00:00MUSIC PLAYS
00:22Thank you very much indeed.
00:23Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong and welcome to Pointless,
00:26the quiz where the lowest scorers are the biggest winners.
00:28Let's meet today's players.
00:34And couple number one.
00:36Hello, I'm Chris from Durham, this is my friend Leo from London.
00:39Couple number two.
00:40Hi, I'm Rosie from Wigan and this is my friend Daniel from London.
00:43Couple number three.
00:44Hi, I'm Ross from Crawley, this is my sister Lesley from Hastings.
00:48And finally, couple number four.
00:50Hi, I'm Aldis, this is Elaine, my wife Elaine.
00:52We're both from Barrow and Furness in Cumbria.
00:54And these are today's contestants.
00:56Thank you very much indeed, everybody.
00:58A very warm welcome to Pointless.
00:59It's lovely to have you all here.
01:01That just leaves one more person for me to introduce.
01:03A TV presenter with a best-selling book called Joyrider,
01:06which I read and sadly didn't give me any tips on how to hotwire a car.
01:09Here's my Pointless friend, it's Angela Scanlon.
01:13I can give, I don't have many tips on hotwiring a car.
01:17Particularly not ones I talk about in public.
01:19Okay.
01:19But I feel like I'd give it a go.
01:20I mean, I can do it with the old type, obviously, but it's the new.
01:23Well, of course.
01:24This is so unexpected.
01:25Of course I can.
01:26I could do it.
01:27Yeah, about five seconds.
01:28I could have that.
01:29Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:29That's fine.
01:30That's fine.
01:30It's the new type with the immobilisers.
01:33I just, they leave me.
01:34Oh, yeah.
01:34I mean, yeah.
01:35It's complicated.
01:36Yeah.
01:37Anyway, we've got straight into hotwiring cars.
01:39I can't believe it.
01:40Lovely.
01:40It's a juicy one.
01:41Also, this bunch looks so well-dressed.
01:45There's not one of you that I think would hotwire a car.
01:48No.
01:48No.
01:49You're right.
01:50Thank you very much indeed.
01:51Oh, I have such lovely news.
01:52Edward and Sue got through to the final.
01:54We loved Edward and Sue and they won the jackpot.
01:56So that's very exciting.
01:57So today's jackpot starts off back at £1,000.
02:00There we go.
02:01If everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.
02:09Just remember at all times, it's the pair with the highest score,
02:12et cetera, et cetera.
02:13You can keep your scores low and et cetera, et cetera.
02:16There we are.
02:16Best of luck to everybody.
02:17Our category for round one today is...
02:22Quizmasters.
02:22Can you all decide in your pairs who's going to go first,
02:24who's going to go second?
02:25And whoever's going first, please, step up to the podium.
02:32OK, and the question concerns...
02:40Just imagine that, Angela Scanlon.
02:42I mean, it will never work, OK?
02:43In a moment, we're going to show you a list of six quiz
02:47and game shows broadcast on British television.
02:49We are looking for anyone who is credited as hosting
02:52any of the shows listed.
02:53OK, thank you very much.
02:55So I'm going to put those quiz shows slash game shows up
02:57on the board and here they come.
02:59We have...
03:05Angela.
03:10This is according to imdb.com up to the end of July 2024
03:14and to be clear, we are only including the main programme series,
03:18not offshoots or special editions.
03:20There we are.
03:21Thank you very much indeed.
03:23Now, Chris.
03:23Hello.
03:24Welcome.
03:25From Durham.
03:26From Durham.
03:26Um, tell me all about yourself.
03:28In fact, tell all of us about yourself.
03:29It's not just me.
03:30I've been friends with Leo for about eight years now,
03:32but today is the first time we've actually met in person.
03:34So we've been online friends talking daily, pretty much.
03:38What was the most surprising thing about him?
03:40His height.
03:42Shorter, shorter than you were expecting.
03:44You were thinking, I thought he was taller than me.
03:46The moustache wasn't a surprise.
03:47Yeah, we used to have a beard, but you shaved it off this morning.
03:50Just this morning?
03:51Just this morning.
03:51It was an accident.
03:52What?
03:52How do you accidentally shave?
03:53Hang on a minute!
03:54Stop!
03:56Um, OK, I'm going to come to you in a minute.
03:59We'll have to cover the beard accident in a moment.
04:01Just have to hold your horses.
04:02Just wait.
04:03We'll get to that at the end of this round.
04:05OK, yes, right.
04:06Chris, continue.
04:07How come you met online?
04:08Were you gamers or you...?
04:09So, yeah, we played games online.
04:11I met his friend through that.
04:12Yes.
04:13And then he introduced me to Leo through that as well.
04:14And we just clicked and got on and...
04:16Wow!
04:17But you sort of know each other very well.
04:18Exactly.
04:18There's no awkward small talk.
04:19There's no...
04:20No, no, you finish each other's...
04:22Sentences.
04:23Exactly.
04:23Yes, good.
04:25Chris, I think you're going to be very good at this.
04:27I don't know why, I just get that from you.
04:29I might disappoint you.
04:30I know a few of them, but hopefully it's Logan.
04:34With the weakest link, Ramesh ranking Ethan.
04:37Ramesh Ranganathan, says Chris.
04:39Shall we see how many of our 100 people said that?
04:41Ramesh.
04:46Ramesh Ranganathan is absolutely right.
04:48Down we go.
04:49This is a terrific answer.
04:50Down he goes to four.
04:52And that's a great start to the show and indeed to the round.
04:55I'm just going to say, you don't actually even have to identify
04:57which of these shows you're going for.
04:59You can just throw a name out there.
05:00I'll give you a bonus.
05:01Well, you gave us a bonus there.
05:02You can just throw a name out, see if it sticks.
05:04There we are.
05:04Sorry.
05:05Ramesh Ranganathan began hosting The Weakest Link when it
05:08returned to screens in 2021.
05:10Julie Hesmond-Halsh provides the voiceover.
