do pub quizzes, so I'm
regularly going to my local...
284
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,200
..local pubs in and around
Wakefield.
285
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,000
Have you won one yet? Yes.
286
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,120
See? That's exciting.
That's always fun.
287
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:27,440
Very nice indeed.
288
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,360
Now, Joe, if you can
score 99 or less,
289
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,240
you're through to the next round.
290
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:36,240
A good job. The last board
was, actually, surprisingly
291
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:37,720
good for me.
292
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:43,000
I knew them all except Leiber.
But on this one I'm going
293
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,800
to have to go for Louis Vuitton.
294
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,120
Louis Vuitton, says Joe.
295
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,560
Here is your red line, lovely and
high. Couldn't be higher.
296
00:13:50,560 --> 00:13:52,800
Let's see how far down
the column we get with Louis.
297
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,280
Very well done indeed.
298
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,000
72...
299
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:03,080
Not bad, not bad. ..taking your
total up to 112, good enough.
300
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:06,240
He started out in professional life
as the personal box maker
301
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,200
to the Empress of France -
that's a nice gig, isn't it?
302
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,720
Isn't it? Yeah. Yeah.
303
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,200
Very nice. Thank you, Richard.
304
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,560
Now then, Peter, welcome.
Good to have you here.
305
00:14:17,560 --> 00:14:18,920
Peter, hello. Hi.
306
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,200
Here from Birmingham.
I'm from Birmingham too, yes.
307
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,640
Very good, and what keeps
you busy in Birmingham, Peter?
308
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,160
I do lots of jobs there, really.
309
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:28,720
Take us through some of them.
310
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,880
I work at a pizza place as a waiter,
a bit of a crazy waiter,
311
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:36,080
that's how we met,
and I also do the delivering of food
312
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,040
on a bicycle as well, and I'm also
a part-time
313
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,200
reservist soldier as well.
Oh, good for you. Fantastic.
314
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,120
OK, now, Peter, you're on 61.
315
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,640
We are looking for a score
of 78 or less from you. OK.
316
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:49,640
78 or less, what would
you like to go for?
317
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,600
I don't really do fashion very well
because none of the clothes
318
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,720
really fit me, so I go
to the kids' section,
319
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,880
but I'm going to go
for Jasper Conran.
320
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:00,800
Jasper Conran, says Peter.
321
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:02,000
Here's your red line.
322
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,240
Get over this red line with Jasper
Conran, you're into Round Two.
323
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,280
Let's see what happens,
Jasper Conran.
324
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:10,960
It's right.
325
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,640
Easy-peasy, Peter.
Well done, you are through,
326
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,280
46, very nice indeed.
327
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:17,600
107 is your total.
328
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,680
Well played, Peter.
Always delivers, Peter.
329
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:24,800
Yeah, he's the son
of Shirley Conran,
330
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,280
the author, and Sir Terence Conran,
also a designer.
331
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:29,840
Thank you very much indeed, Richard.
332
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,320
Derek, welcome.
333
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,680
I know what you do, I know what you
do even before I ask.
334
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,000
A livestock farmer.
335
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:37,080
That's correct, yeah.
336
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,600
So talk us through your livestock.
You have cows?
337
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:44,120
Yeah, cows. For most of my career,
I've been a dairy farmer but now
338
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:49,680
I just rear cattle
for the dairy industry. I see.
339
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:53,680
So I'll grow them from young calves
through till they are ready
340
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:55,360
and fit to go into
the dairy industry.
341
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:56,840
And how big is your herd?
342
00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,080
It's not too many now, it's only
about 90 or 100,
343
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,200
something like that.
I see. It's not too big.
344
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,320
And when does it get
really busy for you?
345
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,000
Well, it's steady, really,
all through the year.
346
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,920
Obviously, in the winter months,
there's more feeding and things
347
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:13,760
that need doing, so the cattle calve
all year round so there are no peaks
348
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,600
like there would be for lambing
sheep, something like that.
349
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,440
For lambing, exactly, yeah, yeah.
So that's not a problem.
350
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,160
OK. Now, Derek, you are on 67.
351
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,400
We need a score of 72
or less from you. Mmm.
352
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,240
That board is all yours,
it's a chance for you to show
353
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,640
off all your fashion knowledge.
354
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:31,680
Well, that doesn't stretch very far.
355
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:37,080
And I've got to say I don't know,
particularly know, any of them.
356
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:42,200
I'm going to have to
have a stab at Armani.
357
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,600
Something in the back of my mind,
it might be Claude,
358
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,280
that's all I've got. Claude Armani.
359
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,280
But I'm not sure.
360
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,400
OK, here is your red line.
361
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,120
What do we think, Wendy?
362
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,800
Oh, well, let's see what happens.
There's your red line.
363
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:02,880
Claude Armani?
364
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:10,240
No. Bad luck, bad luck, bad luck.
Derek, you were edging
365
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,320
towards the right sort
of kind of direction.
366
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:15,120
Anyway, 167 is your total,
that scores you 100.
367
00:17:15,120 --> 00:17:16,280
Yeah, sorry, Derek.
