0:00:02 > 0:00:09This programme contains some strong language.

0:00:37 > 0:00:39Good evening. Welcome to Have I Got News For You.

0:00:39 > 0:00:43I'm the woman...

0:00:43 > 0:00:47In the news this week, with the channel set to close down

0:00:47 > 0:00:49BBC Three's top creative team finds a new outlet

0:00:49 > 0:00:51for all their latest ideas.

0:00:57 > 0:01:00A Newsnight Special exposes the appalling sweatshop conditions

0:01:00 > 0:01:03for workers in a Taiwanese Walnut Whip factory.

0:01:14 > 0:01:17And as the government launches new regional TV stations,

0:01:17 > 0:01:20Good Morning Medway sends its top reporter to investigate

0:01:20 > 0:01:23the need for a safer footpath.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37On Ian's team tonight is the Shadow Justice Secretary

0:01:37 > 0:01:41and former human rights lawyer who spent years tirelessly working

0:01:41 > 0:01:43on behalf of the weak and powerless, which came in handy

0:01:43 > 0:01:45when he was campaign manager for Ed Miliband.

0:01:45 > 0:01:48Please welcome Sadiq Khan MP.

0:01:53 > 0:01:56And with Paul tonight is a TV presenter who,

0:01:56 > 0:01:58when he was younger, wanted to be a policeman.

0:01:58 > 0:02:01He'd spend hours dressed in a uniform, walking around the house

0:02:01 > 0:02:03shredding documents and lying to everyone.

0:02:03 > 0:02:06- Please welcome Richard Osman.- Hiya.

0:02:11 > 0:02:13And we start with the biggest stories of the week.

0:02:13 > 0:02:15Ian and Sadiq, take a look at this.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17It's a postman.

0:02:17 > 0:02:20There's Vince Cable, who sold out.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22And that's the price going up and up.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24That's some people taking the piss.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29This is the story, Jennifer, of...

0:02:29 > 0:02:32- That's very good, you've remembered her name.- Yes, Jennifer.

0:02:32 > 0:02:34- That's me. - Actually, when's David turning up?

0:02:34 > 0:02:36I was told this was Question Time.

0:02:36 > 0:02:42In my briefing, it said there would be a BBC legend in the chair.

0:02:42 > 0:02:43RICHARD: Hello?!

0:02:45 > 0:02:47Get back to the story, please.

0:02:47 > 0:02:51The government was warned that you shouldn't sell off Royal Mail,

0:02:51 > 0:02:54and if you do, sell it off at a fair price.

0:02:54 > 0:02:57And rather than selling off the shares at £5.60 or £5.70,

0:02:57 > 0:02:58as they should have done,

0:02:58 > 0:03:01they sold them off at a knock-down, bargain-basement price.

0:03:01 > 0:03:06As a consequence, you, us, the taxpayers, have lost £2.4 billion.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09They appointed one merchant bank to do the sell-off

0:03:09 > 0:03:12and that merchant bank chose another seven merchant banks, who all said,

0:03:12 > 0:03:14"Yes, we'll do this one."

0:03:14 > 0:03:19And, in the end, all the banks, between them, came to the conclusion

0:03:19 > 0:03:21that it should be sold off for £3.30.

0:03:21 > 0:03:24It was immediately worth five quid.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26Guess who bought a lot of the shares. Was it the banks?!

0:03:26 > 0:03:28The same banks.

0:03:28 > 0:03:3370% were given to these banks rather than to us to buy or the employees.

0:03:33 > 0:03:36And they've made a whopping fortune at our expense.

0:03:36 > 0:03:37And it is disgraceful!

0:03:37 > 0:03:40- It's disgraceful. - And Vince Cable and David Cameron

0:03:40 > 0:03:42and George Osborne should be ashamed.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44OK, well done. Well summed up.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49I was hoping you were going to say "hung" at the end, there.

0:03:49 > 0:03:52- No...- Ashamed? They're not going to be ashamed.

0:03:52 > 0:03:55RICHARD: Why is the Royal Mail worth so much money, though?

0:03:55 > 0:03:56I don't really understand it.

0:03:56 > 0:03:58Perhaps it's because e-mail didn't really catch on.

0:04:02 > 0:04:03As you've already pointed out,

0:04:03 > 0:04:06Vince arranged for 16 priority investors,

0:04:06 > 0:04:09who were offered extra shares as an incentive

0:04:09 > 0:04:11to stay on as long-term investors.

