This is genuinely very spooky indeed, | 0:00:02 | 0:00:03 | |
I was hosting this show the week Saddam Hussein was captured. | 0:00:03 | 0:00:06 | |
I was hosting this show the week Osama Bin Laden was captured, | 0:00:07 | 0:00:12 | |
and today, ladies and gentlemen, the day Westlife split up, here I am. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:16 | |
Good evening, and welcome to Have I Got News For You. | 0:00:55 | 0:00:57 | |
I'm Alexander Armstrong. In the news this week... | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
As news of the demise of Colonel Gaddafi flashes around the world, | 0:01:00 | 0:01:03 | |
there is evidence that his team of 20 young female bodyguards | 0:01:03 | 0:01:06 | |
may not be out of work for long. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
In South London, a reporter makes an impassioned appeal | 0:01:13 | 0:01:16 | |
for information regarding the whereabouts | 0:01:16 | 0:01:18 | |
of a confused elderly Australian sports fan. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:20 | |
And before performing at the O2 Arena, | 0:01:29 | 0:01:31 | |
Dame Vera Lynn is less than impressed | 0:01:31 | 0:01:33 | |
with the toilet facilities. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:34 | |
On Ian's team tonight is a Tory MP and chick-lit author, | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
who describes her work as "trashy, with no redeeming merit", | 0:01:44 | 0:01:47 | |
on the other hand her chick-lit books are great, | 0:01:47 | 0:01:50 | |
please welcome, Louise Mensch. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:51 | |
With Paul tonight is a writer and presenter | 0:01:58 | 0:02:00 | |
who recently described BBC executives as | 0:02:00 | 0:02:03 | |
"soulless, soulless bastards", | 0:02:03 | 0:02:05 | |
which some might say is a little heavy on the soulless | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
and a little light on the bastards, please welcome, Danny Baker. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:11 | |
Let's start with a fairly big story, take a look at this. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
No-one stops and searches a tractor, do they? | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
Oh, they're happy. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
Oh, no, he's back. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
Oh, there we are, in case we didn't know what the story was. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:31 | |
Nice, safe celebrations there. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
So, Gaddafi's dead, big comedy moment. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:38 | |
Where was he found? | 0:02:38 | 0:02:40 | |
-A sewer. -In a sewer pipe. -A sewer pipe, yeah. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:43 | |
They are always found underground, never in the air. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:45 | |
There must be something online, called "tunnels for tyrants". | 0:02:45 | 0:02:50 | |
TFT! | 0:02:50 | 0:02:51 | |
They're always so mean because they must be offered, | 0:02:51 | 0:02:54 | |
"Do you want the single pipe or do you want the multi-warren? | 0:02:54 | 0:02:58 | |
"No. Just the single pipe for me!" There is never a way out. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
They learned their lesson this time, | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
with Saddam, he was found and they had to put him on trial, | 0:03:03 | 0:03:06 | |
but luckily, this time he was shot. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:07 | |
So we didn't have to see all the character witnesses | 0:03:07 | 0:03:10 | |
turning out for Gaddafi. Tony Blair...! | 0:03:10 | 0:03:14 | |
Oh, yeah. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:16 | |
He didn't get one last broadcast, I used to enjoy his radio shows. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:20 | |
A trip down memory lane with Colonel Gaddafi. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:24 | |
He used to say, "The running dog, treacherous vultures of Washington | 0:03:24 | 0:03:28 | |
"shall pay for their duplicity in the noble blood of a desert race, | 0:03:28 | 0:03:34 | |
"and now for Tracey and all at 35, here is The Beach Boys." | 0:03:34 | 0:03:38 | |
Cryptically Al-Jazeera started off saying that | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
"a big fish had been found". | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