05:13She is perhaps best known for playing Hayley Cropper in
05:16Coronation Street.
05:17Thank you very much indeed.
05:19Now then, Rosie, welcome back to Pointless.
05:21Hi.
05:21Great to have you with us a second time.
05:23We need to know more about you, Rosie.
05:25So I'm from Wigan and I'm a marketing coordinator at a college.
05:29I like going to concerts.
05:31I like live music.
05:32Very good.
05:33Any particular genre of live music?
05:35Or are you fairly easy in your tastes?
05:37Yeah, a bit of a mixed bag, to be honest.
05:39Do you go to any classical live music?
05:42Not yet.
05:43Not yet.
05:44Not yet.
05:44The moment will come.
05:46Very good indeed.
05:46Now, Rosie hosts.
05:48Pretty awful board for me, I'm not going to lie.
05:50Is it?
05:51Yeah, I think I just watched Pointless and that's it.
05:54That is the right answer, by the way.
05:56So, literally the only one that I know, and it's pretty obvious, is Anne Robinson for Weakest Link.
06:02OK, you've said Weakest Link, but you didn't need to.
06:04You could just throw the name out.
06:06It's pinned the name on.
06:07Anne Robinson, shall we see how many of our 100 said that?
06:11Anne Robinson is absolutely right.
06:13Four is our only score at the moment.
06:1627 for Anne Robinson.
06:20Anne Robinson was the original host, of course,
06:22Weakest Link between 2000 and 2012.
06:26That's a good innings, isn't it?
06:27Countless international hosts have modelled themselves on her,
06:31often using her trademark mean style.
06:33Yes.
06:33She brought in a whole era of meanness.
06:37Yeah.
06:37I don't know if we can pin it all on her.
06:39She's not a mean person, she's actually rather a lovely person.
06:42She is lovely.
06:43But she specialised in that rather curled lip.
06:46Well, it was a caricature, wasn't it?
06:48Well, yes, but we hadn't had meanness in that way.
06:50And everyone around them relished it.
06:51I think we've now had enough of the mean now.
06:53I think we're ready for something gentle and fabulous.
06:57Exactly.
06:58Thank you very much.
07:00It's almost like I was fishing for that.
07:03Leslie, welcome back to Point.
07:05It's your third show.
07:06It is.
07:07It's your last chance to tell us more about yourself.
07:09So I enjoy running.
07:12I do three 5Ks a week.
07:14What? A week?
07:15Yeah.
07:16Three 5Ks?
07:17How long does it take you to 5K?
07:18You just dash it off in minutes?
07:19Around 30 minutes.
07:22So it's OK.
07:22That's very impressive.
07:23And I like hiking.
07:25I go walking in Seven Sisters Country Park and Hastings Country Park as well.
07:31Lovely.
07:31Very active.
07:33Um, Leslie, who are you going to go for?
07:35There is a few people.
07:37I don't know if I should go for my risky one.
07:41Um...
07:41Show three, Leslie.
07:42I know.
07:43If not now, when?
07:44Do it.
07:45Do it.
07:46Do it.
07:47I don't know if I will.
07:48She wasn't very persuaded by that, was she?
07:50No, I know.
07:51I went for it.
07:51Play it safe.
07:53Les Dennis.
07:54Les Dennis.
07:55Les Dennis.
07:55Let's find out.
07:57If Les Dennis is right, let's see how many of our 100 said it.
08:00Les Dennis is absolutely right.
08:0227 is our high score, four is our low.
08:04APPLAUSE
08:0747 for Les Dennis.
08:08I'm guessing that wasn't your risky one.
08:10No.
08:11Les Dennis was the host of Family Fortunes between 1987 and 2002.
08:16Thank you very much indeed.
08:17Now, Elaine, welcome to Pointless.
08:18It's lovely to have you here.
08:19Tell us all about yourself.
08:21Well, I'm very happily retired now and...
08:24What were you doing before?
08:25Most of my working life was in the Magistrates' Corps.
08:29I see.
08:30And give us a little snapshot of the kind of things you like to do
08:33in your retirement.
08:34Erm, I love sport.
08:36Yeah.
08:36But at my age now, I'm confined to watching it
08:39rather than actually participating in it.
08:41That's nice.
08:42So what's your favourite one to watch?
08:43Favourite one, tennis.
08:45Tennis.
08:46I've been to Wimbledon numerous times.
08:48There we are.
08:49Good for you.
08:49Now, Elaine, who are you going to go for?
08:53Erm...
08:53I think I'll go for...
08:57Magnus Magnusson.
08:59Magnus Magnusson says Elaine.
09:00Shall we see how many of our 100 said Magnus Magnusson?
09:05Magnus Magnusson is absolutely right.
09:07Well, 47 is our high score, 4 is our low.
09:09You passed the high score, there you are on 33.
09:11Good.
09:13Magnus Magnusson was, of course, the original host of Mastermind
09:17between 1972 and 1997 when the show would attract audiences,
09:22don't get upset, of up to 20 million people.
09:26You should see our point of celebrities.
09:29Yeah.
09:29Have you ever done Mastermind?
09:31No.
09:31No.
09:32What would be your subject, do you think?
09:34Tintin.
09:35Wow!
09:36I think.
09:37OK.
09:38Yeah.
09:38Nice.
09:39I mean, I'm not going to do classical music.
09:40Yeah, yeah.
09:41Everyone expects that, you know.
09:42Tintin feels a little left field.
09:44A little bit more recherche.
09:45Thank you very much indeed.
09:47We are halfway through the round.
09:48Let's have a look at those scores.
09:49I can tell you that for Chris, I mean, I thought it was a good score
09:52at the time.
09:52I now realise how good a score it was.
09:55Very well done indeed.
09:56The best score of the past.
09:57Then we travel from there to 27, which is where we find Rosie and Daniel.
10:00From there to 33, which is where we find Elaine and Al.
10:03And from there to 47, where we find our third showers,
10:05Lesley and Ross.
10:07Ross, it's going to have to be a low score from you.