368
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,520
I have to say, you know the look
that Serena gave when Eamonn gave
369
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,560
the wrong answer? She gave the exact
inverse of that look when you gave
370
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,880
the answer "Claude". You could see
it all... It all came out!
371
00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:28,640
Not Claude Armani, it is...
Giorgio.
372
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,160
Giorgio Armani, yeah.
373
00:17:31,120 --> 00:17:33,040
It would have scored you 63 points.
374
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:36,920
Not Orlando, not
Claude, but Giorgio. Mmm.
375
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:38,680
Let's take a look. Jacobs? Marc.
376
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,640
Marc Jacobs, yeah,
would have scored you 36.
377
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,120
Von Furstenberg? Diane.
378
00:17:43,120 --> 00:17:44,560
Diane.
379
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,000
She would have scored you 15.
Rhodes? Zandra.
380
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,160
Zandra Rhodes, yeah.
381
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:50,480
That's 32.
382
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,200
Now, Tiffany, again,
it's like Burberry.
383
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:55,960
You know, could be anything.
I'll tell you, it's not William.
384
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,160
It's not William.
And it's not Thomas. Mmm. Mmm.
385
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,560
Wilfred. It's not Wilfred. Oh!
386
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,200
It is Charles, well done
if you send Charles at home,
387
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,160
two points, the best
answer on that board.
388
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,360
Ah, well, there we are,
thank you very much indeed,
389
00:18:08,360 --> 00:18:10,680
Richard, we are at the end
of our first round, which means
390
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:12,400
we have to say goodbye
to one of our pairs,
391
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,080
and I'm so sorry, Derek and Wendy,
it is you we have to send home
392
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,200
for an early bath.
But you'll be back next time
393
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,080
and we look forward
to it very much indeed.
394
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,920
But, meantime, thank you very much
for playing, Derek and Wendy.
395
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:26,760
But for the remaining three
pairs, it is now time for Round Two.
396
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,920
APPLAUSE
397
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:32,880
There we are, suddenly
down to three pairs,
398
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:34,040
but well done all of you.
399
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,480
Each team has something
to be pleased about.
400
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:40,720
Serena and Iraj, you were our low
scorers there individually.
401
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:44,320
Rachel and Peter, you were our low
scorers as a combined pair,
402
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:45,720
so very well done.
403
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,760
Well done, everybody -
apart from Eamonn and Joe -
404
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,600
but well done.
405
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:51,360
Best of luck to all three pairs.
406
00:18:51,360 --> 00:18:54,040
Our category for Round Two today
is...
407
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,000
Can you all decide in your pairs
who's going to go first,
408
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:00,360
who's going to go second?
409
00:19:00,360 --> 00:19:01,920
And, whoever is going first,
410
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:03,520
please step up to the podium.
411
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:08,920
OK, let's find out what the question
is. Here it comes.
412
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:13,440
We gave 100 people 100 seconds
to name as many...
413
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,280
Richard? Yeah, we are looking
for the name of any EU country -
414
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,160
that is any country
that's a member of the EU -
415
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:28,640
or any capital of an EU
country as of April 2018
416
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,960
whose name comes after
Luxembourg in the alphabet.
417
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,720
As always, by country, I mean
a sovereign state that's a member
418
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:34,960
of the UN in its own right.
419
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:36,760
Thank you very much indeed.
420
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:41,280
OK, now, Rachel, what would you like
to go for, Rachel?
421
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:45,160
I think I will go for Warsaw.
422
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:46,720
Warsaw. Warsaw, let's see
423
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,040
how many of our 100 people said
Warsaw.
424
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:53,440
It is right.
425
00:19:58,120 --> 00:20:00,920
Look at that, down to nine,
very well done indeed.
426
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:02,120
Gets us off to a flying start.
427
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,040
Great start, Rachel, well played.
428
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:07,960
Yeah, they call it,
the inhabitants of it,
429
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,520
call it the Phoenix City
because it's been damaged
430
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,360
and rebuilt so many times, Warsaw.
431
00:20:12,360 --> 00:20:15,840
Poor Warsaw. Poor Warsaw.
Poorsaw. Poorsaw.
432
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:17,440
Thank you very much!
433
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,520
Joe. Yes?
What are you going to go for?
434
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,720
I'm going to go for Riga.
Riga, says Joe.
435
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:25,840
We like the sound of Riga. Let's see
what happens when we say Riga.
436
00:20:29,120 --> 00:20:30,240
Riga is right.
437
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,040
And down it goes to three. Very well
done indeed, Joe,
438
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:39,200
lovely scoring there.
439
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,120
Well played, yeah,
the capital of Latvia,
440
00:20:45,120 --> 00:20:48,600
which I can say because it comes
before Luxembourg in the alphabet.
441
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,440
Phew!
442
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:52,320
That's nice, thank you very much.
443
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:53,680
OK, thank you very much indeed.
444
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,520
Now then, Eamonn.
445
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,560
Oh, well, I think there are a few
safe ones I could've gone for
446
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,760
but I'm going to play it risky.
447
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:04,560
I'm not sure whether
it's in the EU or not... Yeah.