0:04:11 > 0:04:13And what measures did he put in place to stop them

0:04:13 > 0:04:17selling the shares straightaway and stop them making a massive profit?

0:04:17 > 0:04:18- You've already said it. - Absolutely nothing.

0:04:18 > 0:04:20A gentleman's agreement...

0:04:20 > 0:04:22not to sell the shares.

0:04:22 > 0:04:24But Vince Cable insists he wasn't conned

0:04:24 > 0:04:26and it was a very good deal for the taxpayer

0:04:26 > 0:04:29and, what's more, he's just inherited a million pounds

0:04:29 > 0:04:31from a relative in Nigeria!

0:04:32 > 0:04:35What are the chances of that?!

0:04:35 > 0:04:38Who specifically benefited from the sell-off?

0:04:38 > 0:04:40- Edith Clarke.- That's a good one.

0:04:40 > 0:04:41No, it's not Edith.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43- Not Edith?!- Elaine Jenkins.

0:04:43 > 0:04:45- Not Elaine.- If Edith's not involved, Elaine won't go near it.

0:04:48 > 0:04:51One of the world's biggest hedge funds made 36 million

0:04:51 > 0:04:53on the share deal - Lansdowne Partners,

0:04:53 > 0:04:57where a Mr Peter Davies is on the management committee,

0:04:57 > 0:05:01who was also George Osborne's best man!

0:05:01 > 0:05:02No(!)

0:05:03 > 0:05:06It's a small world, isn't it(?)

0:05:06 > 0:05:10Now, Sadiq, you voted in parliament

0:05:10 > 0:05:12to close a lot of post offices, didn't you?

0:05:13 > 0:05:15Yeah.

0:05:17 > 0:05:20What was happening, Jennifer, was people discovered this thing

0:05:20 > 0:05:24that Richard was talking about called the World Wide Web and e-mail,

0:05:24 > 0:05:27- and they were using stamps less, so we tried...- Yeah...

0:05:27 > 0:05:29Those post offices that were not used as much...

0:05:29 > 0:05:32- Keep going.- ..closed down,

0:05:32 > 0:05:34but keep open those ones that were being used

0:05:34 > 0:05:37- and give them more business... - (For hardworking people.)

0:05:37 > 0:05:39- RICHARD: You're not having that, are you?- Nah!

0:05:39 > 0:05:42- SADIQ: Can we edit THAT, by the way? - I only said it to wind him up.

0:05:42 > 0:05:46- I'm not actually interested in the answer.- Good, Jennifer.

0:05:48 > 0:05:51Can you name me another Conservative politician

0:05:51 > 0:05:53who's made a few quid recently?

0:05:53 > 0:05:55- BELL RINGS - Tony Blair.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57- You don't have to buzz! - Maria Miller!

0:05:57 > 0:05:59Yes!

0:05:59 > 0:06:00You've got it! Tell me about her.

0:06:00 > 0:06:02She was somebody who claimed for a second home

0:06:02 > 0:06:05- when she probably shouldn't have.- Yes.

0:06:05 > 0:06:06What do you mean "probably"?

0:06:06 > 0:06:08She's on the other side!

0:06:08 > 0:06:11She was in a little bit of trouble, Maria Miller, for claiming

0:06:11 > 0:06:14£90,000 expenses on a second home which she then sold for

0:06:14 > 0:06:17a million pounds profit. What's so bad about that?

0:06:17 > 0:06:18Don't understand.

0:06:18 > 0:06:21She was claiming mortgage interest payments,

0:06:21 > 0:06:25but when the interest rate dropped, she kept claiming at the same rate.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27He parents were living in it...

0:06:27 > 0:06:29and she still claimed it was a second home,

0:06:29 > 0:06:31even though her parents were in it.

0:06:31 > 0:06:35But I now have to say, The Commons Standards Committee

0:06:35 > 0:06:40have ordered her to repay £5,800 and apologise to MPs.

0:06:40 > 0:06:45They also said her attitude breached MPs' code of conduct.

0:06:47 > 0:06:49That must be going some.

0:06:49 > 0:06:51Her attitude.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54Well, her attitude was not to answer the question.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56And when it was said, you know,

0:06:56 > 0:06:59"Can you turn up the financial details?", she prevaricated,

0:06:59 > 0:07:02avoided the question and refused to answer directly.

0:07:02 > 0:07:04This is the Culture Secretary,

0:07:04 > 0:07:07- who's going to tell the press how to behave.- Yes.- Oh, yes!