While a BBC reporter announced that... | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
They've got Mick Hucknall! | 0:03:50 | 0:03:52 | |
There was instant reaction around the world, | 0:03:53 | 0:03:56 | |
including the Daily Mail website | 0:03:56 | 0:03:58 | |
where the following message was posted by Shaun from London, | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
Oh, do piss off, Shaun! | 0:04:06 | 0:04:08 | |
How did the people of Sirte celebrate the news? | 0:04:13 | 0:04:15 | |
They fired bullets into the air. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:17 | |
It's very dangerous to shoot a bullet in the air, | 0:04:17 | 0:04:20 | |
it can come down and kill you. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:21 | |
On fireworks night, I wonder where the rockets come down, | 0:04:21 | 0:04:25 | |
I think this is the lesson, some good could come out of this. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:29 | |
The last bit of the rocket to come down is the wooden stick. | 0:04:29 | 0:04:32 | |
-Yeah. There you are. You could be impaled. -Yeah, you would. | 0:04:32 | 0:04:35 | |
With the rocket still flaming away up there. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:37 | |
It lands on your head and you go to school the next day | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
-and you don't know about it. -That is how this happened. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
See? That's how that happened. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:43 | |
That was a Catherine wheel gone wrong. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:46 | |
Do you know what else were they doing in Sirte as celebration? | 0:04:46 | 0:04:49 | |
Were they dressing up as Gaddafi? | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
Dangerous, I would have thought. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:53 | |
Too soon, too soon. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:56 | |
Apparently, the shops were thrown open so people could help themselves | 0:04:56 | 0:04:59 | |
to whatever they fancied, | 0:04:59 | 0:05:01 | |
a tradition started in Tottenham this year! | 0:05:01 | 0:05:02 | |
Andrew Mitchell, the International Development Secretary said... | 0:05:06 | 0:05:10 | |
He's the cabinet minister with special responsibility for brown nosing. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:19 | |
This is the death of Colonel Gaddafi, | 0:05:21 | 0:05:23 | |
one of the first world leaders to comment was Silvio Berlusconi | 0:05:23 | 0:05:26 | |
who said Sic Transit Gloria Mundi, but it turns out he was saying | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
that one of his girlfriends had thrown up in a mini-bus. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:32 | |
That is the oldest joke I have ever heard. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:38 | |
It was revealed in the last week that Colonel Gaddafi had been hoping | 0:05:38 | 0:05:41 | |
to negotiate a safe passage out of Libya with a high ranking British contact, | 0:05:41 | 0:05:45 | |
but for some reason, Adam Werritty never turned up. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:47 | |
Ian and Louise, take a look at this. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:52 | |
Oh, he's not bitter. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:54 | |
The former Defence Secretary. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:56 | |
The wrath of something flashing over the Cabinet Office, | 0:05:56 | 0:06:00 | |
there's Gus O'Donnell looking scary. Diary. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:03 | |
Rather empty now, but he's gone. | 0:06:03 | 0:06:05 | |
Dr Fox resigned and he's got a £17,000 pay-off. | 0:06:05 | 0:06:08 | |
David Cameron says we've got to put the story behind us, | 0:06:08 | 0:06:11 | |
forget about it, it was embarrassing, it's over. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:14 | |
-What's wrong with that? -What's wrong with that? It isn't! | 0:06:14 | 0:06:17 | |
Isn't it? | 0:06:17 | 0:06:18 | |
Not if I can help it! | 0:06:18 | 0:06:21 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:06:21 | 0:06:23 | |
Were you there for his goodbye resignation speech? | 0:06:26 | 0:06:29 | |
-I did hear his resignation speech. -Were you moved? | 0:06:29 | 0:06:31 | |
I was moved, especially when he thanked his wife | 0:06:31 | 0:06:34 | |
and people around him targeted by the media, I was moved by that. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:37 | |