448
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,360
..but I'm going to say Tallinn.
449
00:21:06,360 --> 00:21:08,160
Tallinn - or "Tah-linn" - Tallinn.
450
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,240
Let's see how many of our 100
people said Tallinn.
451
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:14,520
It is in the EU.
452
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:21,720
And down it goes to four,
very well done indeed.
453
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:29,120
Well played, Eamonn, yes,
that's the capital of Estonia,
454
00:21:29,120 --> 00:21:31,040
so you're also... Thank you very
much.
455
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:34,120
There's a network of tunnels
under the old town in Tallinn,
456
00:21:34,120 --> 00:21:36,080
which they opened as
a tourist attraction.
457
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,120
They are essentially
from the 17th century,
458
00:21:38,120 --> 00:21:41,920
but they were used as bomb shelters
during the Second World War.
They're fascinating.
459
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,320
Thank you very much.
We are halfway through the round.
460
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:45,880
Let's take a look at those scores.
461
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:47,600
Three was the best
score of the pass.
462
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:49,480
Well done, Joe, good stuff.
Very good.
463
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:51,520
Then up to four, where we find
Eamonn and Serena.
464
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,600
Then up to nine,
where we find Rachel and Peter.
465
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,920
Not that far ahead, but, Peter,
let's have a nice low
466
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,400
score from you.
Keep things sweet.
467
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:00,120
We're going to come
back down the line now.
468
00:22:00,120 --> 00:22:02,280
Can the second players please
step up to the podium?
469
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:06,640
OK.
470
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:08,280
Now, Serena, Serena,
471
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:11,240
we've had some lovely low scores.
472
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:15,160
I think I'm going
to have to go for...
473
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:17,720
I'm not entirely sure
if it's in the EU,
474
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,640
but I'm going to go for Oslo.
475
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,680
Oslo, says Serena. OK.
476
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,880
Here is your red line.
477
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,280
It's quite low down.
478
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,120
Let's see what happens
when we say Oslo.
479
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:36,720
No, I'm sorry, Serena.
480
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:37,880
You will know why that is.
481
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,320
That's an incorrect answer.
Scores you 100 points.
482
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:41,680
Takes your total up to 104.
483
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:45,120
Sorry, Serena, yeah, capital of
Norway, but it is not in the EU.
484
00:22:45,120 --> 00:22:48,440
They have a Norway agreement. Yes.
485
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,120
The EU suggest things to them
and they say, "Nor-way."
486
00:22:51,120 --> 00:22:52,160
LAUGHTER
487
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:54,680
That's very good.
488
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:58,600
No wonder you host
Have I Got News For You so often.
489
00:22:58,600 --> 00:22:59,960
Yeah.
490
00:22:59,960 --> 00:23:01,440
Thank you very much.
491
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,560
I've just thought of
a really good answer.
492
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,680
No way! Yeah. Nor-way.
493
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,080
Will you tell me at the end?
I will, at the end.
494
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,480
What could that be?
I don't know, I think I fancy it.
495
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,320
I fancy it as a low scorer.
Oh, really?
496
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,720
Yeah, it's literally... It literally
has just dawned on me.
497
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,240
This has got 100 points
written all over it.
498
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:20,840
Let's find out at the end of the
round. Mmm-hmm!
499
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,360
Now, Iraj, I've got
great news for you.
500
00:23:23,360 --> 00:23:25,480
It doesn't matter, even if
you score 100 points,
501
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,200
you're still into the next round.
502
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,240
What would you like to go for?
503
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:30,560
I made the same mistake of not
504
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,480
thinking EU and just thinking
European.
505
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:37,280
So I've got two that are risky
and I don't know whether to risk it,
506
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:40,200
since I'm already, through,
but...
507
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:43,840
I couldn't live with myself if I got
100 on a geography question,
508
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:47,120
so I'll stick with the Baltic states
and I'll go with Vilnius.
509
00:23:47,120 --> 00:23:48,760
Vilnius, says Iraj.
510
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,760
Let's have a look. Vilnius.
No red line. You're already through.
511
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:53,960
How far down the column do
we get with Vilnius?
512
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:57,400
It is right.
513
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:01,560
This feels like a good one.
514
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,000
Down it goes to one.
515
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,560
Very well done, indeed, Iraj.
516
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:08,800
Taking your total up to four.
517
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:09,840
Well played, Iraj.
518
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,280
If that was your safe one,
I'd love to hear your risky one.
519
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,560
Thanks very much, indeed, Richard.
Now, Peter. Hello.
520
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,240
Peter, there you are,
you're on nine.
521
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,040
We need a score of 94
or less from you.
522
00:24:21,120 --> 00:24:25,640
I think I'm going to go with a safe
one and just say Paris.
523
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,120
OK, Paris.
524
00:24:27,120 --> 00:24:29,080
Here is your red line.
525
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:30,640
You have to get below that.
526
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:32,600
Ooh, do you think it will? What if
it doesn't?
527
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:34,760
It's quite popular, though.
OK, let's find out.
528
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:36,360
Let's will it below that red line.