0:07:09 > 0:07:12So, yes, this is Vince Cable who, when selling the Royal Mail,

0:07:12 > 0:07:15undervalued it by around two billion pounds!

0:07:15 > 0:07:18In the run up to the sell-off, the government released its

0:07:18 > 0:07:20Royal Mail Myth-busters factsheet

0:07:20 > 0:07:22which helpfully reassured people...

0:07:27 > 0:07:29Although, according to the recently released

0:07:29 > 0:07:32Royal Mail Myth-busters Factsheet Myth-busters factsheet,

0:07:32 > 0:07:33that's bollocks.

0:07:36 > 0:07:39Paul and Richard, take a look at this.

0:07:39 > 0:07:42Vegetables. We need to eat more greens. Oh, look at him.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45I'm not sure who's eating who there.

0:07:45 > 0:07:47Vegetables are very good for you.

0:07:47 > 0:07:50You must have seven vegetables a day, rather than five.

0:07:50 > 0:07:52Although, it's a struggle for most.

0:07:52 > 0:07:54I don't understand who was eating five portions a day,

0:07:54 > 0:07:56- how's anyone got time to eat seven? - I know.

0:07:56 > 0:07:58Broccoli! How long does broccoli take to eat.

0:07:58 > 0:08:00Exactly.

0:08:00 > 0:08:02It's better if you cook it.

0:08:02 > 0:08:07That man...that you just showed, that was me.

0:08:07 > 0:08:08Erm...

0:08:08 > 0:08:11As you can tell from my fantastic physique,

0:08:11 > 0:08:14- I've been training for the marathon this year.- Oh.

0:08:14 > 0:08:16It's Snickers now. Come on.

0:08:16 > 0:08:19- OK.- I'm now doing five a day.

0:08:19 > 0:08:21- Are you?- Yeah, miles.

0:08:21 > 0:08:23- Hmm.- And fruit as well.

0:08:23 > 0:08:26I was really offended by the joke about...

0:08:26 > 0:08:28Eric Pickles that you retweeted.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33Which joke was that?

0:08:33 > 0:08:36Can I just say, no person should ever have to apologise to Eric Pickles

0:08:36 > 0:08:39more than once in their lifetime, so I'm not talking about it.

0:08:39 > 0:08:43- Right. OK, I will then. Erm... - LAUGHTER

0:08:43 > 0:08:46Because he's running the marathon, his good friend Neil Kinnock sent

0:08:46 > 0:08:48you a personal tweet, didn't he?

0:08:48 > 0:08:51Saying, "I hope you take Eric Pickles along

0:08:51 > 0:08:55- "and then we'll have a by-election." - AUDIENCE: Ooh!

0:08:55 > 0:08:57I know. It's sick, isn't it?

0:08:57 > 0:09:02- Eric, if you're watching, I apologise again.- Oh, well done, sir.

0:09:02 > 0:09:04And put the remote control down.

0:09:04 > 0:09:07Just walk to the telly and come back. Put it down. Start now!

0:09:09 > 0:09:10Big fatty.

0:09:10 > 0:09:13So during the study at University College London,

0:09:13 > 0:09:16what happened to people who ate at least seven portions

0:09:16 > 0:09:21- of fruit and vegetables a day for 12 years?- They didn't die.- Yes.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24The people who were made to eat seven portions

0:09:24 > 0:09:26of fruit and vegetables were 42% less likely to die,

0:09:26 > 0:09:28no matter how much they wanted to.

0:09:31 > 0:09:35What's the Australian government's advice regarding fruit and veg?

0:09:35 > 0:09:37- AUSSIE ACCENT:- Ah, eat what you like.

0:09:39 > 0:09:42We're great at cricket. Don't matter.

0:09:42 > 0:09:46They recommend eating two portions of fruit and FIVE of vegetables.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49Netherlands say two portions twice a day,

0:09:49 > 0:09:51which actually, Netherlands, is four.

0:09:54 > 0:09:58- That's like...- This has turned into the Eurovision Song Contest.

0:09:58 > 0:10:02Some experts have suggested that we eat ten portions a day.

0:10:02 > 0:10:05How have readers of the Daily Telegraph

0:10:05 > 0:10:08- been reacting to that news? - Calmly.

0:10:08 > 0:10:11They don't seen too enthusiastic.

0:10:11 > 0:10:12Keith Moore of Suffolk writes...

0:10:20 > 0:10:23That's the spirit, Keith.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26That's brilliant. A bit of realism.

