Good evening, and welcome to Have I Got News For You. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
I'm John Bishop. In the news this week, | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
after putting his political ambitions on hold, | 0:00:42 | 0:00:44 | |
David Miliband has said he's happy to pursue other interests | 0:00:44 | 0:00:48 | |
outside of politics. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:50 | |
During the recording of the Kazakhstan TV's version of Dragons' Den | 0:00:54 | 0:00:58 | |
there were very few takers for the automatic clothes dryer. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:01 | |
And after a breathless meeting in Paris, | 0:01:12 | 0:01:14 | |
Carla Bruni spots what happened to the raisin | 0:01:14 | 0:01:17 | |
that she accidentally spat out from her French pastry. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
There WAS something quite nice about that. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:30 | |
On my right is a comedian and writer who one reviewer described | 0:01:30 | 0:01:34 | |
as like an aged grandparent, an old, stuffy traditionalist | 0:01:34 | 0:01:38 | |
bemused and angered in equal measure by the state of modern society. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:42 | |
-And joining Ian is Miles Jupp. -LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE | 0:01:42 | 0:01:46 | |
With Paul Merton tonight is an actor and performer | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
who first came to notice | 0:01:55 | 0:01:56 | |
when performing at the Edinburgh Festival in 1976, | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
where his show faced stiff competition for audiences | 0:01:59 | 0:02:02 | |
from both the other shows that were on that year. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
-Please welcome Andy Hamilton. -APPLAUSE | 0:02:05 | 0:02:08 | |
I'm not really an actor. | 0:02:08 | 0:02:11 | |
APPLAUSE DROWNS SPEECH | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
We start with the biggest stories of the week. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:17 | |
Ian and Miles, take a look at this. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:18 | |
Oh, it's GDP! It's up 0.8%. | 0:02:18 | 0:02:21 | |
Oh, look, it's the West Wing. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:23 | |
Oh, no, it isn't. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
-Ah, a tea dance. Now, that IS reassuring. -It is. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:28 | |
And there's the leader of the Tea Dance Party. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:32 | |
Or is that Iain Duncan Smith? | 0:02:32 | 0:02:34 | |
Oh, leaders smoking. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:35 | |
Macmillan, Wilson... | 0:02:35 | 0:02:38 | |
-Erm...who's that? -LAUGHTER | 0:02:38 | 0:02:40 | |
Erm... There's a whole load of stories there. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:44 | |
Which do you want first? The good news - we're not in recession. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
The bad news - Clegg smokes. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:49 | |
Well...do you think we're in recession or not in recession? | 0:02:49 | 0:02:53 | |
Because what's been said is that this 0.8% really doesn't count | 0:02:53 | 0:02:58 | |
because it's not even a number. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:00 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:03:00 | 0:03:02 | |
I haven't really noticed the recession. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
On that side of the panel I don't suppose you have, no. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:09 | |
What, is it tough your way, is it, John?! | 0:03:09 | 0:03:13 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
It is technically very good news. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
We were 1.2% last quarter | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
and this is a stonking 0.4% decrease. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:24 | |
So, that's very good. | 0:03:24 | 0:03:26 | |
-..Yeah, yeah. -You see? | 0:03:26 | 0:03:27 | |
You can see people's unrivalled joy(!) | 0:03:27 | 0:03:30 | |
Not only have we got this huge growth rate | 0:03:30 | 0:03:34 | |
but the ratings agency have changed our rating. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:37 | |