10:09Good luck with that.
10:10We're going to come back down the line now.
10:11Will the second players please step up to the podium?
10:17Al.
10:18Thank you for bringing that shirt into all our lives.
10:21That's a lovely thing.
10:22Al, tell us all about yourself.
10:24Well, I'm semi-retired now and we both love going walking up the lakes
10:29and we sort of formed a group of people who do that called the Wobbly Walkers
10:35because there's probably about 10 or 12 of us and every one of us
10:38has got like a replacement knee or a limp or whatever it might be.
10:42So we're the Wobbly Walkers.
10:44It's just not quite as speedy as the other walkers.
10:46Or maybe you are speedy.
10:47And there's always a pub halfway around or at the end of the walk.
10:51Of course, like every good walk.
10:53I think at the end is better.
10:54Yes.
10:55Halfway.
10:56No, no, no.
10:56Save for two, I think.
10:57Yeah.
10:58There's always one person going, come on, come on.
11:00You're going, nah.
11:02No.
11:03Al, you are on 33.
11:04We're looking at a score of 13 to avoid becoming the high scorers
11:07at this early stage.
11:08What are you going to go for?
11:09I've got two in my mind and one going back a lot of years
11:13and I hope it was him for question of sport, David Coleman.
11:16David Coleman says, Al, here's your red line.
11:20Let's see what happens when we say David Coleman.
11:25It's right.
11:26And I think that's a brilliant answer.
11:29Look at that.
11:30Down it goes to five.
11:31Very well done indeed, Al.
11:33Taking your total up to 38.
11:34Very good.
11:35David Coleman hosted a question of sport between 1979 and 1997
11:39and he also spent time as the BBC's lead commentator
11:43on football and athletics.
11:45Thank you very much indeed, Angela.
11:46Now, Ross, tell us more about yourself for the last time, Ross.
11:50I like watching sport, so especially a bit of cricket.
11:53I support Sussex, so I try and watch them live as much as I can.
11:56Oh, that's good.
11:57Or sometimes pop to the Oval.
11:59Very exciting.
11:59Lovely being at the Oval.
12:00It is lovely, lovely ground.
12:01Beautiful ground.
12:02Now, Ross, you're on 47.
12:04You are the highest scorers.
12:05We are not saying goodbye to you at the end of this round,
12:07which means you're going to have to find a very, very low score.
12:09OK, I've got one in my mind.
12:11Good.
12:11Which I think could be a bit risky.
12:13It needs to be.
12:14So I'm going to go for Lily Savage.
12:16Lily Savage, says Ross.
12:17Shall we see how many of our 100 said Lily Savage?
12:20You don't have a red line.
12:23Lily Savage is right.
12:28Oh.
12:2926.
12:30I could have done with that going a little bit further down.
12:32I'll be perfectly honest with you, Ross.
12:33That takes your total up to 73.
12:35Lily Savage, also known as Paul O'Grady,
12:38was the host of Blankety Blank between 97 and 2002.
12:42And I didn't know this, but the name Savage was O'Grady's
12:45mother's maiden name.
12:47Thank you very much indeed, Angela.
12:49Now, Daniel, welcome back to Pointers.
12:51Terrific to have you with us a second time.
12:53Tell us a bit more about yourself, Daniel.
12:56So I am a museum exhibition designer.
12:58That's my job.
13:00That's just fun.
13:02I mean, it could be any kind of museum or do you specialise
13:04in a particular strain of museum?
13:07Yeah, we work mainly with science museums, history museums,
13:11cultural spaces.
13:12See, this is brilliant.
13:13Yeah.
13:14And it's the whole exhibition that you design.
13:16So the whole experience, how you move through it.
13:18Exactly, yeah.
13:19Brilliant, Daniel.
13:20You were on 27, which means 45 or less gets you into the next round.
13:24Now, what we did discover in the last show is that you grew up
13:27for the first 18 years of your life in Japan.
13:28Yes.
13:29So, yes, that's going to be a little bit of a gap, maybe,
13:32in these programmes.
13:33But there we are.
13:34So I really have no clue.
13:37OK, Ross and Lesley are suddenly getting a little bit excited
13:40at this stage.
13:42I'm just going to have to say a name that maybe they've appeared.
13:47I'm going to go for...
13:48It's the only name I can think of.
13:50James Acaster.
13:52James Acaster.
13:53Wouldn't that be brilliant?
13:54I mean, if he hasn't, he should.
13:56Well, listen, let's find out.
13:57James Acaster, you get a red line and the red line comes in here.
14:02It's just James Acaster has to be right to get you below that.
14:07Oh, Daniel, I'm sorry.
14:09But what a brilliant name to pluck out of Finnair, though.
14:12That scores you 100 points, takes your total up to 127.
14:14I'm sorry.
14:15I would personally love to see him post a question of sport.
14:18Absolutely.
14:19Yeah.
14:20There we go.
14:20Leo, the beard.
14:22You've kept a vestige.
14:24So, yeah, I woke up this morning, quite sleep-deprived,
14:26still quite groggy, just kind of slipped while shaving
14:27and then took out quite a big chunk of it.
14:29So I thought, what do I do?
14:30I kind of tried the Homer Simpson look.
14:32It didn't work.
14:33I didn't want to give up all of it.
14:35You've kept the little Tom Waits thing
14:36where you just grow a little tough there.
14:38Too much for me, I think.
14:39OK.
14:40Anyway, there we are.
14:41You are through to the next round, by the way.
14:42Doesn't matter what you score, even 100 points.
14:44We'll get you into round two.
14:45Yeah, so I was quite worried about this
14:47because my mind kind of blanked me to make a good first impression
14:49with Chris.
14:50So I'm going to go with Jeremy Paxman.
14:53Jeremy Paxman.
14:53Jeremy Paxman says,
14:55Leo, let's see how many of our 100 people said,
14:56Jeremy Paxman, there is no red line for you
14:58for the lovely reason you're already through.
15:05Jeremy Paxman.