0:10:26 > 0:10:31Meanwhile, what does George Osborne do for just two days a week?

0:10:32 > 0:10:35- Chancellor.- Take elocution lessons.

0:10:35 > 0:10:38He's on this diet that everyone's on.

0:10:38 > 0:10:42You eat for five days, and then for two days you

0:10:42 > 0:10:44legislate to stop other people eating.

0:10:46 > 0:10:49You fast for two days and it does, in fact, seem to be working.

0:10:49 > 0:10:50There he is.

0:10:50 > 0:10:53Meanwhile, Eric Pickles went on a no chips, no cheese diet

0:10:53 > 0:10:56a couple of years ago. Here he is before...

0:10:57 > 0:10:59..and here's what he looked like after.

0:10:59 > 0:11:02LAUGHTER

0:11:02 > 0:11:05He's got the menu with him.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07APPLAUSE

0:11:08 > 0:11:12Meanwhile, a study in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition

0:11:12 > 0:11:14suggests that the best way to lose weight

0:11:14 > 0:11:16is to eat like our ancient cavemen ancestors,

0:11:16 > 0:11:20a story which the Telegraph chose to illustrate with this.

0:11:24 > 0:11:28Yes, it's a picture of Raquel Welch in One Million Years BC,

0:11:28 > 0:11:32giving Telegraph readers two of their five melons a day.

0:11:34 > 0:11:37So, Ian and Sadiq, here's another for you.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39- Future Prime Minister.- Where?

0:11:42 > 0:11:43Oh, her? Yeah.

0:11:46 > 0:11:48Well, this is Ed Miliband advertising for a media person,

0:11:48 > 0:11:51which is what politicians sometimes do.

0:11:51 > 0:11:55But his critics... I'm just being devil's advocate here...

0:11:56 > 0:11:59..are saying he's a bit desperate, advertising for someone to

0:11:59 > 0:12:02help with his broadcasting image now.

0:12:02 > 0:12:06I think he doesn't need somebody to help him. Clearly, it's important...

0:12:06 > 0:12:08The Government's not creating jobs, so we should create more

0:12:08 > 0:12:11- ourselves.- So that's one.

0:12:13 > 0:12:17What's important, Ian, is we advertise for these sorts of jobs

0:12:17 > 0:12:20properly, rather than text LOLs here and there.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23No. I accept your point that the Tories are the Tories,

0:12:23 > 0:12:25and therefore evil.

0:12:26 > 0:12:30But there was this poll saying that he was a bit weird. Erm...

0:12:30 > 0:12:32and that the public weren't going to vote for him.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35Is that a problem for the Labour Party?

0:12:35 > 0:12:38Moving towards coming third to UKIP?

0:12:38 > 0:12:41- What's important is that we move forward...- Good.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44..and we make sure that we have the right tools

0:12:44 > 0:12:47- at our disposal to make sure... - Tools.- Yeah.

0:12:49 > 0:12:52- APPLAUSE - I just said...

0:12:54 > 0:12:56- He had a good joke...- Did he?

0:12:56 > 0:12:58- ..about the Royal Mail sell-off. - Oh, yeah?

0:12:58 > 0:13:01He said that Cameron wasn't the wolf of Wall Street -

0:13:01 > 0:13:04he was the dunce of Downing Street.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06Shoo!

0:13:06 > 0:13:10- I don't know if you rate that. - He writes all his own stuff.- Yeah.

0:13:10 > 0:13:13I think we sort of knew that. Erm...

0:13:16 > 0:13:18Whoever gets the job with Ed will

0:13:18 > 0:13:20also be overseeing all visual images.

0:13:20 > 0:13:25Basically, it's to stop pictures appearing of him looking stupid...

0:13:25 > 0:13:27- like these. - LAUGHTER

0:13:36 > 0:13:38That's to get the Mexican vote.

0:13:38 > 0:13:41Anyone remember Gordon Brown hiring someone to do

0:13:41 > 0:13:43this at the end of his time as Prime Minister?

0:13:43 > 0:13:48Yes, there was all the sort of grinning. The...sort of stuff.

0:13:48 > 0:13:51It looked like he'd been given a small electric shock.

0:13:51 > 0:13:55- Anyone remember the name of whoever it was?- No.

0:13:55 > 0:13:57- Nicola Burdett, she was called.- No.

0:13:57 > 0:14:00She had a specific brief to try and stop embarrassing photos

0:14:00 > 0:14:03being taken of Gordon.