529
00:24:36,360 --> 00:24:38,760
Let's see how many of our
100 people said Paris.
530
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:42,880
You've done it!
531
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:43,960
With room to spare.
532
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:47,640
Paris!
533
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:52,400
33 for Paris. Taking your total up
to 42. Very well done, indeed.
534
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,840
Yeah, safe and sound. No
high-scorers in this round at all.
535
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:56,560
It's the second highest scorer,
Paris.
536
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,040
Paris and Portugal equal second
highest scorers.
537
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,240
No pointless answers at all,
so one is the best answer
538
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,360
you possibly could have given,
Iraj, well played.
539
00:25:03,360 --> 00:25:06,000
There's two others that would
have scored you one.
540
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,960
Do you want to hear a...? Oh, yes,
sorry. What's yours? Valetta.
541
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,440
Valetta? Mmm, delicious. Mmm. Which
is the capital of..?
542
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:14,160
Malta.
Malta. Would have scored you...
543
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,200
..two points. Oh! Two points.
544
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:17,400
Nicely done, though.
545
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,400
There are two other
one-point answers, though.
546
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,120
The capital of Croatia,
which is Zagreb,
547
00:25:21,120 --> 00:25:22,640
would have been a one-point answer.
548
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,480
And the capital of Cyprus, Nicosia,
549
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:26,600
would have scored one point,
as well.
550
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,160
You'd have got four
points for Slovakia -
551
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,400
that's the lowest
country on the list.
552
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,480
Five for Sofia, Stockholm, Prague,
553
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:39,160
six for Vienna, eight for Slovenia,
14 for Netherlands,
554
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,080
16, Romania, 17, Rome,
555
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:44,040
Malta would have scored you 20,
Sweden would have scored you 21,
556
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:47,120
Poland would have scored you 26 -
obviously, Warsaw capital of that -
557
00:25:47,120 --> 00:25:49,600
Madrid, 27, Portugal and Paris, 33,
558
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,320
and Spain the highest scorer with
43.
559
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,080
Thank you very much,
indeed, Richard.
560
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:55,800
Well, we are at the end
of our second round.
561
00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:57,480
We have to say goodbye
to one of our pairs.
562
00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,800
Serena and Eamonn, I'm afraid
it is you on this occasion.
563
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:01,400
We will see you again next time
564
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,800
and I have a hunch you'll go much,
much further next time.
565
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,960
But, meantime, thank you very much
for playing so well,
Serena and Eamonn.
566
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:13,400
But, for the remaining two pairs,
it's now time for our head-to-head.
567
00:26:17,120 --> 00:26:19,920
Congratulations, Joe and Iraj,
Rachel and Peter.
568
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,560
You are now one step closer
to the final and a chance to play
569
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:26,800
for our jackpot,
which currently stands at £2,000.
570
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,480
APPLAUSE
571
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,480
Well, we've made it
to the head-to-head,
572
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,440
which means, from here on in,
you play as a pair.
573
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:35,800
You chat before you give
your answers and the first pair
574
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,720
to win two questions in this round
will be playing for that jackpot.
575
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,080
Well, Joe and Iraj,
we had to say goodbye
576
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:43,560
to you in Round Two last time.
577
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,200
Here you are in the head-to-head.
578
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,400
Your last shot at the Pointless
final, so you've got
579
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:48,840
to make everything count.
580
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:51,600
But, Rachel and Peter, we've had
lovely low scores from you.
581
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,160
Fabulous, solid low-scoring,
combined scores,
582
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,120
that's what it's all been about.
So, who knows?
583
00:26:56,120 --> 00:26:58,000
I think you should be
pretty evenly matched,
584
00:26:58,000 --> 00:26:59,320
but best of luck to both pairs.
585
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,360
Let's play the head-to-head.
586
00:27:01,360 --> 00:27:02,400
APPLAUSE
587
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,640
Here is your first question
and it concerns...
588
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:16,200
Richard? Five pictures now of famous
people dancing with Ellen DeGeneres,
589
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,520
but who is she dancing with, please?
590
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:19,760
Thank you very much, indeed.
591
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:23,880
Who is Ellen DeGeneres dancing
with in each of these photographs?
592
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:25,200
And we have got...
593
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,640
There we are, five people dancing
with Ellen DeGeneres.
594
00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,920
Now, Joe and Iraj,
you are our low scorers,
595
00:27:59,920 --> 00:28:01,920
so you get to go first.
596
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,200
WHSIPERED: Is Kanye West..? Yeah.
597
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,880
WHISPERED: Shall we go with that?
Because I think...
598
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,800
WHISPERED: ..Taylor Swift,
shall we go for that?
599
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:12,440
WHISPERED: Shall we go for Kanye
West? Yeah?
600
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:20,440
Yeah, we're going to go... We've got
an answer for C, but we're not sure,
601
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:23,600
so we're going to go
for E and Kanye West.
602
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:26,520
Kanye West, say Joe and Iraj.
603
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:28,760
Now, then, Rachel and Peter,
do you fancy talking us
604
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:30,800
through the rest of that board?
605
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:34,200
Yeah. Except for the one we don't
know.
