So, Pointless is starting again today but on BBC One this time at 5:15PM. Anyone watching it?

It's celebrity specials this week and Series 4 continues next Monday. Also, I think Richard said on his Twitter page that there are going to be about 120 episodes! :D

Maybe it's me, cos when I clicked this thread I thought you were gonna go on a huge rant :lol:

Pretty decent show too, I catch this once in a while and it's great fun. We could do a forum version, actually.

I always think it's a trashy BBC Three countdown when I hear Pointless Celebrities advertised :-D

I've watched the two BBC1 episodes there have been so far.

It's an OK show, easy to get the hang of. I suppose I won't get a proper look at it until next week, when it's back to normal editions.

I remember in one of the episodes last year the question was about Mr. Men characters and I collected all the books as a child so got all the pointless answers :-D

DIMBLEBOT CLONE COMMENDS "ARMSTRONG" AND "OSMAN" ON THE WAY THEY REGULARLY DEFEAT THE PARTICIPANTS OF "POINTLESS", WHO IRONICALLY ARE POINTLESS.

It's a very good and original gameshow. I only got into it a few months ago, but since then, I've been to see 3 recordings of it (with another forum member :P), including one of the celebrity editions (the one with John Craven).

It was nice to see my name appear in lights yesterday, when the category was "The Jam" singles. :-D

Yes, I noticed that! :P

Anyway, it's a really fun show with great playalongability, and I enjoyed going to see a recording about a month ago, highly recommend going to see it when the filming run returns october/november time, even if hilarious warm-up man Mark might be otherwise engaged... :suspect:

I'm surprised no one said Ocarina for Wind Instrument. I thought it was funny when he mentioned Zelda: Ocarina of Time! :P

I've been a fan from the very first show and have watched it since. What I like about the show is not just the actual format of the quiz, but I also like the host Alexander Armstrong and his "Pointless Friend" Richard Osman and all the banter they have during the show.

I've also been to see the show being recorded. Coincidently I also went with a forum member to see the show being recorded. ;)

I've seen a total of 5 episodes being recorded for the latest series and it was good fun. It was actually the first time I had ever been in a TV studio and so it was bit surreal. I can also confirm for anyone that hasn't seen Richard Osman stand up that he is really, really tall. :P

If I get the chance then I will definitely go and see some more recordings when they start filming again.

The show has changed a bit since the first series. If you haven't seen an episode from series 1 then there's a full episode on YouTube here -

Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WooWP2NEHwk
Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3U7GtuT3aY
Part 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNtGJp1TmC8

LOL at the Rick Astley round on today's Pointless! Best one I've seen in the short period of time I've been watching!

Wow! No one has still won the jackpot yet. It's at £13,250 now. The highest it has ever got so far! :o
There has been a lot of answers scoring 1 POINT. How annoying must that be?

EDIT: £14,750 now!

Yep, I saw it on iPlayer today. I would've been hopeless at thinking of Marlon Brando films. I suck at film questions.

Wow, the jackpot has been won in the last 3 shows in a row! :D
Also, tomorrow will be the 200th show. They'll be bringing back all the players that scored 200! :lol:

OMG! FOUR jackpot wins in a row now! :shock:
