      Pointless is a quiz show produced by Endemol UK for the BBC, hosted by Alexander Armstrong and Richard Osman. The show is unique in that it tasks players with finding obscure answers to questions and trying to obtain a low score. The series began airing on BBC Two on 24 August 2009, and was later moved to BBC One in 2011. To date, there have been nine series, plus four celebrity series. A record jackpot of £24,750 was won by David and Jonathan in the episode first transmitted on Friday 8 March 2013.