606
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,320
Which one are we going
to go for, first?
607
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,200
We know A is Tay Tay Swift, or
Taylor Swift.
608
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,760
B, Hillary Clinton. C, we don't
know.
609
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:46,280
It might be... Is it Jimmy Ki..? I
don't know. Jimmy... Not Jimmy Carr.
610
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,280
Kimmel, or something. Jimmy Kamel?
611
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,040
Not sure, not sure.
612
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:53,040
And D is Justin Timberlake.
613
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:54,920
Which one are we going to go for?
614
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,160
I think a lot of people
won't know Hillary Clinton
615
00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,560
because she's a politician
and they turn off.
616
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:00,920
Or Taylor Swift.
617
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,760
Everyone knows who Hillary
Clinton is. Or Taylor Swift.
618
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:05,800
We'll go for A... Tay Tay.
..Taylor Swift.
619
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:09,000
You're going to go for
Taylor "Tay Tay" Swift. OK.
620
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,520
So, we have Kanye West
and Taylor Swift.
621
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,520
Joe and Iraj went
for Kanye West for E -
622
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:17,720
let's see how many of our
100 people said that.
623
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:24,920
Kanye West is a very good answer.
624
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:26,640
Down it goes, still going down.
625
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:27,680
16.
626
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:29,440
APPLAUSE
627
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:35,960
Meanwhile, Rachel and Peter
have gone for Taylor Swift for A.
628
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:37,240
Let's see if that is right,
629
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,400
let's see how many of our 100 people
said it.
630
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,520
Taylor Swift is absolutely right.
Come on!
631
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,160
Oh, 46 for Taylor Swift.
632
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:48,920
APPLAUSE
633
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:52,920
Well done, both of you, but Joe and
Iraj, after one question,
you are up 1-0.
634
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:56,240
Yeah, and Taylor Swift was a better
answer than Hillary Clinton.
635
00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:57,680
She was the biggest score up there.
636
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,320
Would have scored you 67 points.
637
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,560
The best answer up there is the US
chat show host.
638
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,400
There's two Jimmys, one is Jimmy
Kimmel,
639
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,240
but this is not Jimmy Kimmel,
this is Jimmy Fallon...
640
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:09,360
Oh...
641
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,680
..and he would have scored you 13.
642
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:15,800
And Justin Timberlake there...
643
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,360
..would have scored 59.
644
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,320
Danced with a lot of people,
hasn't she, Ellen DeGeneres? Yeah.
645
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:22,560
Look how famous everyone is.
646
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,880
The only one she looks properly
equipped for dancing in,
647
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:26,040
obviously, is A. Yeah.
648
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:30,240
Well, you know, if Taylor Swift
asked you to come along,
649
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,280
you'd dress up.
You dress for it, yeah.
650
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,840
OK, there we are. Thank you very
much indeed, Richard.
651
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:36,400
Now, we come to our second question.
652
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,520
Rachel and Peter, you have to win
this one
653
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:40,280
to stay in the game, so good luck.
654
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,960
Our second question
today is all about...
655
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,880
Richard? Five clues now to facts
about champagne.
656
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:50,040
Thank you very much indeed.
657
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:53,560
Let's reveal our five clues
and here they come.
658
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,680
Let me read all of those
to you one last time.
659
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:51,360
There we go.
660
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:55,240
Rachel and Peter,
it's over to you, when you're ready.
661
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:56,600
That's the only one I know.
662
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,960
..three or four? Er...
663
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:04,840
OK, we will go with
the fourth one down,
664
00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:09,000
the band, with (What's The Story)
Morning Glory?, and say Oasis.
665
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:10,440
Oasis, say Rachel and Peter.
666
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,640
Now, then, Joe and Iraj,
do you feel like talking us
667
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:15,160
through that board?
668
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:16,600
I'll give it a shot.
669
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,400
The Benedictine monk,
I believe, is Dom Perignon.
670
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,920
The juice is orange juice.
671
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:30,840
And we believe the Impressionist
artist is van Gogh.
672
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:34,240
But we are going to go
for Uncle Vanya, and Anton Chekhov.
673
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,520
Chekhov, say Joe and Iraj.
674
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:38,720
So we have Oasis,
and we have Chekhov.
675
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:40,680
Rachel and Peter went for Oasis.
676
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:44,120
Let's see how many of our
100 people said Oasis.
677
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:47,520
It's right.
678
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:52,040
50 for Oasis.
679
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:53,080
APPLAUSE
680
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,120
Meanwhile, Joe and Iraj have gone
for Anton Chekhov for Uncle Vanya.
681
00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:58,400
Let's see if that's right.
682
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:00,560
Let's see how many of our 100
people went for Chekhov.
683
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:04,720
It's right.
684
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,880
There we are, winning you the point
there with room to spare.
685
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:10,360
Well done.
686
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:11,880
19 for Chekhov.
687
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,240
Which means, Joe and Iraj,
after only two questions,
688
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,040
you're straight
through to the final 2-0.
689
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,640
Very well played. You took us
through the board very nicely,
690
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:20,120
as well, there, gents. Nicely done.
