Pointless
Pointless is a British
quiz show produced by
Endemol UK for the
BBC, hosted by
Alexander Armstrong and
Richard Osman. Contestants on the programme, who play in teams of two, are tasked with finding the most obscure answers to general knowledge questions based on pre-conducted public surveys of 100 people from the UK. A correct answer which none of the 100 people in the survey gave is deemed a "pointless" answer. In the main game, a pointless answer adds £250 to the jackpot; in the final a pointless answer is needed to win the jackpot.