0:14:13 > 0:14:16- He was at a school and I think it was a project.- Yes.

0:14:16 > 0:14:19I don't think it was a local headquarters or...

0:14:22 > 0:14:24It wasn't at home with Nigel Farage.

0:14:24 > 0:14:27Ed did an odd thing on television the other day.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30He appeared to sniff the woman sitting next to him...

0:14:33 > 0:14:35..on ITV's show The Agenda.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38Cos I would love to see you back in power,

0:14:38 > 0:14:41but what I would love you to do is to take risks...

0:14:47 > 0:14:50Can anyone show me what this chart shows?

0:14:50 > 0:14:54Amount of friends on trial at the moment.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57LAUGHTER

0:14:57 > 0:14:59Is it body temperature?

0:14:59 > 0:15:01LAUGHTER

0:15:06 > 0:15:10It's a percentage of people who think leaders are weird

0:15:10 > 0:15:12or very weird.

0:15:13 > 0:15:15Now, if Ed's looking for pointers,

0:15:15 > 0:15:17here's some strong, confident broadcasting

0:15:17 > 0:15:20from a Republican candidate in the US.

0:15:20 > 0:15:21I'm Joni Ernst.

0:15:21 > 0:15:24I grew up castrating hogs on an Iowa farm.

0:15:24 > 0:15:26So when I get to Washington,

0:15:26 > 0:15:28I'll know how to cut pork.

0:15:28 > 0:15:29HOG SQUEALS

0:15:29 > 0:15:33LAUGHTER

0:15:33 > 0:15:35Was she allowed to castrate hogs

0:15:35 > 0:15:38or was it something she just did out of sheer malice?

0:15:38 > 0:15:41She just went to the nearest hog farm, "I'll have them. Hey-hey!"

0:15:41 > 0:15:44- I have one question about her. - Only one?- Mm.

0:15:44 > 0:15:45Is she married?

0:15:48 > 0:15:52Paul and Richard, here's another for you.

0:15:52 > 0:15:55Ah, this, of course, is the flag of the European Union, we know that.

0:15:55 > 0:15:59Ah, yes, Nigel Farage and he's on his way to a public ceremony -

0:15:59 > 0:16:01gays are allowed to get married since Sunday.

0:16:01 > 0:16:04It's fantastic, really good news, brilliant,

0:16:04 > 0:16:07and this couple here amongst the first to actually say the rites

0:16:07 > 0:16:09and now they're husband and husband.

0:16:09 > 0:16:11- Fantastic news.- Aww, it's lovely. - It's a lovely story.

0:16:11 > 0:16:14A lot of people think it won't last but I'm all for it.

0:16:14 > 0:16:16They've had a couple of arguments, a couple of them in public,

0:16:16 > 0:16:19but they'll get together as a couple and they'll be absolutely fine.

0:16:19 > 0:16:23I think it's the story about Nick Clegg and Nigel Farage

0:16:23 > 0:16:25having a TV debate.

0:16:25 > 0:16:28I quite enjoyed the debate and I think cos of the way I watched it

0:16:28 > 0:16:31because I didn't watch the pictures, I just had the audio,

0:16:31 > 0:16:33so I just had the audio and then I turned the volume right down

0:16:33 > 0:16:35and I genuinely enjoyed it.

0:16:37 > 0:16:40Well, it's slightly odd. You're the Deputy Prime Minister

0:16:40 > 0:16:41and you're taking on, on live television,

0:16:41 > 0:16:44a man who hasn't got one MP.

0:16:44 > 0:16:46- And he wins.- Mm.

0:16:46 > 0:16:49You know, this is supposed to be equal status.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52Apparently, Clegg told Farage...

0:16:53 > 0:16:55..to which Farage replied...

0:16:58 > 0:17:01Now, Nick had some zingers of his own. Did anyone catch any?

0:17:01 > 0:17:05There's one saying, "Next, Mr Farage, you'll be telling us that

0:17:05 > 0:17:08- "there's a man on the moon and Elvis is still alive."- Yeah.

0:17:08 > 0:17:11Nick Clegg did a whole thing about Nigel Farage's mum.

0:17:11 > 0:17:13Did about five minutes about it.

0:17:14 > 0:17:15That's right, yeah.

0:17:15 > 0:17:19This is the fascinating battle between a political outsider

0:17:19 > 0:17:21with crackpot ideas about Europe

0:17:21 > 0:17:23and Nigel Farage.

