BBC’s Pointless Is Now Casting Quiz-Loving Pairs in the UK

Do you love trivia, obscure facts, and friendly competition? BBC’s popular daytime quiz show Pointless is now looking for fun, outgoing pairs to take part in a new series.

Unlike traditional quiz shows, Pointless challenges contestants to find correct answers that as few people as possible would think of. The lower the score, the better. Each episode features teams of two competing through several rounds of general knowledge questions, with the winning pair getting the chance to play for the jackpot and the coveted Pointless trophy.

The show is looking for quiz-loving pairs with great personalities and a strong knowledge of unusual facts. Whether you want to apply with a friend, family member, colleague, or someone who always seems to know the most random information, this could be your chance to appear on one of the UK’s best-loved quiz shows.

Applicants must be 18 years old or over and must be a current legal resident of the UK, Channel Islands, or the Isle of Man.

Applications are open online now, with the closing date listed as 23:59 on Wednesday, 23 September 2026. Auditions may begin before the deadline, so interested applicants are encouraged to apply as soon as possible.

Pointless is produced for the BBC by Remarkable Television, part of Banijay UK.