15:06It's a cracking answer.
15:07Look at this.
15:08Down and down and down it goes.
15:09Ten.
15:09Very well done indeed.
15:10Taking your total up to 14.
15:12You're a good pair.
15:13Jeremy Paxman hosted University Challenge when it moved to the BBC
15:17from ITV in 1994 and continued to do so until 2023.
15:22There were only two pointless answers, would you believe?
15:25So I'll give you the best answers for each category.
15:28For a question of sport, David Vine would have scored you four.
15:31For blankety blank, now this is a mind blower.
15:34Bradley Walsh was the lowest answer.
15:36Scoring ten is probably...
15:37Not going to like that.
15:38I don't think he's going to like that.
15:40I like it.
15:41For Family Fortunes, Andy Collins was pointless.
15:45For Mastermind, John Humphreys scored six.
15:49For University Challenge, Amal Rajan, who became host in 2023,
15:53was pointless.
15:54And we've already had both hosts of The Weakest Link, of course.
15:58Well done at home if you got any of those.
16:00Thank you very much indeed, Angela.
16:01That brings us to the end of our first round.
16:02It means we have to say goodbye to our first pair, Daniel and Rosie.
16:05I am so sorry.
16:07But listen, you went out in a blaze of glory, though.
16:10As random shots in the dark go, that was an inspired one.
16:13It just happened to be wrong, but it was a brilliant one.
16:15Thank you so much for playing Daniel and Rosie.
16:18For the remaining three pairs, now time for round two.
16:21APPLAUSE
16:26And look at that.
16:27There we are.
16:28Down to three pairs.
16:29Very much in the teeth of pointless now.
16:31Best of luck to everybody.
16:33Our category for round two today is...
16:37..foods with short names.
16:39Can you all decide on your pairs?
16:40Who wants to go first?
16:40Who wants to go second?
16:41And whoever's going first, please step up to the podium.
16:48OK.
16:48And the question concerns...
16:51..four-letter foodstuffs.
16:53So, on each pass, we're going to show you six descriptions
16:56of foodstuffs that have a four-letter name.
17:00We'll also give you the initial letter of each food.
17:02Please give us the name of the food you think is the most obscure.
17:06Mmm.
17:07I do love the word foodstuffs.
17:09Foodstuffs.
17:09Foodstuffs.
17:10Foodstuffs.
17:10There we are.
17:11OK.
17:11Let's reveal our first board of six clues to four-letter foodstuffs.
17:17And we have...
17:27..and we have a few more questions.
17:30We'll see you in the next one.
17:32We'll see you in the next one.
17:35We'll see you in the next one.
17:39We'll see you in the next one.
18:08We'll see you in the next one.
18:10..and go for the long green pods and say okra.
18:13Okra, says Chris.
18:15Shall we see if that's right?
18:15Shall we see how many of our 100 said okra?
18:19Absolutely right, okra.
18:23Um...
18:23Chris, standing goes for 39.
18:25Well, it might be a high-scoring round.
18:27You never know.
18:2839 for okra.
18:29I'm salivating just looking at this.
18:31So am I.
18:32It's ridiculous, isn't it?
18:33Okra is used as a natural thickener for gumbo, a Creole stew.
18:38In Louisiana, okra often replaces chicken and sausage.
18:42Well, actually, yes, because it has that sort of starchy quality,
18:45doesn't it?
18:46It was, but I thought it was chewy.
18:48I'm absolutely starving now.
18:49Yes.
18:50Now, Lesley.
18:52Yeah.
18:52Which of the four-letter foodstuffs?
18:54I don't know.
18:55I'm going to go for the flat leavened bread.
19:00I'm going to go with naan.
19:01Naan, says Lesley.
19:03That's a good foodstuff.
19:04It's delicious.
19:05Let's see how many of our 100 said naan.
19:11Naan.
19:1139.
19:13We have 63 for naan.
19:15I mean, who knows?
19:16Hard to guess.
19:17What's your favourite type of naan?
19:18Kimi naan.
19:19Ooh.
19:20Yeah.
19:21Oh, Peshwari is lovely too.
19:22Oh, it's so delicious.
19:24The world's largest naan bread, did you need to know?
19:27You did.
19:27Was made in Canada in 2016 and weighed exactly 32 kilos.
19:33That's a lot.
19:34It's a good bit.
19:35Yeah.
19:35Thank you very much indeed.
19:36Elaine.
19:37You're the last person to have this board.
19:39Would you like to fill in all our blanks and then select one?
19:41I think the top one is brie.
19:44The third one down, spam.
19:46The Mexican pancake taco.
19:49And the bottom one, mint.
19:51I'm going to try spam.
19:54Spam.
19:54Yes.
19:55You're taking a demographic punt, aren't you, on our 100 there.
19:59Shall we see how many of our 100 said spam?
20:04Well, spam is right.
20:05Ooh!
20:0675 for spam.
20:08I'm sorry, though.
20:09Unexpected.
20:10Spam, would you believe, is particularly popular in Hawaii.
20:14Seven million cans consumed there every single year, which is particularly impressive, or wild,
20:22when you consider that there are under two million people living there.
20:25That's a lot of spam.
20:26Per capita.
20:27Per capita.
20:28So, yes, I mean, we've been taken beautifully through the board by Elaine.
20:31We have.
20:32I'm longing to know what those scores are.
20:34Up top, we had brie at 64, 57 for mint, and taco would have gotten you 45.
20:43All right.
20:43OK, so taco there.
20:45Mm-hm.
20:46Right.
20:46Before we come back down the line, let's have a quick look at those scores.
20:48I can tell you 39, Chris.
20:49Very well done, indeed.
20:51We go from 39 up to 63, where we find Lesley and Ross, and from there to 75, where we
20:55find
20:55Elaine and Al.
20:56Al.
20:57Yes.
20:58Think and choose well.
21:00Good luck with that.
21:00We're going to come back down the line now.
21:01Will the second players please step up to the podium?