691
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:21,600
Anton Chekhov, 19 points.
692
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,400
The Benedictine monk, you are quite
right, was Dom Perignon.
693
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,360
That would have scored
you eight points.
694
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:29,960
The juice of the fruit,
of course, is orange.
695
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,800
Would have scored you 71 points.
Now, this Impressionist artist -
696
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,640
not van Gogh. It is not van Gogh. It
is not van Gogh. I have a feeling...
697
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,480
Although I would not have accepted
that as an answer. "Not van Gogh?"
698
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:40,640
I wouldn't have accepted
"not van Gogh."
699
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:43,920
You're right, it is not van Gogh.
700
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:45,280
I'm picturing it, I've got it.
701
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:47,560
I need you to be more specific.
I think it is... Is it..?
702
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:49,600
It's Manet. Do you think?
703
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:52,440
Not Monet but Manet.
Before I reveal,
704
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:56,000
are you sure you don't want
to change to Monet?
705
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,800
Manet. Are you sure? Yeah!
I'm giving you a chance.
706
00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:02,600
No, I'm going Manet.
You're going Manet? Manet.
707
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:04,680
Is the right answer. Oh, phew!
Well done.
708
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:06,560
And it's a pointless answer,
as well,
709
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,040
so well done you - and well done
if you got that at home, as well.
710
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,160
Thank you very much, indeed.
So the pair leaving us
711
00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:14,040
at the end of the head-to-head
round, I'm afraid,
it's Rachel and Peter.
712
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:15,840
It's a shame to say goodbye to you
this show,
713
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,160
but it's not really a shame because
otherwise we'd only have seen you in
one show,
714
00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:21,840
and this way you'll be coming
back for another show, which is fun.
715
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:24,800
Much more fun for us. Anyway, thank
you so much for playing so well.
716
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:26,760
We will see you next time,
Rachel and Peter.
717
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:31,200
But, for Joe and Iraj, it's now
time for our Pointless final.
718
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:32,240
APPLAUSE
719
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,320
Congratulations, Joe and Iraj,
you've seen off all
720
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:39,360
the competition and you've won our
coveted Pointless trophy. Get in!
721
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,960
You now have a chance
to win our Pointless jackpot.
722
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:51,040
At the end of today's show,
the jackpot is standing at £2,000.
723
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:52,120
There it is.
724
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,360
APPLAUSE
725
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,800
But very, very well done.
726
00:34:57,800 --> 00:34:59,840
Very strong play,
right across the show.
727
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:03,080
Round Two, our capitals,
EU capitals and countries.
728
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:05,440
You really knocked it
out of the park there.
729
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:08,520
Lovely low scores.
2-0 in the head-to-head. Very good.
730
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:11,800
I think Anton Chekhov probably
the star answer there.
731
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:15,560
But if you would like us
to be tearing a "cheque off"...
732
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,240
..for the jackpot.
733
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:23,120
Although we don't pay by cheque,
734
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,480
it will be a direct transfer
into your bank account.
735
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:28,920
I don't want to ruin the pun,
but that's not...
736
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:30,560
That is not how we would pay you,
737
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:33,400
so you'd better think of a different
pun. OK, I'll...
738
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:36,960
I've been told that Huw Edwards
is asking us to hurry up.
739
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:38,240
OK. Fair enough, fair enough.
740
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:42,360
What would you like to see come
up in this last round?
741
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:45,360
Oh... Dreading saying anything now,
in case we don't get it if it comes
742
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:47,640
up, but geography.
743
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:50,520
That's our strongest, I'd say.
Like to see a bit more geography.
744
00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:53,000
OK. Physics. Nanotechnology,
a bit of astrophysics.
745
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:54,400
OK, all of that.
746
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:57,840
Football would be good,
but it's just me then, so...
747
00:35:57,840 --> 00:35:59,760
Game of Thrones would be nice.
748
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:01,640
That would be fun.
OK, well, let's see.
749
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,040
There will be four things
on the board, as ever.
750
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,880
You just have to pick
one and we have got...
751
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,720
Punk and alternative rock bands is
kind of, you know...
752
00:36:17,720 --> 00:36:20,560
Pop music is not our thing at all,
but this kind of is,
753
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:22,680
but now it's a bit...
It's your thing.
754
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:24,800
Yeah, but I don't know whether we
risk it.
755
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:27,280
I mean, the others, the year
1977 could be anything. Yeah.
756
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:28,600
George Washington.
757
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,400
Don't know. That's very vague.
758
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:34,480
Berlin, again, could be anything.
I don't know, what do you think?
759
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,360
I think we'd better go with
something where we can both
contribute.
760
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:39,760
Do you want to look at Berlin, then?
761
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:42,560
Berlin? Have you been?
762
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:46,320
Berlin is one of the only cities
in Germany I haven't been to, so...
763
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:48,880
Shall we go with
George Washington, hope that..
764
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:52,160
..watching Sleepy Hollow...?
Yeah. Yeah, George Washington.
765
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,560
You're going to go with
George Washington.
766
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:55,720
See, these guys are good.
