After both passes are complete, the team with the highest score for the round is eliminated from the game. In the event of a tie for high score, the affected teams are allowed to confer and offer one more answer to the question as a tiebreaker. If the scores remain tied after this pass, the question is thrown out and a new one is played. All scores are reset to zero at the beginning of Round 2. For round four, only one question is asked and this round sees the player who has so far accumulated the least number of Pointless Trophy Tokens, eliminated from the game. For example, the topic is TV & Radio, any actor who is credited in seven or more episodes of Little Britain. If you answered David Tennant, then you would be incorrect! But if you said Stephen Aintree, then you are correct and awarded just one point. If you selected David Walliams, you will get 56 points which is not the idea at all.With the start of Series 11 of Pointless Celebrities, the show's set design was changed with some new graphics and an updated intro replaced the one used since the show's debut; this extended to Series 19 of Regular Pointless. Five books have been released of the show: The 100 Most Pointless Things in the World, The 100 Most Pointless Arguments in the World, The Very Pointless Quiz Book (not to be mistaken for The Pointless Book), The A-Z of Pointless: A brain-teasing bumper book of questions and trivia and "A Pointless History of the World". All five were released by Coronet. In the books, Armstrong and Osman give their insight into pointless matters.

In case you’ve never actually seen it, the show – fronted by Richard Osman and Alexander Armstrong – involves teams of two having to guess, through a series of rounds, correct but obscure answers to questions.For instance, if the question is " name a film starring Leonardo DiCaprio"; Titanic is not a good answer as 88 people in the survey gave this. However give The Man in the Iron Mask as an answer and you score 6 points. Any correct answers the survey didn't think of are Pointless answers and therefore awarded a most desirable zero points.