So, Britain is no longer "basket case" | 0:03:37 | 0:03:40 | |
and we've moved up to "not as bad as Greece". | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
Which is a pretty high rating nowadays. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:48 | |
Particularly those people who've been on holiday in Greece | 0:03:48 | 0:03:51 | |
and have had to wipe their bottoms and put it in a bin. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:54 | |
That's wrong and they're above us. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:56 | |
Has anyone ever had that experience on a Greek holiday? | 0:03:56 | 0:03:59 | |
Don't go to Greece! They don't show you that bit in Mamma Mia, I tell you! | 0:03:59 | 0:04:05 | |
But how reliable are these figures? | 0:04:05 | 0:04:08 | |
It's a measure of GDP, which is manufacturing. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:11 | |
-And what's manufacturing nowadays...? -Manufacturing figures, mostly. -Right. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:17 | |
Is a TV show manu...? Is the X Factor manufacturing? | 0:04:17 | 0:04:21 | |
It's definitely manufactur-ED! | 0:04:21 | 0:04:23 | |
-But is it manufacturing? -Are you suggesting it's rigged in some way? | 0:04:23 | 0:04:27 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:04:29 | 0:04:30 | |
He's the editor of Private Eye - he doesn't get out. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:33 | |
I'm not suggesting anything, Ian. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:35 | |
-That's entirely your interpretation of... -Oh, good. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:40 | |
-All right... -Good legal out there! | 0:04:40 | 0:04:42 | |
Now it looks like, Ian, you're going to prison now! | 0:04:42 | 0:04:46 | |
You've got to come back with something now. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:48 | |
Wouldn't you love it if the editor of Private Eye was sent to prison, | 0:04:48 | 0:04:52 | |
as now you've got to be really bad to go to prison. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:55 | |
They'll put you in with murderers, and say, "What did you do?" | 0:04:55 | 0:04:58 | |
"I said something a little bit slanderous. | 0:04:58 | 0:05:01 | |
"I accused X Factor of being rigged." | 0:05:01 | 0:05:04 | |
No, I asked. It's very, very different. Um...! | 0:05:04 | 0:05:08 | |
I'll say it's rigged, if that helps. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:14 | |
-Absolutely. -OK. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:16 | |
-I'll say it's rigged as well. -Yeah. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:18 | |
That bloke in the audience, he told me he KNOWS it's rigged. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:22 | |
And not only is it rigged, it's shit! | 0:05:22 | 0:05:26 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:05:26 | 0:05:28 | |
After last week's doom and gloom, | 0:05:31 | 0:05:33 | |
the Government is trying to remain a little bit upbeat, | 0:05:33 | 0:05:36 | |
and David Cameron went to the CBI. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:40 | |
He said he wants to: | 0:05:40 | 0:05:41 | |
-Could happen. -Yeah, could happen. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:46 | |
Which means the country needs entrepreneurs and inventors in order to move on | 0:05:46 | 0:05:51 | |
with its next level of development, which, Miles, you'll appreciate. | 0:05:51 | 0:05:55 | |
Or should I say, Archie The Inventor? | 0:05:55 | 0:05:58 | |
Take a box and some yoghurt pot tops. | 0:05:58 | 0:06:00 | |
Hey, it's a car. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:03 | |
# Inventing with Archie is never a bore | 0:06:03 | 0:06:07 | |
# Come on, let's make some more | 0:06:07 | 0:06:09 | |
# Build a rocket from a squidgy bottle | 0:06:09 | 0:06:12 | |
# And stick on bits of junk | 0:06:12 | 0:06:14 | |
# Here's a crazy clip-clop puppet Dancing to the honky-tonk. # | 0:06:17 | 0:06:21 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:06:21 | 0:06:24 | |
-Great. -Don't they use that to bring people out of comas? | 0:06:27 | 0:06:30 | |
I thought being on Have I Got News For You would be a real chance to lay to rest Balamory, but... | 0:06:31 | 0:06:36 | |
I've prepared stuff about the news and everything. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:40 | |
Don't worry, we've got Andy's first porn clip coming up. | 0:06:43 | 0:06:46 | |
Yeah, it's coming back to me now. | 0:06:51 | 0:06:54 | |