Did you think, "God, the media, they're to blame?" | 0:06:37 | 0:06:41 | |
I don't know... I don't think the media... | 0:06:41 | 0:06:42 | |
If it hadn't been for the media, he would still be in his job! | 0:06:42 | 0:06:46 | |
I thought that there were legitimate things the media asked | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |
and totally illegitimate things. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:50 | |
Which ones were they? | 0:06:50 | 0:06:52 | |
The innuendo about his personal life. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:54 | |
He said he blurred his personal and professional life, | 0:06:54 | 0:06:57 | |
so presumably we were entitled to ask about the personal life. | 0:06:57 | 0:07:01 | |
There was a legitimate area of enquiry, that's perfectly fine, | 0:07:01 | 0:07:04 | |
most of the coverage was not about that legitimate area of enquiry. | 0:07:04 | 0:07:07 | |
So he had his mate in the room, who wasn't security vetted, | 0:07:07 | 0:07:10 | |
who was listening to briefings he shouldn't. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:13 | |
A mate paid by shadowy transatlantic interests, | 0:07:13 | 0:07:16 | |
including the Israeli Government and the Iranians and others, | 0:07:16 | 0:07:19 | |
who were paying through a fake company called... | 0:07:19 | 0:07:22 | |
What was it called? Sat-nav, or Par Gav or something, | 0:07:22 | 0:07:25 | |
which managed to fork out all the money. | 0:07:25 | 0:07:28 | |
It was a really shocking dereliction of duty. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:31 | |
It was a breach of the ministerial code and he resigned for it... | 0:07:31 | 0:07:33 | |
It was a breach of the code. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:35 | |
That sounds like he's ripped his trousers. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:37 | |
It seems an extraordinary thing to take your mate along | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
when dealing with nuclear warheads and that. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:47 | |
"Come in, he's all right, he's all right. Come on, sit down." | 0:07:47 | 0:07:51 | |
Order some drinks up, we will have this done in ten minutes, go on! | 0:07:51 | 0:07:55 | |
-There was some cheap innuendo, wasn't there? Quite a lot of it. -No. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:59 | |
There was no cheap innuendo at all? | 0:07:59 | 0:08:00 | |
If Adam Werritty had been a young girl, | 0:08:00 | 0:08:03 | |
17 years younger than the minister.... | 0:08:03 | 0:08:05 | |
who he'd met at a university, put in his own house, given a job, | 0:08:05 | 0:08:09 | |
stuck with him, and taken on holiday to a four-star hotel, | 0:08:09 | 0:08:12 | |
then you would have seen some proper innuendo! | 0:08:12 | 0:08:15 | |
So you are saying Fox resigned because he did something wrong, | 0:08:19 | 0:08:23 | |
or did he? | 0:08:23 | 0:08:24 | |
Here is his colleague Peter Bone MP on Newsnight. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:27 | |
Why not just accept the obvious, that because... | 0:08:27 | 0:08:29 | |
He resigned because he did something wrong. | 0:08:29 | 0:08:31 | |
Absolutely not. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:33 | |
He resigned because he did something right? | 0:08:33 | 0:08:35 | |
He resigned, yes, because he did something right. | 0:08:35 | 0:08:38 | |
I think if Fox's name hadn't been Fox, there wouldn't be sympathy. | 0:08:40 | 0:08:45 | |
I mean, everyone can say Fox was hounded or Fox was hunted. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:49 | |
What if he'd been called Dr Liam Piranha? | 0:08:49 | 0:08:53 | |
Dr Liam Vampire-Squid. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:58 | |
I think we would have had a more accurate representation. | 0:09:00 | 0:09:03 | |
David Cameron said he felt ministerial rules needed to be tightened. | 0:09:03 | 0:09:08 | |
Perhaps what he meant was followed? | 0:09:08 | 0:09:11 | |
Political lobbying is in the spotlight again | 0:09:13 | 0:09:15 | |
after the Fox affair. | 0:09:15 | 0:09:16 | |
David Cameron has been outspoken on this issue for a number of years. | 0:09:16 | 0:09:20 | |
Anyone know what he said about this previously? | 0:09:20 | 0:09:22 | |
He said it was the next big scandal and needed to be sorted out. | 0:09:22 | 0:09:25 | |
Absolutely... | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 | |
And we are sorting it out, we're bringing in a register on lobbyists. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:30 | |