0:17:23 > 0:17:26After the debate, Farage was told that the polls gave him

0:17:26 > 0:17:28a high approval rating...

0:17:28 > 0:17:30to which he replied, "That's very kind of them.

0:17:30 > 0:17:33"There's still far too many of them over here."

0:17:35 > 0:17:38And so to Round Two, the Picture Spin quiz.

0:17:38 > 0:17:39Fingers on buzzers, teams.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46- Yes?- The new set of stamps.

0:17:49 > 0:17:50- BUZZER - Yes?

0:17:50 > 0:17:52Is it Nigel Farage's nightmare?

0:17:56 > 0:17:58This is the news that new computer software

0:17:58 > 0:18:02recognised 21 distinct facial expressions

0:18:02 > 0:18:05when before it was thought we only had six.

0:18:05 > 0:18:08Ohio State University have discovered that

0:18:08 > 0:18:10as well as common facial expressions

0:18:10 > 0:18:13such as happy, sad, etc...

0:18:16 > 0:18:18I love etc, I can always do etc.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20Um, there...

0:18:20 > 0:18:25There are compound emotions such as fearfully angry

0:18:25 > 0:18:27which looks like this...

0:18:27 > 0:18:30Has she just come back from the hairdresser's?

0:18:30 > 0:18:32All right, what do you think this one is?

0:18:32 > 0:18:35Is it, "Oh, my God, where are my teeth?"

0:18:37 > 0:18:40No, this woman is sadly surprised.

0:18:40 > 0:18:44Right, now, Ian, I'd like you to demonstrate some of them for me.

0:18:44 > 0:18:46Here are three expressions...

0:18:48 > 0:18:51- This one's embarrassedly apprehensive.- No, wait.

0:18:52 > 0:18:55These are three expressions you often use,

0:18:55 > 0:18:57so please show me disgusted.

0:18:59 > 0:19:02LAUGHTER

0:19:02 > 0:19:03Angrily disgusted.

0:19:03 > 0:19:05This is the Telegraph.

0:19:07 > 0:19:09And then disgustedly surprised.

0:19:10 > 0:19:13LAUGHTER

0:19:15 > 0:19:19APPLAUSE

0:19:19 > 0:19:21- And, Paul...- Oh, yes, go on, then.

0:19:21 > 0:19:23Yeah, I'd like you to go from happy...

0:19:24 > 0:19:26..to happily surprised.

0:19:28 > 0:19:31Wait, there's a third!

0:19:31 > 0:19:33Fearfully disgusted.

0:19:36 > 0:19:39LAUGHTER

0:19:40 > 0:19:42Now, according to the Mail...

0:19:42 > 0:19:43Who won on points?

0:19:43 > 0:19:45I don't know.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48You did a whole black and white film at the end.

0:19:48 > 0:19:50Silent.

0:19:50 > 0:19:54According to the Mail, we reserve sadly angry

0:19:54 > 0:19:56for when someone we care about upsets us.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58Sadiq, would you show us your face

0:19:58 > 0:20:00whenever Ed Miliband opens his mouth?

0:20:00 > 0:20:03Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

0:20:03 > 0:20:07- It's really unfair. - It's gone too far now.

0:20:07 > 0:20:09I'm sorry. Gone too far.

0:20:09 > 0:20:13He's been doing broadly supportive for about an hour.

0:20:13 > 0:20:18LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:20:19 > 0:20:21Fingers on the buzzers, teams.

0:20:25 > 0:20:27- Ian?- Is that the killer smog?

0:20:27 > 0:20:29Yeah, got to be.

0:20:29 > 0:20:32In fact, the Daily Mirror says it's...

0:20:33 > 0:20:35..which sounds pretty bad

0:20:35 > 0:20:38while The Sun asks the question...

0:20:38 > 0:20:39and gives the answer...

0:20:42 > 0:20:44What has caused these dust clouds, please?

0:20:44 > 0:20:47Pollution from Europe and sand from the Sahara.

0:20:47 > 0:20:51The weather conditions have been such that the wind hasn't moved much,

0:20:51 > 0:20:53it's been very still and so this is pollution.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55Apparently, it's not our pollution at all.

0:20:55 > 0:20:59I think you're being a touch Farage-y because I did read that...

0:20:59 > 0:21:02- "A touch Farage-y." - That's what that look is.

0:21:09 > 0:21:13LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:21:14 > 0:21:17There's a certain amount of our pollution here and...

0:21:17 > 0:21:20I mentioned that, you great twit!