What was the signs this week that despite the hard times, Cameron and Clegg have a lot in common? | 0:06:54 | 0:07:00 | |
-They've both been on Desert Island Discs... -Mmm. | 0:07:00 | 0:07:03 | |
Clegg chose lots of songs he claims he hated before the election. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
What was interesting. According to The Express their musical choices on Desert Island Discs | 0:07:06 | 0:07:12 | |
complement each other perfectly. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
The only group they agreed upon was Radiohead. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:18 | |
-That just doesn't cheer you up. -No, you're absolutely right. Radiohead! | 0:07:18 | 0:07:22 | |
Ian thinks you're referring to Lord Reith. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:26 | |
The most miserable band in the world. | 0:07:29 | 0:07:31 | |
-I've actually heard the Radiohead and they are pretty gloomy. -Are they? | 0:07:31 | 0:07:37 | |
I think in this whole situation you've got to accept it's been tactically | 0:07:37 | 0:07:42 | |
brilliantly played by Cameron. | 0:07:42 | 0:07:44 | |
-What he's doing is he's using the Lib-Dems as a human shield. -Yeah. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:49 | |
That's what you're looking at. It's not a coalition, it's a hostage situation. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:54 | |
Ah, but they both smoke, like all the leaders in the film clip. | 0:07:57 | 0:08:00 | |
It was a luxury item. He said smoking was his luxury thing would be to have some cigarettes. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:05 | |
But that's not really a luxury item. They're available in the majority if convenience stores. | 0:08:05 | 0:08:10 | |
Newsnight investigated whether we as a nation | 0:08:12 | 0:08:15 | |
accurately care the fact that Nick Clegg is a smoker. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:19 | |
-Nick Clegg smokes. -I don't know. -He does. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:22 | |
Do you care? | 0:08:22 | 0:08:23 | |
No, no, I don't care. | 0:08:23 | 0:08:25 | |
What's the question exactly? | 0:08:25 | 0:08:28 | |
Is there political significance to the fact that Nick Clegg smokes? | 0:08:28 | 0:08:32 | |
I don't understand. You speak too quickly for me. | 0:08:32 | 0:08:35 | |
-Nick Clegg smokes. -Nick Clegg smokes. Smokes! | 0:08:35 | 0:08:38 | |
Mr Clegg, he smokes. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:41 | |
-Yes, I don't know. -He does. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:43 | |
-Do you care? -No, I don't care. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:46 | |
No, I don't care. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:47 | |
Cameron's given up smoking, Clegg still smokes. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:56 | |
Gives Cameron a huge political advantage | 0:08:56 | 0:08:58 | |
because sooner or later, there'll be a Cabinet meeting | 0:08:58 | 0:09:01 | |
and Clegg'll be dying to nip out for a fag... | 0:09:01 | 0:09:04 | |
He'll come back and Cameron will have abolished income tax | 0:09:04 | 0:09:09 | |
and brought back hanging. | 0:09:09 | 0:09:11 | |
Why did Iain Duncan Smith annoy some people this week? | 0:09:13 | 0:09:17 | |
He said you should get on a bus and go and look for work | 0:09:17 | 0:09:20 | |
which has echoes of what Norman Tebbit said. | 0:09:20 | 0:09:23 | |
If you get on a bus you do often see adverts for jobs | 0:09:23 | 0:09:27 | |
but they're normally to drive a bus. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:29 | |
So it's a very narrow field of work he's suggesting people go for. | 0:09:30 | 0:09:33 | |
Tebbit said get on a bike and look for work. | 0:09:33 | 0:09:37 | |
He's saying get on a bus which suggests the subtext is either, | 0:09:37 | 0:09:40 | |
public transport has increased in terms of quality since Tebbit was saying that | 0:09:40 | 0:09:45 | |
or it's a tacit acknowledgement that there aren't enough cycle lanes for job seekers. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:50 | |
What he said was - | 0:09:54 | 0:09:55 | |
He does have an impressive knowledge of the times and distances of the bus service | 0:10:06 | 0:10:10 | |
in the South Wales area for which he deserves more credit than we're giving him. | 0:10:10 | 0:10:14 | |
Peter Mandelson is back in the news. Does anyone know why? | 0:10:14 | 0:10:17 | |