It was recommended in 2009 by the Select Committee, | 0:09:30 | 0:09:33 | |
Labour voted against it, we are going to bring it in. | 0:09:33 | 0:09:36 | |
Let sunshine win the day. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:38 | |
Who's competing against sunshine for the day? | 0:09:38 | 0:09:40 | |
"Let sunshine win the day" - | 0:09:40 | 0:09:42 | |
who is sunshine competing against for the honour of the day? | 0:09:42 | 0:09:45 | |
I think the night. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:46 | |
-The night can't compete for the day... -It can try! | 0:09:46 | 0:09:49 | |
..its hours are completely different! | 0:09:49 | 0:09:51 | |
You need sunshine to win the day. | 0:09:51 | 0:09:53 | |
This isn't your most controversial policy, is it? | 0:09:53 | 0:09:56 | |
Sunshine's better than the night-time! | 0:09:58 | 0:10:00 | |
These things only tend to happen once resignation, shame, | 0:10:02 | 0:10:05 | |
police involved, it is like they've been caught shoplifting and said, | 0:10:05 | 0:10:08 | |
"You know what? I'm never doing that again. | 0:10:08 | 0:10:11 | |
"That's in my favour. How about that?" | 0:10:11 | 0:10:14 | |
I blur the distinction between thieving and not thieving. | 0:10:14 | 0:10:17 | |
Another beneficiary of the distraction | 0:10:18 | 0:10:21 | |
provided by the Fox debacle was Oliver Letwin, | 0:10:21 | 0:10:25 | |
or as the Mirror called him... | 0:10:25 | 0:10:26 | |
What has gaffe-prone millionaire buffoon Letwin been up to? | 0:10:31 | 0:10:35 | |
He was found in park throwing away papers, | 0:10:35 | 0:10:38 | |
the Mirror said they were secret, they weren't secret or classified, | 0:10:38 | 0:10:41 | |
but Oliver was throwing them away in a bin. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:44 | |
So it was harmless? It was nothing? Fox has meetings abroad, | 0:10:44 | 0:10:46 | |
and there's nothing in those that his mate heard. | 0:10:46 | 0:10:48 | |
There's nothing in these papers. What do your mob actually do? | 0:10:48 | 0:10:52 | |
My uncle lost his job doing his work in the park, he was a grave digger, | 0:10:55 | 0:11:00 | |
so you could see the trouble the council had with that. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:04 | |
A spokesman said... | 0:11:04 | 0:11:06 | |
Is that what Fleet Street calls a scoop? | 0:11:11 | 0:11:15 | |
Letwin has apologised. | 0:11:15 | 0:11:18 | |
I do apologise, because I do understand that constituents may feel | 0:11:18 | 0:11:22 | |
that I shouldn't have allowed their papers to be in that bin. | 0:11:22 | 0:11:29 | |
He shouldn't have allowed it, the papers were going in the bin, | 0:11:30 | 0:11:33 | |
he saw it, but he allowed it! | 0:11:33 | 0:11:35 | |
Things separated from him. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:39 | |
"I saw this happening, I couldn't believe it, but I allowed it!" | 0:11:39 | 0:11:44 | |
And your fellow MP and coalition partner, Mike Hancock, | 0:11:44 | 0:11:47 | |
has been in the news again? | 0:11:47 | 0:11:49 | |
He has. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:50 | |
Debonair Mike Hancock, a stalwart of the Defence Select Committee, | 0:11:50 | 0:11:54 | |
stepped down from it this week, | 0:11:54 | 0:11:56 | |
after it was revealed that a young lady with whom | 0:11:56 | 0:11:58 | |
he had been having an affair might have been a Russian spy. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:01 | |
There is a question that she was allowed to see | 0:12:01 | 0:12:04 | |
some confidential briefings and what have you. | 0:12:04 | 0:12:07 | |
She had a pass, she was vetted by the Commons. | 0:12:07 | 0:12:09 | |
A proper pass or did it just say "advisor" on it?! | 0:12:09 | 0:12:12 | |
A vetted pass, to be fair, | 0:12:14 | 0:12:17 | |
but she was a very young and attractive lady and although... | 0:12:17 | 0:12:20 | |
I hope this isn't innuendo! | 0:12:20 | 0:12:22 | |
It isn't innuendo. She was actually an attractive lady. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:25 | |
The Russian intern and mistress is called Katerina Zatuliveter, | 0:12:27 | 0:12:31 | |
she's currently fighting extradition. | 0:12:31 | 0:12:33 | |
In the papers, Mike Hancock was described as being... | 0:12:33 | 0:12:36 | |
That is code for "a bit of a shagger". | 0:12:41 | 0:12:43 | |
They said she was immensely valuable to Russian intelligence | 0:12:47 | 0:12:51 | |
because of the ease she forms intimate relationship. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:55 | |
That is code for "a bit of a slag". | 0:12:55 | 0:12:58 | |