767
00:36:55,720 --> 00:36:58,560
I like it when they go for the
general one, it's George Washington.
768
00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:01,120
Usually people just go, "Oh,
we'll do a film one or a music one."
769
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,200
But you've been super-smart
all the way through.
770
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:04,920
Gents, I hope one
of these suits you.
771
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,040
There is sort of a geography
question here for you.
772
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,720
We are looking for any
of the following, please...
773
00:37:09,720 --> 00:37:12,720
Any Cabinet member who served
under George Washington
774
00:37:12,720 --> 00:37:14,840
in George Washington's
two presidential terms.
775
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,920
We're looking for any states
that George Washington won
776
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:20,440
in his two election
victories in 1789 and 1792.
777
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,080
And we're looking for any
presidential election opponents -
778
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,680
anyone who stood against him
in those two elections and won
779
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:27,600
any electoral college votes.
780
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:29,960
So his Cabinet members,
US states he won in either
781
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,440
of those elections,
and anyone who won electoral college
782
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,440
votes in either of those
elections against him.
783
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:36,400
Very best of luck.
Thank you very much, indeed.
784
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,120
Now, as always, you've got a minute
to come up with three answers.
785
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:40,400
Just one has to be pointless.
786
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,760
Focus on whichever ones
of those you like the look of.
787
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:45,080
You don't have to answer all three.
Are you ready?
788
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:47,280
Yep. Yep. OK. There is your minute.
789
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:48,480
Your time starts now.
790
00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:51,040
Shall we just go for the states?
Because I don't know any...
791
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,240
Cabinet members, do you think John
Adams? Or Thomas Jefferson.
792
00:37:54,240 --> 00:37:56,680
But they are probably high-scorers
if they were.
793
00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:57,720
Look at states, then.
794
00:37:57,720 --> 00:38:00,680
States is probably the best bet.
Virginia. West Virginia.
795
00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:01,840
Massachusetts. Yes.
796
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:04,200
All New England, basically, so...
797
00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,120
Rhode Island.
798
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:08,760
Delaware. Delaware. Erm...
799
00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:10,360
New Hampshire. Connecticut.
800
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:12,000
Connecticut.
801
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:13,280
Maine.
802
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:15,000
New York?
803
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,520
New Jersey. Yeah. They're all there.
804
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:18,800
Pennsylvania.
805
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:20,040
Where are we going?
806
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:21,120
Virginia.
807
00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:23,040
Should we look at
putting John Adams in?
808
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:25,000
You want to go for it, yeah?
809
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,880
I don't have a clue on the
opponents. No.
810
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:30,680
John Adams. A couple of states.
811
00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:33,680
John Adams. Virginia, and..? Should
we say, like..? Vermont, or..?
812
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:35,720
Connecticut. Connecticut.
Connecticut, yeah.
813
00:38:35,720 --> 00:38:37,560
Yeah? Yeah.
814
00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:39,560
Ten seconds left.
815
00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:42,720
Let's use the ten seconds.
Definitely!
816
00:38:42,720 --> 00:38:44,440
Yeah, so we'll go with them? Yeah.
817
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:46,320
Virginia. Vermont.
818
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:48,760
Virginia... Virginia.
819
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:51,160
OK, that's your minute up.
Let's have your three answers
820
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:53,040
and say which category
you are answering in.
821
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,160
So Cabinet members,
we're going to go John Adams.
822
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:56,880
John Adams.
823
00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:58,880
US states, we are
going to go Virginia...
824
00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:01,520
Virginia... ..and Connecticut.
..and Connecticut.
825
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:04,880
Of those three, which is your best
shot at a pointless answer?
826
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:08,120
Probably Connecticut, I'd say.
Connecticut, we put last.
827
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,800
John Adams is going to be right.
John Adams is probably our worst.
828
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,520
Least likely to be pointless, John
Adams. OK, we will put that first.
829
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,240
And then Virginia
goes in the middle.
830
00:39:15,240 --> 00:39:18,000
OK, let's put those answers
up on the board in that order,
831
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,560
then, and here they are.
We have got...
832
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,000
Well, three good answers
on the board, there.
833
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:26,840
We've got to hope
they are all right,
834
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:29,320
we've got to hope that at least
one of those is pointless,
835
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:31,280
and you will then win
that jackpot of £2,000.
836
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,400
What would you like to do
with it, if you won?
837
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:36,160
I think I'd have to go out
for a nice, sturdy steak dinner.
838
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:37,360
LAUGHTER
839
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:39,400
Sturdy steak - my favourite kind.
840
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,440
The best kind of steak.
Yeah. Iraj?
841
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:44,000
I'd probably spend it
on new furniture, new appliances.
842
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,560
A nice coffee maker,
for when I start the PhD,
843
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:47,920
I think that will come in useful.
844
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,440
Very good indeed. OK, well, your
first answer was John Adams.
845
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:53,840
In this case, we were looking
for any of George Washington's
Cabinet members.
846
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:55,120
If John Adams is pointless,
847
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,120
you leave here with that jackpot
of £2,000.
848
00:39:57,120 --> 00:40:00,160
Let's see how many
people said John Adams.