Is it his film? A film about him. It's called The Real Prime Minister. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:21 | |
-Was he the real Prime Minister? -That's the humble title of the film. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:24 | |
You know the radio presenter Stuart Maconie? He told me this fantastic story. | 0:10:24 | 0:10:29 | |
He met Mandelson. They were chatting away and Mandelson said, | 0:10:29 | 0:10:33 | |
"Oh, my media image is a bit absurd. | 0:10:33 | 0:10:36 | |
"Me as this great Prince of Darkness they call me. | 0:10:36 | 0:10:39 | |
"This Machiavellian figure. It's ridiculous." | 0:10:39 | 0:10:42 | |
He said that Mandelson's phone rang. And he, "Excuse me a moment." | 0:10:42 | 0:10:46 | |
He turned away and heard Mandelson say, | 0:10:46 | 0:10:48 | |
"This must be suppressed." | 0:10:48 | 0:10:50 | |
Cherie Blair's back in the news. Does anyone know why? | 0:10:55 | 0:10:58 | |
It's because she appeared in Private Eye. She was caught | 0:10:58 | 0:11:02 | |
selling Tony Blair's signature on eBay. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:05 | |
Oh, no! Really? | 0:11:05 | 0:11:07 | |
It's all a misunderstanding and she wasn't doing it to make money. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:10 | |
She was doing it to stop people cashing in on Tony Blair... | 0:11:10 | 0:11:14 | |
cos that's her job. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:16 | |
She's also been selling lots of Tony's stuff, | 0:11:16 | 0:11:19 | |
which in most relationships would be a bad sign I think. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:24 | |
On eBay she posted | 0:11:24 | 0:11:27 | |
a watch that Berlusconi gave to Tony Blair. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:31 | |
Can you imagine how tasteful a watch that Berlusconi had...? | 0:11:31 | 0:11:35 | |
Hands that grope the numbers as they go round. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:39 | |
You never could quite see what the second hand is doing. | 0:11:39 | 0:11:42 | |
Tells you the time that Berlusconi should be doing. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:48 | |
It's the continuing fallout from the Spending Review. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:52 | |
The Government has announced that pensions will rise to £140 a week, | 0:11:52 | 0:11:57 | |
which means in years to come, retired people will have a bit more money | 0:11:57 | 0:12:01 | |
to pay off their student loans. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:02 | |
To raise money, | 0:12:05 | 0:12:06 | |
David Cameron is planning to convert Number 10's gift shop into a public business, | 0:12:06 | 0:12:11 | |
with such merchandise and items as... | 0:12:11 | 0:12:13 | |
..or the Nick Clegg as it's known. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:17 | |
Paul and Andy, here's yours. | 0:12:19 | 0:12:20 | |
Oh, right, it's a submarine. | 0:12:20 | 0:12:23 | |
There's the... Oh, er... | 0:12:23 | 0:12:24 | |
This is the ancient spell of how to get the submarine | 0:12:24 | 0:12:27 | |
off the bottom of the sea. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:28 | |
-World Hernia Championships. -Yep. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:32 | |
So this is the submarine, which hit the sandbank | 0:12:32 | 0:12:35 | |
and is now up and about... Well, not up and about, | 0:12:35 | 0:12:37 | |
but is now sailing safely through the rest of the sea, having got off the sandbank. | 0:12:37 | 0:12:41 | |
It was near Scotland, so you've got Scottish people. | 0:12:41 | 0:12:44 | |
Our question was quicker than theirs! | 0:12:44 | 0:12:46 | |
The important thing about that submarine is that it's new, | 0:12:47 | 0:12:51 | |
-it's a stealth submarine. -That's right. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:53 | |
Nobody is supposed to know... | 0:12:53 | 0:12:55 | |
where it is. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:58 | |
Well, the captain's supposed to know where it is, isn't he? Ideally. | 0:12:58 | 0:13:02 | |
But other than that, nobody else. | 0:13:02 | 0:13:03 | |
It is true that it's apparently got these rubberised tiles, | 0:13:03 | 0:13:07 | |
so that it makes it a stealth submarine. | 0:13:07 | 0:13:09 | |
Can anyone spot...? | 0:13:09 | 0:13:10 | |
It is one of those special submarines. | 0:13:10 | 0:13:12 | |
It doesn't need to be in water, it can go as far as Wolverhampton, can't it? | 0:13:12 | 0:13:17 | |
It is quite amusing that it's called HMS Astute. | 0:13:17 | 0:13:20 | |