How come he's only a shagger but she's a slag? That's worse. | 0:13:02 | 0:13:05 | |
Tiny bit of sexism, I think, in the comparable terms that you just used. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:08 | |
It's the code. | 0:13:08 | 0:13:11 | |
Whose code? Is it the blokes' code? | 0:13:11 | 0:13:13 | |
-You're breaching the comics' code. -I'm just saying what the code of the tabloids is. | 0:13:13 | 0:13:17 | |
-It is the male code. -Ahh, the evil tabloids. | 0:13:17 | 0:13:20 | |
Everybody knows what the code means. | 0:13:20 | 0:13:23 | |
I'm not defending the code, I think it is abhorrent! | 0:13:23 | 0:13:28 | |
Can't we say they both have inappropriate relationships? | 0:13:28 | 0:13:31 | |
There we are. | 0:13:31 | 0:13:33 | |
They have blurred the line between not having sex and having sex. | 0:13:33 | 0:13:37 | |
Because they went so fast there was a blur, and they blurred, | 0:13:37 | 0:13:41 | |
who is doing what to who, I have no idea, pass the biscuits, | 0:13:41 | 0:13:44 | |
then they woke up and it was all a dream. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:46 | |
What was Mike Hancock's seduction technique? | 0:13:46 | 0:13:50 | |
He didn't have to do anything, she had the opening line, | 0:13:50 | 0:13:52 | |
"I hear you have a huge naval base in your constituency." | 0:13:52 | 0:13:57 | |
"Want to find out, baby?" | 0:13:57 | 0:14:00 | |
Well, apparently he offered her a CD. | 0:14:00 | 0:14:02 | |
Here's the navel, there's the base, do you know what I mean, darling? | 0:14:02 | 0:14:05 | |
You won't be taking this up the Kremlin, will you? | 0:14:06 | 0:14:09 | |
Yes, no, he offered her a CD. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:15 | |
-A CD? -Yes. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:16 | |
She eventually moved into his London flat. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:20 | |
A while later, he submitted a claim for an iron for the flat. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:23 | |
He said he needed one because... | 0:14:23 | 0:14:25 | |
I bet you do, Mike, you old rascal! | 0:14:27 | 0:14:30 | |
Yes, it's another bad week for the Coalition. | 0:14:30 | 0:14:34 | |
One MP in trouble is Lib Dem Mike Hancock, | 0:14:34 | 0:14:36 | |
whose young lover faces deportation for being a Russian spy. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:40 | |
Miss Zatuliveter was described in court as... | 0:14:40 | 0:14:42 | |
..and Lib Dem backbenchers. | 0:14:45 | 0:14:48 | |
Miss Zatuliveter strongly denies being a spy, | 0:14:51 | 0:14:53 | |
but admits affairs with... | 0:14:53 | 0:14:55 | |
She can always make room in her diary for Hancock's Half Hour! | 0:15:00 | 0:15:04 | |
It is alleged Miss Zatuliveter had an affair with an MP in order | 0:15:07 | 0:15:11 | |
to obtain Government secrets, though if that was all she wanted, | 0:15:11 | 0:15:14 | |
she could have gone to a St James's Park bin. | 0:15:14 | 0:15:17 | |
Paul and Danny, take a look at this. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:22 | |
This is the travellers being run out of the... | 0:15:22 | 0:15:25 | |
-Olympic Stadium is coming on well. -Yes, doing well. | 0:15:25 | 0:15:27 | |
The Olympic rings, only three have turned up. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:31 | |
Yes, that is the demolition | 0:15:33 | 0:15:34 | |
of part of the Dale Farm traveller site near Basildon. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:39 | |
It is reported that several people have been tasered, | 0:15:39 | 0:15:41 | |
many Essex residents thought it was a new beauty treatment! | 0:15:41 | 0:15:44 | |
It is about ten years this has been going on. | 0:15:46 | 0:15:48 | |
They have spent £18 million, essentially, | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
on what is something like 40 families. | 0:15:51 | 0:15:53 | |
It is the most staggering waste of time and effort. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:56 | |
People have said, "I can't believe this much money has been spent on | 0:15:56 | 0:15:59 | |
"what should be, given all the other problems, | 0:15:59 | 0:16:02 | |
"something a bit soluble." | 0:16:02 | 0:16:04 | |
Or at least, in the modern way, turn it into some kind of show. | 0:16:04 | 0:16:08 | |
"The caravan being evicted this week is..." | 0:16:09 | 0:16:13 | |
What's the other protest going on peacefully? | 0:16:16 | 0:16:19 | |
The protest outside St Paul's against the terrible world economy. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:24 | |