21:06Now, we are going to put six more clues to four-letter foodstuffs up on the board.
21:10And here they are.
21:11We have got...
21:12White crystals of sodium chloride used to enhance flavour.
21:16S.
21:17Clarified butter used in Indian cuisine and for Hindu rituals.
21:21G.
21:22Marine pufferfish eaten as a delicacy in Japan that must be carefully prepared to remove all
21:27poisonous parts.
21:28F.
21:29Fruit with a hairy brown exterior that is green and sweet with black seeds on the inside.
21:34K.
21:35The meat of a young sheep, traditionally eaten with mint sauce.
21:39L.
21:40And mild Dutch cheese, usually coated in a casing of red wax.
21:44E.
21:47Al.
21:47You're on 75.
21:48You are our high scorers.
21:50I am.
21:50I know all of them bow one.
21:52Mm.
21:52And I think the one I'm going for is probably going to be high anyway.
21:55But the second one down is going for ghee.
21:59G.
21:59G.
22:00H double E.
22:01G.
22:02Thank you very much.
22:03A little bonus.
22:03We all learnt how to spell ghee.
22:05No red line for you, as you're the high scorers, but let's see how many of our 100 said ghee.
22:09That's a great choice.
22:11Ghee is right.
22:15Very well done.
22:1644.
22:17Our good score, taking your total up to 119.
22:21Images of gods are washed in ghee, sometimes used to light holy lamps and can be poured onto
22:27an altar fire.
22:29So aside from it being a four-letter foodstuffs.
22:31Thank you very much indeed.
22:33Ross, you are on 63.
22:3655 or less will get you into the head-to-head.
22:39So I know all of them bar one.
22:41Mm.
22:42So it's just picking the lowest.
22:44I think I'm going to go for...
22:46Let's go for E-dam.
22:48E-dam.
22:48Mm.
22:49At the bottom there.
22:50Shall we see?
22:51Here is your red line.
22:53Shall we see if we can get you below that with E-dam?
22:5967 for E-dam.
23:01Taking your total up to a lovely round 130.
23:04Famously the punchline to which cheese is made backwards.
23:07E-dam has been produced in the Netherlands since the Middle Ages.
23:11Moulds and barrels used to make the cheese were historically used by Dutch farmers as makeshift helmets.
23:17Very fetching.
23:18Thank you very much indeed.
23:19Now then, Leo.
23:20On 39.
23:2290 or less gets you into the next round.
23:25Would you like to talk us through the board?
23:26So, first one is salt.
23:29The third one there I think is the one that people can't get and I also can't remember what it
23:32is.
23:32Next one is kiwi.
23:34Last one is lamb.
23:35So there you are.
23:36I think I will go for kiwi, please.
23:37You're going to go for kiwi.
23:3990 is what you have to score.
23:4090 or less, here is your red line.
23:43What happens when we say kiwi?
23:46Kiwi's right now.
23:46Gets you through.
23:4872.
23:49But it takes your total up to 111.
23:53Ooh, a lucky number.
23:54Frizzle.
23:55Shall we go through the boards?
23:56I think we're going to have to.
23:57Shall we do the easy ones first?
23:58I think so.
23:59So, go on.
24:00Salt.
24:01Boom.
24:0273.
24:03Lamb.
24:0585.
24:05That's good.
24:06So, the famous puffer fish.
24:08I mean, my goodness.
24:09Do you know it?
24:09No, I don't.
24:10Because I can't tell you what it is.
24:12But I know when you tell me it, we will all go, yes.
24:13You will all know.
24:14I knew it.
24:15Fugu.
24:16Did you know it?
24:17Yes.
24:18Fugu.
24:18Fugu.
24:19That was the best answer.
24:21I would have given you nine.
24:23Thank you very much indeed.
24:24That brings us to the end of our second round.
24:25It means we have to say goodbye to our second pair.
24:27Now, Ross and Lesley, this pleases me not a bit.
24:29It's too sad, but it's been lovely having you on the show.
24:31Thank you so much for playing.
24:32Ross and Lesley, you've been brilliant.
24:34For the remaining two pairs, though, it is now time for the head-to-head.
24:36Thank you very much.
24:37Thank you very much.
24:42Huge congratulations, Chris and Leo, Elaine and Al.
24:45You are now one step closer to the final and a chance to play for our jackpot,
24:49which currently stands at £1,000.
24:52But we have a little opportunity now, before the head-to-head,
24:55to see if we can find a couple of pointless answers
24:56and hurl some more money into that jackpot.
24:59So here goes, just for fun.
25:01We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...
25:06..bebop musicians as they could, Angela.
25:09You will see six options.
25:11Two are scoring, two are pointless,
25:12and two are not names of bebop jazz musicians at all.
25:16£250 in the jackpot for each pointless answer.
25:20Thank you very much indeed.
25:21So can you spot the pointless bebop musicians from these six possibles?
25:27And we have Dizzy Gillespie, Cannonball Adderley,
25:31Mary Lou Williams, Zach Hansen, Roxy Carlin and Sonny Stitt.
25:37Who knows anything?
25:39Who wants to share some things?
25:40I think Dizzy Gillespie is definitely one.
25:43Cannonball is definitely right.
25:45OK, so we've got two names there.
25:47I think Dizzy Gillespie's scoring, I had to guess.
25:51The last four, no clue.
25:52OK, well, Chris and Leo, who would you like to nominate?
25:55I think we go from the bottom four, should we go for...
25:58Roxy Carlin?
25:59Yeah, go on then.
25:59Roxy Carlin.
26:00What instrument do you think Roxy Carlin plays?
26:03Saxophone.
26:03Sax.
26:04Tenor sax.
26:05Shall we see?
26:06Is Roxy Carlin a pointless bebop jazz musician?
26:13That's annoying.
26:14Elaine and Al, who would you like to nominate?
26:17Pure guess, obviously, Cannonball Adderley.
26:20Well, you mentioned Cannonball Adderley.
26:22Maybe Cannonball is pointless.