Who is naming our warships these days? | 0:13:22 | 0:13:24 | |
So you decide you'll name them after adjectives, fair enough. | 0:13:24 | 0:13:28 | |
-So you go for HMS Intrepid, or HMS... -HMS Obsolete! | 0:13:28 | 0:13:31 | |
HMS Astute and its sister-ship HMS Shrewd. | 0:13:33 | 0:13:38 | |
-HMS Canny. -HMS Coquettish. -Yeah. | 0:13:39 | 0:13:43 | |
And HMS Aground. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:46 | |
-There have been various theories as to why it's run aground. -Too new. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:53 | |
It was too new, the controls were still swathed in bubble wrap. | 0:13:53 | 0:13:56 | |
The water was too shallow, wasn't it? | 0:13:57 | 0:14:00 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:14:00 | 0:14:03 | |
I think. I think. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:04 | |
-Factually correct, to be fair. -Sandbanks move, don't they? | 0:14:04 | 0:14:08 | |
-They sort of move in the tide, so maybe they didn't have up-to-date maps. -Apparently, yeah. | 0:14:08 | 0:14:12 | |
The maps said, "Here be dragons." | 0:14:12 | 0:14:14 | |
Apparently The Mail said it was to do with the fact that they were using old charts. | 0:14:14 | 0:14:20 | |
I mean, I know there's been spending cuts, but you'd think... | 0:14:20 | 0:14:24 | |
You could have got a Tom Tom really. | 0:14:24 | 0:14:26 | |
-How on earth can you use old charts? -Imagine how irritating a sat-nav in that submarine would have been. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:31 | |
"You are on a sandbank." | 0:14:31 | 0:14:34 | |
But one of the tabloids | 0:14:36 | 0:14:37 | |
actually tracked down an expert on submarine design... | 0:14:37 | 0:14:43 | |
Thanks, Prof(!) | 0:14:52 | 0:14:54 | |
But there is a feature of this particular submarine's design that's quite unique. | 0:14:54 | 0:14:58 | |
Does anyone know what it is? | 0:14:58 | 0:15:00 | |
-Wheels? -No. | 0:15:00 | 0:15:01 | |
Wey-hey! I can see the inventor in you! | 0:15:01 | 0:15:05 | |
-It doesn't have a periscope. -Exactly. | 0:15:11 | 0:15:13 | |
That's a pretty useless sub, isn't it? | 0:15:13 | 0:15:16 | |
What do they do all day, if they can't say, "Up periscope?" | 0:15:16 | 0:15:19 | |
But it also might explain why it ran into a sandbank. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:24 | |
So it's been a week of military incompetence, | 0:15:25 | 0:15:28 | |
culminating in the British nuclear submarine HMS Astute | 0:15:28 | 0:15:31 | |
running aground just off a Scottish island. | 0:15:31 | 0:15:34 | |
HMS Astute is designed to be at sea ten months of the year | 0:15:34 | 0:15:38 | |
and is kitted out accordingly. | 0:15:38 | 0:15:40 | |
According to The Daily Mirror - | 0:15:40 | 0:15:41 | |
At least for a couple of weeks, that's true. | 0:15:48 | 0:15:50 | |
Meanwhile, the Afghan President has admitted receiving bags of cash from the other rogue nuclear state, Iran. | 0:15:51 | 0:15:58 | |
It's now emerged that last year | 0:15:58 | 0:16:00 | |
the Iranian Ambassador gave President Karzai a gift of £600,000 in cash, | 0:16:00 | 0:16:05 | |
whilst, not wanting to be outdone, | 0:16:05 | 0:16:07 | |
the British Ambassador gave him a family-sized box of Ferrero Rocher. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:11 | |
And so to Round Two, the picture-spin quiz. | 0:16:11 | 0:16:15 | |
Buzz in when you know the story. | 0:16:15 | 0:16:17 | |
BELL RINGS | 0:16:22 | 0:16:24 | |
The Crown Estates own a lot of the coastal waters | 0:16:24 | 0:16:26 | |
and they're getting a big grant to put wind farms in them, | 0:16:26 | 0:16:30 | |
so the Royal Family are becoming richer as part of the Comprehensive Spending Review. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:35 | |
You may like that or not. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:37 | |
It's a touch unfair in the circumstances, | 0:16:37 | 0:16:40 | |
but tough. | 0:16:40 | 0:16:41 | |
How mental is that? | 0:16:41 | 0:16:43 | |
-The Crown Estate owns all of the seabed... -The Royal Family?! | 0:16:43 | 0:16:46 | |
Owning parts of Britain?! | 0:16:46 | 0:16:48 | |
Now the sea as well. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:50 | |
How long has this been going on for? | 0:16:50 | 0:16:52 | |
ANDY: I think Charles has put her up there, on that photo. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:56 | |
He's getting desperate. | 0:16:56 | 0:16:58 | |
He said, "You're not coming down till you abdicate." | 0:16:58 | 0:17:01 | |