They may have to close the gap. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:25 | |
They have already had to close the shop and cafe. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:28 | |
-What is happening to religion? -I know. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:31 | |
They were protesting against the Stock Exchange, | 0:16:31 | 0:16:33 | |
but they couldn't camp outside there, and St Paul's said, | 0:16:33 | 0:16:36 | |
"All right, you can camp here." | 0:16:36 | 0:16:39 | |
It was amusing to see the longest queue ever for Starbucks | 0:16:39 | 0:16:42 | |
in the history of the world in that square | 0:16:42 | 0:16:45 | |
at a protest against capitalism. | 0:16:45 | 0:16:47 | |
What are the London protesters trying to achieve? | 0:16:47 | 0:16:50 | |
The overthrow of the corrupt system, as they see it, no? | 0:16:50 | 0:16:54 | |
They tweet about it on their iPhones, perhaps between getting cafe lattes, | 0:16:54 | 0:16:58 | |
and housing themselves in very fancy tents. | 0:16:58 | 0:17:01 | |
They are against capitalism, except for the lattes. | 0:17:01 | 0:17:04 | |
If they buy coffee, their opinions are worthless? | 0:17:04 | 0:17:07 | |
If they prop up a corporate item like Starbucks, they have to ask | 0:17:09 | 0:17:12 | |
themselves how much of capitalism they really, really don't like... | 0:17:12 | 0:17:15 | |
You can't negate them because they have a cup of coffee. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:18 | |
It is like saying to a condemned man on the way to the gallows, | 0:17:18 | 0:17:21 | |
"You ate your last meal, what's the matter with you?!" | 0:17:21 | 0:17:24 | |
You can't be against capitalism then take everything that it provides and say, | 0:17:24 | 0:17:29 | |
"This is terrific, but I hate the system you provide." | 0:17:29 | 0:17:31 | |
Everything?! A cup of coffee? | 0:17:31 | 0:17:33 | |
One cup of coffee and they can't...? | 0:17:33 | 0:17:35 | |
Can't they be about...? Sorry. | 0:17:36 | 0:17:38 | |
HE MUMBLES | 0:17:38 | 0:17:40 | |
No, no, no. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:41 | |
It is just so obvious, I can't be bothered. | 0:17:41 | 0:17:44 | |
What were you going to say? | 0:17:45 | 0:17:47 | |
You don't have to want to return to a barter system in the Stone Age | 0:17:50 | 0:17:54 | |
to complain about the financial crisis affecting the world, do you? | 0:17:54 | 0:17:59 | |
Even if you're having a cup of coffee and you've got a tent. | 0:17:59 | 0:18:02 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:18:02 | 0:18:04 | |
You really can't get out there and say, "Capitalism is crisis," | 0:18:09 | 0:18:12 | |
and enjoy everything it brings and revel in it. | 0:18:12 | 0:18:14 | |
You keep saying "everything", they had a cup of coffee. | 0:18:14 | 0:18:17 | |
That is not everything! | 0:18:18 | 0:18:20 | |
According to the Guardian... | 0:18:20 | 0:18:22 | |
Right. That sounds really effective. | 0:18:31 | 0:18:34 | |
Much better to get some lobbyists in! | 0:18:34 | 0:18:37 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:18:38 | 0:18:40 | |
What did Matthew Watkinson, an extra from Downton Abbey say? | 0:18:40 | 0:18:44 | |
If he has drunk coffee, I'm not interested. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:47 | |
I'm not interested. He's worthless! | 0:18:47 | 0:18:49 | |
His opinion is of no value at all. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:52 | |
If I can smell an espresso on your breath, get out of here. | 0:18:52 | 0:18:56 | |
So Matthew Watkinson, an extra from Downton Abbey...? | 0:18:57 | 0:19:00 | |
Is he from upstairs or downstairs? That will make a difference. | 0:19:00 | 0:19:03 | |
I don't know. He could be both. | 0:19:03 | 0:19:05 | |
He could be saying, | 0:19:05 | 0:19:06 | |
-IN A CORNISH ACCENT: -"Yes, my Lord", | 0:19:06 | 0:19:08 | |
or he could be saying, | 0:19:08 | 0:19:09 | |
-IN A POSH VOICE: -"Hello!" | 0:19:09 | 0:19:12 | |
I've not yet seen it, I now don't need to. | 0:19:12 | 0:19:15 | |
That's it, that's the whole plot. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:17 | |
Have you not seen Downton Abbey? | 0:19:17 | 0:19:19 | |
No, I was on tour when it was on, last time. This time... | 0:19:19 | 0:19:22 | |
Pfft... missed it! | 0:19:22 | 0:19:24 | |
You blurred the line between watching it and missing it, | 0:19:24 | 0:19:27 | |
you blurred that line. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:29 | |
Anyway, Matthew Watkinson told the Mail why he was at the camp. | 0:19:29 | 0:19:33 | |
He said...: | 0:19:33 | 0:19:35 | |
Right, yes(!) | 0:19:39 | 0:19:41 | |