26:24Shall we find out?
26:24Is Cannonball Adderley a pointless bebop musician?
26:28Well, as Leo said, it's right.
26:36And look at that.
26:37Very well done indeed.
26:39A beautiful bit of double act work there.
26:41Very good.
26:43Cannonball Adderley was a saxophonist.
26:45Great word to say.
26:46Part responsible for the development of bebop into hard bop.
26:50And it was, of course, pointless.
26:51Roxy Carlin, guys.
26:53Roxy is the middle name of Olympic swimmer Jazz Carlin.
26:57She won two silver medals for Team GB at Rio in 2016.
27:02You were right about Dizzy Gillespie, but he scored 12.
27:05And then we had Sonny Stitt, who would have scored you two.
27:10So, Xander, one of these is pointless and one is a red herring.
27:13What's your money on?
27:14Well, I think I've heard of Mary Lou Williams and I'm not sure.
27:17Mary Lou is, I think, a country musician.
27:20I'm going to say.
27:21Is that Lou?
27:22You put Lou in the middle of her name.
27:23It's a country musician suddenly.
27:25Zach Hansen is my pointless.
27:28OK.
27:28That is a red herring.
27:30Oh, no.
27:31He's the drummer of the band Hansen.
27:33Oh, I see.
27:33Who sang Mbop.
27:35Yes.
27:35There we are.
27:36I like it.
27:36Great tune.
27:37And Mary Lou Williams is not a country singer.
27:39She's a pianist and composer known as the mother of bebop.
27:43And she was pointless.
27:44There we go.
27:45Well done.
27:45You managed to find a pointless answer.
27:47Which means we can sit back and watch £250 add themselves to the jackpot.
27:50There they are.
27:51£1,250.
27:53But who will be playing for?
27:54Let's find out in the head-to-head.
27:56APPLAUSE
28:01OK.
28:01The first pair to win two questions will be playing for that jackpot.
28:03And you're now allowed to confer before you give your answers.
28:05Best of luck to both pairs.
28:07Here is our first question.
28:09And it's all about...
28:11Primates in film.
28:13Yes.
28:13We are going to show you pictures from five films which all feature non-human primates.
28:18We've included initials of the titles and the years of release.
28:22Please tell us the most obscure film title.
28:24Thank you very much indeed.
28:26Can you identify these films starring non-human primates?
28:29And we have...
28:55And E, G-I-T-M, 1988.
29:04Chris and Leo, you get to go first.
29:07So now...
29:07Yeah.
29:08AC and D.
29:09I think D is the best ones we know.
29:11Yeah, you should go for D.
29:12Yeah.
29:12Can we go for D, Dr Dolittle?
29:15D, Dr Dolittle.
29:17There we are.
29:18Elena now.
29:19Can you talk us through that board?
29:22Well, A is The Jungle Book.
29:24B is Every Which Way But Loose.
29:28C is King Kong.
29:30And E is Gorillas in the Mist.
29:33You think B?
29:34Yeah.
29:35B, Every Which Way But Loose.
29:36Every Which Way But Loose.
29:37OK, so we have Dr Dolittle and Every Which Way But Lose.
29:39Chris and Leo went for Dr Dolittle for D.
29:42Shall we see how many of our 100 said that?
29:46Dr Dolittle, absolutely right.
29:49And that goes down to 57.
29:52Meanwhile, Elaine and Al have gone for Every Which Way But Loose for B.
29:57Shall we see how many of our 100 said that?
30:01Every Which Way But Loose is right, and it wins the point for you.
30:06Very well done indeed.
30:07Down it goes to 22.
30:08And it means, Elaine and Al, after one question, you are up 1-0.
30:12Well, Elaine took us brilliantly through the board and chose the best answer as well.
30:17Oh.
30:18So you had King Kong at 84.
30:21That's what that would have given you.
30:23The Jungle Book was 40.
30:26And then Gorillas in the Mist, 30.
30:30Well done.
30:31All my life, I've been saying Every Which Way But Lose.
30:37And I've just realised it's loose.
30:39Well, I thought it was Gorillas in the Midst.
30:42Oh, really? No.
30:43Did you really?
30:44Wow.
30:45There we are.
30:45Well, we've learnt something.
30:47Every day is a school day.
30:48Every day.
30:48How do you like that?
30:49There we are.
30:50OK, here comes your second question.
30:51Chris and Leo, you have to win this one to stay in the game.
30:53So good luck.
30:54Our second question is all about crossing the Channel.
30:59Angela.
30:59We are going to give you five towns and cities which are connected either by Eurostar trains
31:04or the Eurotunnel shuttle.
31:06But we have put the letters of the destinations in alphabetical order.
31:11Please unscramble the letters and give us the destination, the fewest of our 100 new.
31:17Thank you very much indeed.
31:18So can you unscramble these alphabetical anagrams?
31:21Here they come.
31:22And they are all places connected on either side of the Channel.
31:31OK.
31:35Elaine and Al.
31:37What's the bottom one?
31:38Calais.
31:40Calais.
31:40I'll go Calais.
31:41Calais.
31:42Yeah.
31:43I think we'll just go for the bottom one, Calais.
31:45You're going to go for Calais.
31:47So we have Calais.
31:48Chris and Leo, can you talk us through the board?
31:49So the top one is London.
31:51The second one, we're not sure.
31:53The third one is Folkestone.
31:55And the fourth one, I think, is Brussels.
31:58I think we'll go for the third one?
31:59Yeah.
32:00Third one, Folkestone.
32:01OK, Folkestone.
32:02So we have Calais and we have Folkestone.
32:04Elaine and Al went for Calais.
32:05Shall we see how many of our 100 said Calais?
32:10Calais's right.
32:15Down goes to 35.
32:18Meanwhile, Chris and Leo have gone for Folkestone.
32:21Shall we see how many of our 100 said that?
32:22Folkestone.
32:26Folkestone is right.
32:29And, yes, that wins it.
32:31Very well done indeed.