MILES: He hates wind farms, doesn't he? Charles. He thinks they're a blot on the landscape. | 0:17:02 | 0:17:07 | |
The royals are, ironically, going to profit from things that stand there not doing a great deal. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:11 | |
So wind farm and... | 0:17:11 | 0:17:12 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:17:12 | 0:17:14 | |
For the purposes of compliance, we should tell the viewers that that is a trick photo. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:18 | |
She's actually on the one at the back. | 0:17:18 | 0:17:20 | |
Apart from Prince Charles, who is a big fan of wind? | 0:17:22 | 0:17:25 | |
Is it Prince Charles? | 0:17:25 | 0:17:27 | |
-I said apart from him. -Oh well. -I would hazard a guess it's not him. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:32 | |
Sorry, I find it very difficult to know what you're saying if it's not on the auto cue. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:37 | |
LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE | 0:17:37 | 0:17:39 | |
That's completely unfair. You have a beautiful voice. | 0:17:44 | 0:17:47 | |
I know what I sound like. I'm all right, I can live with it. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:50 | |
I've heard my own answer machine and thought "Who's that knob head?" | 0:17:50 | 0:17:53 | |
Well, it's David Cameron. He's said: | 0:17:53 | 0:17:57 | |
Which is apparently his name for Eric Pickles. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:05 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:18:05 | 0:18:06 | |
Fingers on buzzers, teams. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:10 | |
BELL | 0:18:13 | 0:18:14 | |
MILES: It's about 0.8 of an octopus. | 0:18:14 | 0:18:18 | |
I don't know if you're a numbers man. | 0:18:18 | 0:18:20 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:18:20 | 0:18:22 | |
That is... | 0:18:22 | 0:18:23 | |
-He was called Paul, well, he still is... -He's called the late Paul. | 0:18:23 | 0:18:27 | |
He had incredible foresight. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:30 | |
Even by the standards of an octopus. And... | 0:18:30 | 0:18:35 | |
He was offered two boxes of mussels, and each one had a country's national flag on it. | 0:18:36 | 0:18:42 | |
And he chose seven consecutive German results. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:44 | |
MILES: And now he's got one wrong and he's been killed. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:47 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:18:47 | 0:18:49 | |
You know what them Germans are like. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:51 | |
There is somebody who found him a little bit offensive, to say the least. | 0:18:56 | 0:19:01 | |
-Oh, yes! Mahmoud Ahmadinejad... -Yeah. | 0:19:01 | 0:19:04 | |
..got really cross with an octopus! | 0:19:04 | 0:19:07 | |
He did, he said the revelations that the octopus was predicting matches showed, | 0:19:07 | 0:19:11 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:19:14 | 0:19:18 | |
ANDY: But do you know, in a way, he's right. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:20 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:19:20 | 0:19:22 | |
I'm now going to cheer everyone up. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:24 | |
Across the pond has been the traditional, | 0:19:24 | 0:19:26 | |
annual, dog dressing up for Halloween costume parade. | 0:19:26 | 0:19:31 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:19:31 | 0:19:34 | |
I'm confused, which one's the pet? | 0:19:36 | 0:19:39 | |
Is it the crocodile with a dog shoved in its mouth? | 0:19:39 | 0:19:43 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:19:43 | 0:19:46 | |
I must say, I find that amusing. | 0:19:48 | 0:19:49 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:19:49 | 0:19:52 | |
That's become the product of an ill mind now, hasn't it? | 0:19:55 | 0:19:59 | |
Time now for the odd one out round. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:02 | |
Christine O'Donnell. | 0:20:02 | 0:20:03 | |
Paul Daniels. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:04 | |
Fiona Robertson from the tourist attraction Wookey Hole. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:08 | |
And Tulisa from N-Dubz. | 0:20:08 | 0:20:10 | |
BUZZER | 0:20:10 | 0:20:11 | |
Christine O'Donnell, she's part of the Tea Party movement in America. | 0:20:11 | 0:20:15 | |