This is the battle of Dale Farm. | 0:19:41 | 0:19:42 | |
The leader of Basildon Council, Tony Ball, said... | 0:19:42 | 0:19:45 | |
Those on the outside can taser away as much as they like! | 0:19:48 | 0:19:52 | |
Meanwhile, there have been anti-capitalist protests | 0:19:54 | 0:19:56 | |
in various cities around the world. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:58 | |
Outside St Paul's Cathedral, unemployed protestor Catherine Garraty said... | 0:19:58 | 0:20:01 | |
Things are bad when you have to eat Oliver Letwin's correspondence! | 0:20:03 | 0:20:07 | |
The most violent protests saw young people | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
go on the rampage in Italy, and if anyone's guilty | 0:20:09 | 0:20:12 | |
of screwing the younger generation, it's Silvio Berlusconi. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:16 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:20:18 | 0:20:20 | |
And so to round two, the strengthometer of news, | 0:20:21 | 0:20:25 | |
fingers on buzzers, teams, here is the first one. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:29 | |
They found out this week there is a virus that attacks people | 0:20:32 | 0:20:35 | |
who go in for the essential treatment of having your rough skin | 0:20:35 | 0:20:39 | |
taken off your toes by fish, instead of a pumice stone. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:43 | |
However, you may find you lose a leg. | 0:20:43 | 0:20:46 | |
It's a belief you might be able to catch hepatitis from them, | 0:20:46 | 0:20:49 | |
the fish suffer because they get athlete's gill. | 0:20:49 | 0:20:52 | |
Bunion fin, they get that as well. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:58 | |
It sounds like a country and western singer. Bunion fin. | 0:20:58 | 0:21:01 | |
That's exactly right, Hepatitis C and HIV. You're right. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:04 | |
Let's hear how Newsnight's Emily Maitlis described it | 0:21:04 | 0:21:07 | |
when she had one earlier this year... | 0:21:07 | 0:21:08 | |
Oh, Emily! | 0:21:29 | 0:21:31 | |
Get yourself down the clinic | 0:21:33 | 0:21:35 | |
and take your hepatitic feet with you now. | 0:21:35 | 0:21:37 | |
How could these infections be passed on? | 0:21:37 | 0:21:41 | |
Rumour! | 0:21:41 | 0:21:43 | |
I tend to think it has something to do with whitebait, | 0:21:43 | 0:21:45 | |
-I've not made the connection yet... -No. -..but I'm sure | 0:21:45 | 0:21:48 | |
that once those fish have outlived their usefulness, | 0:21:48 | 0:21:51 | |
several restaurants I know will have them. | 0:21:51 | 0:21:54 | |
Basically you're taking some old boy's toe fat | 0:21:54 | 0:21:59 | |
-and that is how these things get out! -That is the economic reality. | 0:21:59 | 0:22:03 | |
Well, according to The Sun, infections and bacteria | 0:22:04 | 0:22:06 | |
may be passed on by the fish themselves or through water | 0:22:06 | 0:22:09 | |
used by a previous client and left unchanged. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:13 | |
It is not just the feet owners at risk. | 0:22:13 | 0:22:15 | |
What peril do the fish face? | 0:22:15 | 0:22:17 | |
-Don't you call me fish-face! -He's a guest on the programme! | 0:22:17 | 0:22:21 | |
The fish are starving, they are not getting enough to eat. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:25 | |
That's exactly right, yes. | 0:22:25 | 0:22:27 | |
This is the story which made the front page of The Sun under the headline... | 0:22:32 | 0:22:35 | |
..also the somewhat surprising sequel to Tinker Taylor Soldier Spy. | 0:22:38 | 0:22:42 | |
Fingers on buzzers, teams. | 0:22:43 | 0:22:45 | |
It seems fairly self-explanatory. | 0:22:48 | 0:22:50 | |
This is about people changing their names by deed poll. | 0:22:50 | 0:22:53 | |
And we lead the world in it, don't we? | 0:22:53 | 0:22:55 | |
I think I'll give you that. | 0:22:55 | 0:22:57 | |
This is the news that 60,000 people a year now change their names | 0:22:57 | 0:23:00 | |
by deed poll, compared with just 197 in the year 2000. | 0:23:00 | 0:23:03 | |
The process has been dramatically simplified. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:06 | |
Ten years ago it was complicated, now you only need £33 | 0:23:06 | 0:23:09 | |
and a few minutes to fill out the form. | 0:23:09 | 0:23:11 | |
Anyone think of any exceptionally hilarious names being changed? | 0:23:11 | 0:23:14 | |
We can't think of anything hilarious. | 0:23:15 | 0:23:18 | |
That's not what we are here for. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:19 | |