32:32That's what we needed.
32:33Down goes to nine.
32:34It means, Chris and Leo, after two questions, you're back in the game.
32:36It's one all.
32:37Well done.
32:38Clearing the board, mostly.
32:41London was the first one at 71.
32:44Then we had Brussels.
32:46Would have given you 48.
32:47Any idea on that final one?
32:50Rotterdam.
32:51It is Rotterdam.
32:52I would have given you five.
32:54Thank you very much indeed.
32:56Now, then, here comes the third question.
32:58Whoever wins this one goes through to the final and plays for that jackpot.
33:01Best of luck to both pairs.
33:02Here it comes.
33:03It is all about...
33:06..things that contain letters of the Greek alphabet.
33:09We are going to give you five clues of people, titles or things
33:12that contain the name of a letter of the Greek alphabet.
33:15However, we've blanked out the words that is shared with that Greek letter.
33:19Please give us what you think is the most obscure Greek letter.
33:22It makes more sense when you see it.
33:24Thank you very much indeed.
33:26Here are the five clues.
33:28See if you can spot the Greek alphabet letters that are missing.
33:31Best Supporting Actress Oscar winner for her role as Velma Kelly in Chicago,
33:36Catherine, blank, Jones.
33:39The dominant masculine animal or person in a group, blank, male.
33:44US duo who recorded the 1986 UK No. 2 single,
33:48I Can't Wait, blank, Shoes.
33:52Statesman who became President of China in 2013, blank, Jin Ping.
33:58And drugs that are used to treat patients with high blood pressure
34:02or heart problems, blank, Blockers.
34:05There we are.
34:06Chris and Leo will go first.
34:09What's the third one?
34:09I think it's Delta, I'm not sure.
34:13Do you want to go for Delta and have a guess?
34:14I don't mind.
34:15I think we'll take a bit of a risk at the third one and go for Delta Shoes.
34:20Delta Shoes, say Chris and Leo.
34:22Now then, Elaine and Al, do you want to talk us through that board?
34:26Catherine Zeta-Jones.
34:28Catherine Zeta-Jones.
34:29Alpha Male.
34:30Beta Blockers is the bottom one.
34:31Bottom one.
34:32We're going to go for the President of China, Xi Jinping.
34:36Xi.
34:38So, Xi and Delta, or rather Delta and Xi, in the order they were given.
34:42Chris and Leo went Delta Shoes.
34:44Shall we see if that is right?
34:45Shall we see how many of our 100 said it?
34:50Not Delta Shoes.
34:52Meanwhile, Elaine and Al have gone for Xi Jinping.
34:57Shall we see if that is right?
34:58Xi.
35:01It is right, and that means you win the point.
35:03It's all it had to be.
35:04It was correct.
35:06It's a good score, though.
35:07Down it goes to 12.
35:08But crucially, it was right, and it means after three questions, Elaine and Al, you're through
35:12to the final.
35:132-1.
35:14It's Xi Jinping, but we can accept that.
35:17So, from the top we had Zeta.
35:19Catherine Zeta-Jones, of course, would have gotten you 75.
35:24Alpha, an Alpha Male.
35:2666.
35:28Beta, down the bottom, would have given you 77.
35:30Devin, did you know this one?
35:32Not Delta Shoes.
35:34Well, I was going to say N-U.
35:36Is it N-U?
35:36New Shoes?
35:37New Shoes.
35:38Exactly right.
35:40And it was eight.
35:41There we are.
35:42Thank you very much.
35:42Indeed.
35:43That means the pair leaving us at the end of the head-to-head round, Chris and Leo,
35:46it is you.
35:46It means you'll be back.
35:47And well done.
35:48I think it's all gone very well.
35:49Yep.
35:49I mean, he's a bit shorter than you expected, but he's pretty good on Pointless.
35:53Can I?
35:54Yeah.
35:54That's all right, yeah.
35:55Excellent.
35:55Well, thank you so much for playing, Chris and Leo.
35:58For Elaine and Al, though, it's now time for the Pointless fight.
36:04Congratulations, Elaine and Al.
36:06You have fought off all the competition and you have won our coveted Pointless trophy.
36:16You now have a chance to win the Pointless jackpot, and at the end of today's show,
36:19the jackpot is standing at £1,250.
36:24The question is, what would you like to see come up?
36:25What's going to help you win that?
36:27Football.
36:29Animals, perhaps.
36:30Animals.
36:31Geography.
36:32Geography.
36:33OK.
36:34I mean, yeah, that's enough.
36:35That's enough to be going on with.
36:36Let's see what comes up on the board.
36:38Four things as ever.
36:39Let's hope there's something here that you like.
36:42Fantasy Authors.
36:44World's Strongest Man and Woman.
36:47Operation Mincemeat.
36:49Lions.
36:50They're animals.
36:51The British lions.
36:53What do you think?
36:54Fantasy Authors.
36:55I mean, I like reading, but not fantasy.
36:58No, no.
36:58Some just go for lions.
37:00Yeah.
37:00We'll go for lions.
37:01Go for lions.
37:02Excellent.
37:03Lions.
37:04Lions.
37:05Lions.
37:05We are looking for any country which has a population of lions in the wild.
37:09This is according to the IUCN's Red List of Threatened Species.
37:13We are including countries where they are listed as possibly extinct, but not countries where they're listed as extinct in
37:20the wild.
37:21This is as of 2023.
37:23And as ever by country, we mean a sovereign state that is a member of the UN in its own
37:28right.
37:29Or we are looking for the name of anyone who has captained the British and Irish Lions rugby union team
37:37from 1950 up to 2024.
37:39This is for the men's team as the women's team was only launched in 2024 and hasn't toured yet.
37:46It's the very best of luck.
37:48Thank you very much indeed.
37:49Now, as always, you've got up to one minute to come up with three answers.
37:52All you need to win that jackpot is for just one of those answers to be pointless.
37:55If you can find three pointless answers, we'll throw in a £500 bonus.
37:59Are you ready?