She's claimed on some TV station about 20 years ago that she was part of a...she wasn't actually a witch, | 0:20:15 | 0:20:20 | |
but she knew people involved in witchcraft. That made me think it must be about witchcraft. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:24 | |
She is playing a witch, | 0:20:24 | 0:20:26 | |
because in Wookey Hole they have an actress pretending to be a witch, | 0:20:26 | 0:20:30 | |
because a witch supposedly lived in Wookey Hole. | 0:20:30 | 0:20:33 | |
And N-Dubz are a very well known London grime band. | 0:20:33 | 0:20:38 | |
LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE | 0:20:38 | 0:20:40 | |
HE MOUTHS | 0:20:41 | 0:20:43 | |
Who told you that? | 0:20:45 | 0:20:47 | |
I think there may be some suggestion of witchcraft there. | 0:20:47 | 0:20:51 | |
So we're going for Christine O'Donnell because she's denying being a witch. | 0:20:51 | 0:20:56 | |
-Paul Daniels has claimed he's a witch? -Yeah. | 0:20:56 | 0:20:58 | |
OK, the logic's breaking down here. | 0:20:59 | 0:21:01 | |
-Tell us, Miles, please. -Maybe Paul Daniels... | 0:21:03 | 0:21:05 | |
-Why? -He hasn't claimed he's a witch, he's claimed he's a magician. | 0:21:05 | 0:21:09 | |
-That should be the right answer. -It is. | 0:21:09 | 0:21:12 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:21:12 | 0:21:14 | |
It is true, Paul Daniels has never claimed he was a witch, | 0:21:17 | 0:21:20 | |
although in the 80s, he was famous for a spell. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:24 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:21:24 | 0:21:25 | |
The Republican candidate, Christine O'Donnell, in a video that emerged from her past, said, | 0:21:25 | 0:21:29 | |
I think we've all had dates like that. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:41 | |
How did she distance herself from this quote? | 0:21:42 | 0:21:45 | |
-She did an advert that began with the words, "I am not a witch." -Spot on. | 0:21:45 | 0:21:50 | |
I'm not a witch. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:51 | |
I'm nothing you've heard. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:54 | |
I'm you. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:57 | |
Is that the most crazy political broadcast you've ever seen? | 0:21:57 | 0:22:01 | |
You've got to feel sorry for Obama. | 0:22:01 | 0:22:03 | |
How do you govern a country that seems to decide that facts are the work of the devil? | 0:22:03 | 0:22:09 | |
What's their definition, the Tea Party, the Republican Tea Party | 0:22:09 | 0:22:13 | |
as opposed to the main Republican Party? | 0:22:13 | 0:22:16 | |
Well, the Republican Party is very, very right wing. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:19 | |
And the Tea Party are mad. | 0:22:19 | 0:22:21 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:22:21 | 0:22:22 | |
If you talk to Tea Party supporters, they all believe different things. The only thing they believe | 0:22:23 | 0:22:28 | |
is that they're claiming America back. | 0:22:28 | 0:22:31 | |
-But they don't know who from. -No. | 0:22:31 | 0:22:32 | |
-From the voices in their head. -Yeah. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:35 | |
She has a lot of crazy opinions. | 0:22:35 | 0:22:37 | |
These groups admitted that the report that said, "Hey, yay, we cloned a monkey," | 0:22:37 | 0:22:42 | |
now are using this to start cloning humans. | 0:22:42 | 0:22:45 | |
Let them admit anything they want, they wont do that here in the United States | 0:22:45 | 0:22:49 | |
unless all craziness is gone. | 0:22:49 | 0:22:51 | |
They are doing that here in the United States. | 0:22:51 | 0:22:53 | |
American scientific companies are crossbreeding humans and animals | 0:22:53 | 0:22:59 | |
and coming up with mice with fully functioning human brains. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:04 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:23:04 | 0:23:06 | |
And I want their votes! LAUGHTER | 0:23:06 | 0:23:10 | |
I say, any chance of letting me out of this cage? | 0:23:10 | 0:23:12 | |
-Must it be cheese every Tuesday? -LAUGHTER | 0:23:12 | 0:23:16 | |
I'm voting Democrat, myself. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:20 | |
-But then I have got a human brain. -LAUGHTER | 0:23:20 | 0:23:25 | |
So the N-Dubz singer Tulisa has also said | 0:23:25 | 0:23:27 | |
she's dealt with witchcraft. You know N-Dubz? No... | 0:23:27 | 0:23:32 | |
No, no, very keen. | 0:23:32 | 0:23:35 | |