0:21:20 > 0:21:22No, you just said it was London, it's all of it.

0:21:22 > 0:21:24- Oh, it's all of it, yeah.- Yeah.

0:21:24 > 0:21:28Because we failed to hit the targets for the dreaded EU clean air act.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30Cameron said it's unacceptable...

0:21:30 > 0:21:32as of this morning.

0:21:32 > 0:21:35This is the smog caused by sand from the Sahara.

0:21:35 > 0:21:39One environmental expert went as far as to say...

0:21:42 > 0:21:44Nice try, Charles.

0:21:47 > 0:21:48According to The Sun,

0:21:48 > 0:21:52one resident described street scenes in Southend as...

0:21:55 > 0:21:57And then the smog descended.

0:21:58 > 0:22:00Time now for the Odd One Out round.

0:22:00 > 0:22:03One between you this week. Fingers on buzzers.

0:22:03 > 0:22:04Your four are...

0:22:04 > 0:22:06Liza Minelli,

0:22:06 > 0:22:07the birth rate in Denmark,

0:22:07 > 0:22:09a cash machine in Nottingham

0:22:09 > 0:22:11and the Turkish Prime Minster's voice.

0:22:11 > 0:22:17SADIQ: I think the Turkish Prime Minister, Erdogan, lost his voice.

0:22:17 > 0:22:20- RICHARD: I'm not surprised the way he flosses, look.- Yeah, dreadful.

0:22:20 > 0:22:23LAUGHTER

0:22:23 > 0:22:28- SADIQ: In Denmark the birth rate's gone down. It's low.- Yeah.

0:22:28 > 0:22:30Erm, Liza Minelli.

0:22:30 > 0:22:31Has she lost her voice?

0:22:31 > 0:22:34- No.- She was in that selfie photograph, wasn't she?

0:22:34 > 0:22:36- The Hollywood...- The Oscars selfie one.

0:22:36 > 0:22:38- The most-tweeted picture ever.- Yeah.

0:22:38 > 0:22:41- And she's at the back.- She's at the back. She can't be seen,

0:22:41 > 0:22:43but she's there. So she's too low.

0:22:43 > 0:22:45- So the birth rate is low.- Mm-hm.

0:22:45 > 0:22:48Now, his voice, I don't know the Turkish Prime Minister,

0:22:48 > 0:22:51but maybe his voice is high. Maybe he's had his voice lowered.

0:22:51 > 0:22:54The cashpoint machine in Nottingham was on the wall too high,

0:22:54 > 0:22:57so the wall should have been lower and she should have been higher.

0:22:57 > 0:23:01- You're so close.- SADIQ: We think the cash machine was too low,

0:23:01 > 0:23:03- just like Liza Minnelli. - You are so close!

0:23:03 > 0:23:07- The odd one out is the Turkish Prime Minister.- It is, but why?

0:23:07 > 0:23:10- He's high.- Ian's got it. They are all too low,

0:23:10 > 0:23:13apart from the voice of the Turkish Prime Minister,

0:23:13 > 0:23:15which was too high.

0:23:15 > 0:23:19Last week, the Turkish Prime Minister, Recep Erdogan,

0:23:19 > 0:23:22gave a campaign speech in which his voice rose

0:23:22 > 0:23:25to an inexplicably high pitch.

0:23:27 > 0:23:29Here's how he usually sounds...

0:23:29 > 0:23:32HE SPEAKS TURKISH AT NORMAL PITCH

0:23:34 > 0:23:36And here's what happened

0:23:36 > 0:23:39and, honestly, we haven't tampered with the audio.

0:23:39 > 0:23:43HE SPEAKS IN VERY HIGH-PITCHED VOICE

0:23:53 > 0:23:56He's clearly doing an impression of something.

0:23:56 > 0:23:58In truth, he had a sore throat

0:23:58 > 0:24:01and had to be voiced by Sarah Millican.

0:24:01 > 0:24:04The cash machine in Nottingham. Yes, this cash machine

0:24:04 > 0:24:07was outside a supermarket and it made the news this week

0:24:07 > 0:24:10for being just 15 inches off the ground, and here it is.

0:24:13 > 0:24:17That's like me with a normal cash machine, if I'm honest.

0:24:17 > 0:24:20Obviously, the first thing you need to do is check your balance,

0:24:20 > 0:24:22otherwise you'll fall over.