38:00We are.
38:01OK, let's put 60 seconds up on the clock.
38:04There they are.
38:04Your time starts now.
38:07What are countries?
38:11What countries?
38:11Central African.
38:13Democratic Republic of the Congo, probably.
38:15Hmm.
38:16Botswana.
38:17Botswana.
38:18Yeah.
38:19Central African.
38:21Kenya, they've got the name.
38:22Yeah, well, I see.
38:23Yeah.
38:24What about British Lions?
38:28Bill Bowman, isn't he, Captain?
38:29Bill Bowman.
38:30Must have been.
38:31I'll try it, try it.
38:32Bill Bowman.
38:33Yeah.
38:33The Lions, though.
38:35Oh.
38:35That's...
38:35That's...
38:35Yeah.
38:41The Irish ones?
38:43Yeah, but I can't think of his name.
38:45Oh.
38:46Oh.
38:49Yeah.
38:53Give me a clue.
38:55Golden God.
38:5510 seconds left.
38:57Bino Driscoll.
38:58Yeah.
38:59Oh, Fred.
39:00Bill Bowman.
39:00Bino Driscoll.
39:02Bill Bowman.
39:04Bino Driscoll.
39:05And...
39:06The Lions.
39:07That is your time up.
39:08Botswana.
39:08OK.
39:09What answers are you going to give me?
39:11We'll go for Bill Beaumont.
39:12Bill Beaumont.
39:13Yep.
39:14Brian O'Driscoll.
39:15Brian O'Driscoll.
39:16And for the countries with native populations, Botswana.
39:21Botswana.
39:21Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?
39:24I'd say Brian O'Driscoll.
39:26OK.
39:27Brian O'Driscoll will put last.
39:28Least likely to be pointless?
39:29Bill Beaumont.
39:31And then Botswana in the middle.
39:32Bill Beaumont, Botswana, Brian O'Driscoll.
39:34OK.
39:35Well, let's put those answers up on the board in that order.
39:37And here they are.
39:38We have...
39:40Bill Beaumont, Botswana and Brian O'Driscoll.
39:43All the Bs.
39:45Now, if one of these turns out to be pointless,
39:47you'll be leaving here with £1,250.
39:50Not bad for an afternoon's work.
39:52What would you like to do with that, Elaine?
39:54A couple of nights stay up in the Lake District somewhere
39:57with some of our Wobbly Walker friends.
39:59That would be nice.
40:01Bed and breakfast and evening meal.
40:03Oh, I think that would be very nice.
40:04You'd have a nice wobbly walk back from the evening meal.
40:07That's right.
40:08Al, how about you?
40:08Anything you want to add to that?
40:09Well, it's a big burst in next year for this one,
40:12with a zero on the end, so...
40:14Very important.
40:15OK.
40:15Well, let's have a look at these answers and put them to the test.
40:18Bill Beaumont was your first answer.
40:20The one you thought was probably least likely to be pointless.
40:22Let's find out how many people named Bill Beaumont
40:24as a British and Irish lions captain.
40:27Well, he's right.
40:29Wow.
40:30If Bill Beaumont goes all the way down to zero,
40:32you will leave here with £1,250.
40:34Down we go with Bill Beaumont, through the teens,
40:36into single figures, still going down with Bill Beaumont,
40:38still going down to four.
40:40This is exciting.
40:41Four for Bill Beaumont.
40:42It bodes very well for your subsequent answers.
40:45Botswana.
40:45We've now gone for countries with native populations of lions.
40:49Shall we see how many of our 100 said Botswana?
40:53Well, Botswana is also right.
40:55We went down to four with Bill Beaumont.
40:58Can we go lower with Botswana?
41:00Might we go down to pointless for £1,250?
41:03Down in... Oh, no.
41:0511 for Botswana.
41:08We now turn to Brian O'Driscoll.
41:10This is the one you thought was your best shot at a pointless answer,
41:12so let's find out if Brian O'Driscoll is right.
41:14Let's find out if he is pointless for £1,250.
41:20Well, he's right.
41:21Bill Beaumont was also correct as a captain of the British and Irish Lions.
41:25Brian O'Driscoll now takes us down through the teens.
41:28Still going down in single figures with Brian O'Driscoll.
41:30Still going down to one.
41:32Oh, I'm so sorry.
41:35That's really annoying.
41:36I'm worried.
41:36Oh, but you played beautifully.
41:38Three lovely answers there.
41:40I'm afraid, though, we didn't find a pointless answer,
41:42so I'm afraid you don't win the jackpot today.
41:44But let's forget about that because you do win today's pointless trophies
41:46and richly deserve two.
41:48You've played phenomenally well.
41:50Elaine and Al, thank you.
41:51Hard. Look, that was so close.
41:53I loved watching the working out.
41:55Let's have a look at some of the pointless answers,
41:58starting with countries with native populations of lions.
42:02Benin, Central African Republic, Malawi, Senegal.
42:08And other pointless answers were...
42:11Burkina Faso, Chad, Cote d'Ivoire, Gabon, Guinea-Bissau, Mali, Somalia, South Sudan and Togo.
42:21Moving on to post-war captains of the British and Irish lions.
42:26Here are some of the pointless answers you could have had.
42:29Alan Wynne-Jones, Gavin Hastings, Sam Warburton and Willie John McBride.
42:33The only scoring answers here were Martin Johnson, Bill Beaumont, as you mentioned,
42:40Brian O'Driscoll and Cliff Morgan.
42:43Every other lions captain was pointless.
42:45Very well done if you got any of those pointless answers at home.
42:48Thank you very much indeed, Angela.
42:50And thanks so much, Elaine and Al.
42:51I'm sorry we didn't win our jackpot today.
42:53That will therefore roll over onto the next show,
42:55when we will be playing for £2,250.
42:59Join us then to see if someone can win it.
43:01Meanwhile, it's goodbye from Angela.
43:03And it's goodbye from me.
43:05Goodbye.
43:10Bye.
43:14Bye.