I've come here to read the metre. I don't know why it's taking so long. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:23 | |
There is ASDA worker Greg Lewis, who went for Dr Pasty-Smasher Omelette. | 0:23:23 | 0:23:28 | |
And Liverpool fan Shaun McCormack who changed his name to... | 0:23:28 | 0:23:33 | |
Torres moved to Chelsea a few months later. | 0:23:36 | 0:23:38 | |
What came as a surprise to Dr Pasty-Smasher Omelette? | 0:23:38 | 0:23:41 | |
There was someone else by that name. | 0:23:41 | 0:23:44 | |
He said when he found out he had officially changed his name, | 0:23:44 | 0:23:48 | |
he was surprised. He said... | 0:23:48 | 0:23:49 | |
He's too stupid to be a doctor. | 0:23:56 | 0:23:58 | |
Bang that thing with a hammer again, we've had enough of this one. | 0:23:58 | 0:24:02 | |
Hit me too, I have had enough of this programme. | 0:24:02 | 0:24:05 | |
Apparently some people choose to fuse their surnames | 0:24:09 | 0:24:12 | |
when they get married. | 0:24:12 | 0:24:13 | |
Michael Pugh and Rebecca Griffin fused their surnames | 0:24:13 | 0:24:16 | |
to become Mr and Mrs Puffin. | 0:24:16 | 0:24:18 | |
They told the Telegraph... | 0:24:20 | 0:24:22 | |
Yeah, yeah. Until they manage to scrape together £33. | 0:24:24 | 0:24:28 | |
Sometimes changing your name can involve changing just a vowel, | 0:24:28 | 0:24:32 | |
our very own Paul Martin became Paul Merton, | 0:24:32 | 0:24:35 | |
David Williams became David Walliams | 0:24:35 | 0:24:38 | |
and Brian Cant said it was the best £33 he ever spent. | 0:24:38 | 0:24:41 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:24:41 | 0:24:42 | |
Now for the missing words round, | 0:24:42 | 0:24:45 | |
which this week features as its guest publication, Bin Bulletin... | 0:24:45 | 0:24:47 | |
..specially designed to go straight in, and we start with... | 0:24:49 | 0:24:53 | |
Whose head is that? | 0:24:55 | 0:24:57 | |
I'm afraid it smells a bit? | 0:24:59 | 0:25:01 | |
I'll keep the camera. | 0:25:01 | 0:25:03 | |
This is the story of a person who found a handbag | 0:25:03 | 0:25:06 | |
that was lost at the airport, | 0:25:06 | 0:25:08 | |
sent it back but kept the camera in it as a reward for themselves. | 0:25:08 | 0:25:12 | |
Tabloid readers were shocked that they kept the camera, | 0:25:13 | 0:25:15 | |
rather than the customary thing which is stuff it | 0:25:15 | 0:25:18 | |
down your pants and take a photograph and then return it. | 0:25:18 | 0:25:22 | |
-Physically violated. -Utted. -That's what it is, he was utted. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:31 | |
Demands strip-search of rival. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:35 | |
Ooh-la-la! | 0:25:35 | 0:25:37 | |
Ed Martin was accused of hiding the letter G, | 0:25:37 | 0:25:39 | |
his opponent said he should be strip-searched, | 0:25:39 | 0:25:41 | |
when they searched him in the toilet all they found was a Q. | 0:25:41 | 0:25:45 | |
Tony Blair is a fan of Scrabble. | 0:25:51 | 0:25:53 | |
To this day, it's the only time he's seen WMD in Iraq. | 0:25:53 | 0:25:57 | |
THEY GROAN | 0:25:57 | 0:25:58 | |
Next... | 0:25:58 | 0:26:00 | |
Nutted me. | 0:26:02 | 0:26:03 | |
She didn't seem to mind. | 0:26:07 | 0:26:09 | |
Michael Winner explained... | 0:26:09 | 0:26:10 | |
Her Majesty ignored Michael because that is what everyone tends to do. | 0:26:14 | 0:26:17 | |
Finally... | 0:26:19 | 0:26:20 | |
God does exist. | 0:26:24 | 0:26:26 | |
The mummy returns. | 0:26:29 | 0:26:31 | |
This is the taxi driver who has become the first man to be | 0:26:31 | 0:26:34 | |
mummified in the style of the Ancient Egyptians. | 0:26:34 | 0:26:36 | |
Ancient Egyptians believed in the afterlife you had to cross | 0:26:36 | 0:26:39 | |
the river of fire, I'm guessing he will be the only taxi driver | 0:26:39 | 0:26:42 | |
crossing that river this time of night. | 0:26:42 | 0:26:44 | |
The final scores are, Ian and Louise on six, | 0:26:46 | 0:26:49 | |
Paul and Danny on seven. | 0:26:49 | 0:26:51 | |
Before we go, there is time for the caption competition. | 0:26:56 | 0:26:59 | |
Ian and Louise, you have this. | 0:26:59 | 0:27:01 | |
David Cameron woos the women's vote. | 0:27:01 | 0:27:04 | |
Mrs Thatcher attends Dr Fox's birthday party. | 0:27:05 | 0:27:09 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:27:10 | 0:27:12 | |
Paul and Danny get that. | 0:27:13 | 0:27:15 | |
Specially posed photograph appears in newspapers. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:19 | |
Pied Piper tells Jobcentre, "I've still got it!" | 0:27:20 | 0:27:23 | |