0:24:24 > 0:24:28- Liza Minnelli...- Yeah.- She was too short to get into the back

0:24:28 > 0:24:32- of a group selfie taken at this year's Oscars...- I didn't know that.

0:24:32 > 0:24:35There's the selfie, and here's the view behind.

0:24:35 > 0:24:38- There she is! - AUDIENCE: Aw...

0:24:38 > 0:24:40Liza with a Z...but no ladder.

0:24:40 > 0:24:43There we go.

0:24:43 > 0:24:46Aw. I haven't seen an actress cut out of a photo like that

0:24:46 > 0:24:50since Chris Martin started going through his holiday snaps.

0:24:52 > 0:24:55And it's time now for the Missing Words round, which this week

0:24:55 > 0:25:00features, as its guest publication, Your Chickens.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02Very wisely, the issues aren't numbered

0:25:02 > 0:25:07because, as we know, it's best not to count your chickens.

0:25:07 > 0:25:08And we start with...

0:25:11 > 0:25:13What?

0:25:13 > 0:25:17RICHARD: If you think that's bad, I used to be called Sandra Herpes.

0:25:20 > 0:25:22Sandra Clapp asks...

0:25:25 > 0:25:27- Aw, poor Sandra.- Next.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32SADIQ: This shower of Government have run out of ideas

0:25:32 > 0:25:35and don't know what to put in the Queen's Speech.

0:25:35 > 0:25:38RICHARD: Because Colin Firth is still refusing to play the part.

0:25:38 > 0:25:40The answer is...

0:25:42 > 0:25:45Yeah! Sadiq said that! He said that!

0:25:45 > 0:25:47Right, next.

0:25:49 > 0:25:51- What?- Seeks similar.

0:25:54 > 0:25:56Good sense of humour essential.

0:25:56 > 0:25:59Is it, ironically catches fire?

0:25:59 > 0:26:02The crisps in question were actually Walkers crisps.

0:26:02 > 0:26:06I thought they were Frazzles!

0:26:06 > 0:26:07They are now.

0:26:07 > 0:26:11Fire crews were alerted after the sound of fire was picked up

0:26:11 > 0:26:14by a powerful listening device -

0:26:14 > 0:26:17Gary Lineker's ears.

0:26:17 > 0:26:18And finally...

0:26:22 > 0:26:24RICHARD: Liza Minnelli?

0:26:24 > 0:26:27JENNIFER CHUCKLES

0:26:29 > 0:26:31Boris Johnson!

0:26:31 > 0:26:32Think chicken.

0:26:32 > 0:26:35Oh, um.. No, I can't say that.

0:26:36 > 0:26:37The answer is...

0:26:40 > 0:26:43This is the cockerel who managed to hide himself amongst

0:26:43 > 0:26:46a group of hens without being discovered.

0:26:46 > 0:26:50The cockerel now lives under the watchful eye of Claire MacDonald

0:26:50 > 0:26:53of a farm she presumably inherited from her father...

0:26:54 > 0:26:56..Old.

0:26:58 > 0:27:00So the final scores are -

0:27:00 > 0:27:03Paul's team has six

0:27:03 > 0:27:04and Ian's team has 10.

0:27:04 > 0:27:06APPLAUSE

0:27:09 > 0:27:13But before we go, there's just time for the caption competition.

0:27:13 > 0:27:16RICHARD: If anyone knows of any just impediment or unlawful porpoise...

0:27:21 > 0:27:23Next.

0:27:24 > 0:27:28- AS PRINCE PHILIP: - What the fuck's this?!

0:27:33 > 0:27:36Not remotely witty at all. I do apologise.

0:27:36 > 0:27:40And also, I don't think the Pope would say that.

0:27:42 > 0:27:44On which note we say thank you to our panellists...

0:27:44 > 0:27:46- Is that it?!- Yes, it is.

0:27:46 > 0:27:50..Ian Hislop and Sadiq Khan, Paul Merton and Richard Osman.

0:27:50 > 0:27:54I leave you with news that, in Los Angeles, a leading cosmetic surgeon

0:27:54 > 0:27:57takes delivery of Jennifer Lopez's new buttock implants.

0:28:02 > 0:28:04In Kuala Lumpur, the Malaysian military admit

0:28:04 > 0:28:05their initial attempts to find the

0:28:05 > 0:28:07missing plane were somewhat substandard.

0:28:12 > 0:28:15And the hidden camera captures the scene below Richard Osman's

0:28:15 > 0:28:17desk in the Pointless studio.

0:28:22 > 0:28:28- Good night. - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
