    Samuri has been almost as entertaining as an episode of pointless. I enjoy it but used to watch it on iplayer so I could skip past all the shit chat/chit chat.

    No-one else has said that. I stand by my original point. Lots of answers, no-one agrees.
    It’s just like an episode of Pointless. Yes, I get it now.

    Right. There are different rounds.

    Round 1: four pairs playing, open ended question, many many answers, no prompts. Lowest score wins. Not necessarily any answers that are actually pointless.

    Round 2: three pairs playing, a finite number of answers you have to guess the most obscure, usually based on clues, but can be ‘fill in the blanks’ type questions. So it’ll be Tour de France winners and the clues will be ‘side burned British rider’, ‘Spaniard who won 5 consecutive in the 90s’. Etc. or it’ll be B—dl– W-g–n- or something.

    Round 3: head to head, best of three rounds, usually pictures of people from a certain category.

    Final round: one team, between one and three categories (it changes), no clues, aiming for the answers no one gives. You give three answers, if one of these is a ‘Pointless’ answer, you win. If even one person surveyed has said it then you don’t.

    I’m guessing you’ve dipped in at rounds 2 or 3, hence the basis of your confusion.

    Thanks chaps. Richpips and my boss have both explained it in one sentence so some people clearly do understand it.

    Chip from STW wasn’t on Pointless last week!

    This Grub Smith then, would anyone who didn’t gamble or read glossy menz mags know who he was?

    I’ve kept 1 edition of Pointless on my Sky+ cos the most gorgeous woman I’ve ever seen was on it. Now that’s Pointless!

    I didn’t recognise his name instantly but now remember him from Sin Cities which was an entertaining program of it’s time.