-Are you an N-Dubz fan? Name an N-Dubz track. -Well... | 0:23:35 | 0:23:39 | |
Let's All Get Sex Up That Bitch? LAUGHTER | 0:23:39 | 0:23:44 | |
To be fair, that was the Cruft's national theme tune | 0:23:45 | 0:23:50 | |
for quite some time. | 0:23:50 | 0:23:52 | |
You've probably not heard of that one, it's a B side. | 0:23:52 | 0:23:55 | |
-Can you sing it for us? -Yeah, let's have a tune. | 0:23:56 | 0:23:59 | |
# Oh, let's all... | 0:24:00 | 0:24:03 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:24:03 | 0:24:04 | |
# Oh, let's all get sex up that bitch... | 0:24:04 | 0:24:07 | |
# She's a slag... # I don't know, it sort of goes round and round. | 0:24:07 | 0:24:11 | |
Did you sing that to the tune of a hymn? | 0:24:11 | 0:24:14 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:24:14 | 0:24:17 | |
You're going to hell. | 0:24:17 | 0:24:20 | |
The other person in the picture was Fiona Robertson, | 0:24:20 | 0:24:23 | |
the witch from Wooky Hole. | 0:24:23 | 0:24:25 | |
She actually skived off work and when she said she was actually ill | 0:24:25 | 0:24:31 | |
she turned up on X Factor dressed as a witch. | 0:24:31 | 0:24:35 | |
After her appearance, the Wooky Hole Witch revealed... | 0:24:37 | 0:24:40 | |
Coincidence? Yeah. | 0:24:46 | 0:24:49 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:24:49 | 0:24:50 | |
And now the Missing Word round, | 0:24:50 | 0:24:52 | |
which this week features the guest publication... | 0:24:52 | 0:24:55 | |
The award winning magazine celebrating Lancashire and Yorkshire | 0:24:56 | 0:25:01 | |
and all their brilliant fights. | 0:25:01 | 0:25:04 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:25:04 | 0:25:06 | |
We start with... | 0:25:06 | 0:25:08 | |
Lancashire! The North. Warrington, Wigan. I'm going to do all the northern towns. | 0:25:08 | 0:25:13 | |
You're getting close. It is a place in the North. | 0:25:13 | 0:25:16 | |
Islington! | 0:25:16 | 0:25:17 | |
Carlisle. LAUGHTER | 0:25:17 | 0:25:20 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:25:20 | 0:25:23 | |
For those living inside the M25, that's really funny. | 0:25:23 | 0:25:26 | |
Outside the M25, he may as well have said Narnia. | 0:25:26 | 0:25:30 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:25:30 | 0:25:31 | |
It's actually... | 0:25:31 | 0:25:33 | |
Among the wonders of the Yorkshire town of Skipton is a shop that sells | 0:25:34 | 0:25:39 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:25:39 | 0:25:42 | |
Next, what... Says Woman Declared Dead? | 0:25:42 | 0:25:47 | |
-I demand a second opinion! -LAUGHTER | 0:25:47 | 0:25:51 | |
Surprise! | 0:25:51 | 0:25:52 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:25:52 | 0:25:55 | |
-She said, "I've had a nice sleep." -That's exactly it. | 0:25:55 | 0:25:58 | |
The Daily Telegraph described the confusion. | 0:26:02 | 0:26:04 | |
As he removed several items from eBay. | 0:26:08 | 0:26:12 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:26:12 | 0:26:14 | |
Uncle concerned about his girds told to what? | 0:26:14 | 0:26:18 | |
-Stop making up words that don't exist. -LAUGHTER | 0:26:18 | 0:26:21 | |
Just make up words. Uncle concerned about his girds told to nebber a nobber a noober. | 0:26:21 | 0:26:26 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:26:26 | 0:26:29 | |
It's the month. | 0:26:29 | 0:26:32 | |

Is this from the Northern Magazine? | 0:26:45 | 0:26:47 | |
It is from the Northern Magazine. | 0:26:47 | 0:26:49 | |
Men with lots of what are not as sexy? | 0:26:52 | 0:26:55 | |
Er, testicles. | 0:26:55 | 0:26:57 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:26:57 | 0:26:59 | |
I don't know why I said that, it was a strange image that popped into my head. | 0:26:59 | 0:27:03 | |
It was better out than in, to coin a phrase. | 0:27:03 | 0:27:07 | |
-Whippets. -It's a football story. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:10 | |
It's actually "sisters". This is a study | 0:27:10 | 0:27:13 | |
that found that male rats with more sisters attracted fewer mates. | 0:27:13 | 0:27:17 | |
The study was carried out by... | 0:27:17 | 0:27:19 | |
He's got a PhD in watching rats shag. | 0:27:23 | 0:27:28 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:27:28 | 0:27:29 | |
And so to the final scores, which are... | 0:27:29 | 0:27:31 | |
Paul and Andy have five, but Ian and Miles win cos they've scored six. | 0:27:31 | 0:27:36 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:27:36 | 0:27:39 | |