849
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:04,720
Should have said Ichabod Crane!
850
00:40:04,720 --> 00:40:05,920
Not John Adams, I'm afraid.
851
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,600
Let's move quickly onto your next
answer, which was Virginia.
852
00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:11,520
We have now turned to the US states
that Washington won.
853
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,320
If Virginia is right
and it is pointless,
854
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:14,680
you leave here with £2,000.
855
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:17,080
How many of our 100 people said
Virginia?
856
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:21,360
Virginia's right.
857
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,880
John Adams, your first answer,
was incorrect, but Virginia
858
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:27,160
absolutely right.
Down we go, through the 30s,
859
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:28,840
into the 20s and the teens.
860
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:31,240
We're still going down,
we're into single figures.
861
00:40:31,240 --> 00:40:33,040
Stopping on eight.
862
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:36,880
Good answer, lovely
low score but, again, sadly,
863
00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:38,000
not a pointless answer.
864
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:40,360
So we have to move on
to your third and final answer,
865
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:43,880
Connecticut, which you thought
was probably your best shot
at a pointless answer.
866
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:46,120
Again, it's US states won
by George Washington.
867
00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:48,720
If Connecticut is pointless,
you leave here with £2,000.
868
00:40:48,720 --> 00:40:51,080
How many people said Connecticut?
869
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:54,840
Connecticut is right.
870
00:40:57,040 --> 00:40:59,920
Connecticut taking us
down through the 30s.
871
00:40:59,920 --> 00:41:02,000
Virginia took us down to eight.
872
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,640
Connecticut taken us past it,
still going down.
873
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:06,000
Down now to three.
874
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:07,040
Oh, bad luck!
875
00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:08,880
APPLAUSE
876
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:10,880
That's a great answer.
877
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,680
But I'm afraid you just didn't
manage to find that all-important
878
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:16,400
pointless answer, so I'm afraid
you don't win today's jackpot.
879
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,120
But you do get take home a lovely
Pointless trophy each,
880
00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,040
so very, very well done.
You've played so well.
881
00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:23,360
What a great performance it's
been. Well played, gents.
882
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:25,160
You took us through
almost every single...
883
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:27,520
Obviously, the early states
are the ones he was winning.
884
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:31,120
There is only one pointless answer
in that category, you will discover,
as we get to it.
885
00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:32,840
We'll start with those
Cabinet members.
886
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:35,560
John Adams was the Vice President,
it's not a member of the Cabinet.
887
00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:37,520
He would have scored points,
I suspect, anyway.
888
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:40,240
You could have had any
of the following...
889
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:45,200
..James McHenry and William
Bradford.
890
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:48,280
The only scorers there, Thomas
Jefferson would have scored you
points.
891
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:50,720
Alexander Hamilton, of course, he
now, since the musical,
892
00:41:50,720 --> 00:41:53,040
scored points. And Edmund Jennings
Randolph, as well,
893
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:54,760
he would have scored you one point.
894
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:56,360
Now, there's only one state.
895
00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:57,640
He won 15 different states -
896
00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:00,160
the only one that was
pointless was Kentucky.
897
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:03,680
Which you wouldn't think,
because it's slightly further away
898
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:05,600
from where all
the states started out.
899
00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:08,600
One point for New Jersey and
Vermont - you mentioned both of
those.
900
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,280
So you could have made it much
more painful for yourselves.
901
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:14,080
Two for North Carolina. Delaware and
Rhode Island both scored two -
902
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:16,800
you mentioned both of those, as
well. Massachusetts scored three.
903
00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:18,280
Pennsylvania, three, as well.
904
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:20,440
You mentioned an awful lot of the
low scorers.
905
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:22,280
Presidential election opponents.
906
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:25,240
John Adams would have scored
you three points on this one.
907
00:42:25,240 --> 00:42:27,600
George Clinton, not
the P-Funk superstar.
908
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:30,440
John Hancock, which is
where we get the expression,
909
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,840
you know, for a signature,
"Put your John Hancock on that."
910
00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:35,560
It is because he signed
the Declaration of Independence much
911
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:37,320
bigger than anyone else,
John Hancock.
912
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:38,760
That's what he's most famous for.
913
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:41,520
John Milton, John Rutledge,
Benjamin Lincoln, Edward Telford,
914
00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:44,680
James Armstrong, John Jay, Robert H
Harrison and Samuel Huntington -
915
00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:46,480
those were all
the pointless answers.
916
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:48,160
Very well done if
you got one at home.
917
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:50,000
Thank you very much,
indeed, Richard.
918
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:51,480
And thank you so much, Joe and Iraj.
919
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:53,480
I'm sorry you didn't
win our jackpot today.
920
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:56,280
That will, therefore, roll
over onto the next show,
921
00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:58,120
when we will be playing for £3,000.
922
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:00,400
APPLAUSE
923
00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:02,800
Join us then to see
if someone can win it.
924
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,160
Meanwhile, it's goodbye
from Richard... Goodbye.
925
00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:06,800
..and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye.
926
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:08,520
APPLAUSE
