Just the 3

Oh right, sorry! Just assumed when we give multiple answers for all the other rounds that we did it for all of them.

I'm actually annoyed with myself as Return of the Naked Chef was very guessable :pac:

Alexander Armstrong on the gruelling filming of Pointless

In his weekly column, Alexander Armstrong discusses recording Pointless, crowd-pleasing hymns, and finding he now has four llamas

We have just come to the end of a mammoth Pointless recording run (Pointless is a quiz show that I co-host every day on BBC One).
We finished on Friday with the 206th programme of this batch.
Which must mean that over the past few months I have asked around 1,300 contestants what they do and how they like to fill their time, then asked 1,236 questions, having given 123,600 people, therefore, 123,600 seconds to come up with the answers.
The most ridiculous thing of all is that come the end of this week, once the euphoria of completion has subsided, I will really miss it.
I daresay long-term prisoners miss their jailers on release and pine for the ruthless structure of their days inside, but I think in my case this isn’t any form of Stockholm syndrome.
It just so happens that testing the depths of people’s knowledge – especially with the sharp comic brain of Richard Osman on hand – is an endlessly enjoyable pursuit. Let’s hope people continue to enjoy watching it…

Wasn't guessed, but checking Wiki and it didn't win so would have scored 100. Tough round. I'd not have known any if it wasn't for Once having the Irish connection.

Looked it up, nominated, no win. That's a big fat 100 for me.
