CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:00:16 | 0:00:20 | |
Hello and welcome to Insert Name Here, | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
where we'll be discovering more than you thought possible about a group | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
of people with just one thing in common - they all have the same name. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:34 | |
Joining me are six of my favourite people, | 0:00:34 | 0:00:36 | |
each bearing their own unique moniker. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:38 | |
Please welcome Alice Roberts, | 0:00:38 | 0:00:40 | |
Hugh Dennis and their team captain, Josh Widdicombe. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
And Lucy Porter, Omid Djalili | 0:00:42 | 0:00:44 | |
and their captain, Richard Osman! | 0:00:44 | 0:00:46 | |
And so, the all-important question, which name will be featured tonight? | 0:00:51 | 0:00:55 | |
Well, it's the one that is on everybody's lips, | 0:00:55 | 0:00:57 | |
it's the name of our future king, the world's richest nerd | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
and the name of my first pet rabbit. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:03 | |
Tonight's name is William. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:06 | |
So, tonight we'll be talking about Williams. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:13 | |
Just to be clear, that does include Wills, Bills, Billys, | 0:01:13 | 0:01:16 | |
and your aim is to win as many of them as you can. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:20 | |
At the end of the show, the team with the most Wills gets | 0:01:20 | 0:01:22 | |
the privilege of naming the best William of all time. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
Alice, do you know any Wills? | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
I've been racking my brains about this | 0:01:27 | 0:01:29 | |
and I'm sure that I'm going to say no and then I'll be inundated... | 0:01:29 | 0:01:32 | |
You're going to get so many Willy texts after this! | 0:01:32 | 0:01:35 | |
All from Richard! | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
There was a man who I thought was called Bernie for a very long time, | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
and it turned out he was actually called Bill, | 0:01:40 | 0:01:43 | |
but I carried on calling him Bernie. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:45 | |
I'd prefer to change my own name to Bernie... | 0:01:45 | 0:01:48 | |
than have the awkwardness of trying to tell them | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
they've got my name wrong. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:52 | |
I agree with Jacob. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:54 | |
I'm Mel, but I've been called Sue for the last 27 years! | 0:01:54 | 0:01:57 | |
Oh, I thought you were Paul Hollywood! | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
Do you know any, Richard? Are you familiar with any Williams, Billys? | 0:02:00 | 0:02:03 | |
Um, funnily enough, we did a round on Pointless which was | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
Famous Williams, and always, on any board, there is | 0:02:06 | 0:02:08 | |
always one very easy one, just so, you know, my mum can play. | 0:02:08 | 0:02:12 | |
And, um... | 0:02:12 | 0:02:13 | |
And the easiest one on this board was, | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
"Which William wrote the play Othello?" | 0:02:16 | 0:02:18 | |
And the person who answered, who, I might add, was a student, | 0:02:18 | 0:02:22 | |
said, "Oh, I know this one, it is... | 0:02:22 | 0:02:25 | |
"William Tell." | 0:02:25 | 0:02:26 | |
Now it's time to pick a Will. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
Our teams must choose a category and behind each category lurks | 0:02:30 | 0:02:34 | |
a famous Will, which they have to win by answering a crunch question. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:37 | |
Josh, we're going to start off with you. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:39 | |
What would you like out of this lot? | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
Um, shall we go Stratford Will? | 0:02:47 | 0:02:49 | |
-I quite like French Will, but... -Yeah? | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
Well, let's go French Will, then. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:52 | |
You know, it's a democracy, isn't it? | 0:02:52 | 0:02:54 | |
- What, France? - Yeah. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:56 | |
Well, at the time of recording! | 0:02:57 | 0:03:00 | |
-Um, we'll go French Will. -OK, you have chosen French Will. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:04 | |
It's the first William, star of stage, screen and tapestry, | 0:03:04 | 0:03:08 | |
William the Conqueror. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:09 | |
Let's have a look at his stats. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:11 | |
Now, we all know him as William the Conqueror, | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
but what did his contemporaries call him? | 0:03:25 | 0:03:27 | |
It'll just be William, because he hadn't conquered by that point. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:30 | |
A lot of the kings, a lot of people from history, | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
have spoiler alerts in their name, to be fair. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
If you were a kid, just starting to learn this, you'd go, | 0:03:34 | 0:03:36 | |
"William the Conqueror? Well, I know how this ends!" | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
It would be useful if they had had those names in their life, | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
like, you met Vlad the Impaler and you went, | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
"I'm not going to stick around with you for long..." | 0:03:44 | 0:03:46 | |
For his Tinder profile! I'm going to leave that one... | 0:03:46 | 0:03:50 | |
I think I've seen Vlad the Impaler on many a Tinder profile. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:55 | |
What do you think? He's not the Conqueror, he's pre-Conqueror. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
I know, he was called William the Bastard. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:00 | |
He was called William the Bastard, yes. Do you know why? | 0:04:00 | 0:04:03 | |
Because he was a bastard! | 0:04:03 | 0:04:05 | |
That's another one I'd be tempted with on Tinder, William the Bastard. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:10 | |
You're absolutely right, referred to as The Bastard. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:12 | |
Especially by King Philip of France, or as William called him, | 0:04:12 | 0:04:15 | |
Philippe le Shitstirrer. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:17 | |
William married the noble born Matilda of Flanders. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:20 | |
At four foot two inches tall, | 0:04:20 | 0:04:23 | |
she still holds the Guinness World Record | 0:04:23 | 0:04:25 | |
for being England's smallest queen. Unless, of course, Lucy... | 0:04:25 | 0:04:29 | |
Just wait until I marry Prince Harry! | 0:04:29 | 0:04:31 | |
Just to see, can I ask the two of you to stand up? | 0:04:31 | 0:04:34 | |
I'll point out, before we do, I'm five foot ten. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:38 | |
I'm still... I'm still going! | 0:04:40 | 0:04:42 | |
Who needs Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito? | 0:04:46 | 0:04:49 | |
Your husband is six foot five, right? | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
He is, yeah, in the bedroom, | 0:04:51 | 0:04:52 | |
it's like a ventriloquism act that's gone to a very dark place. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:56 | |
Do you know the first casualty of the Battle of Hastings? | 0:04:58 | 0:05:02 | |
I reckon it was the bloke on the furthest left | 0:05:02 | 0:05:05 | |
of the Bayeux Tapestry. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:07 | |
Of course, | 0:05:09 | 0:05:10 | |
if the guy on the furthest left did the thing where he ran all the | 0:05:10 | 0:05:13 | |
way round the back of the tapestry, he'd be furthest right as well. | 0:05:13 | 0:05:16 | |
That's true! | 0:05:16 | 0:05:17 | |
The first casualty of the Battle of Hastings | 0:05:17 | 0:05:19 | |
was William's juggler, Taillefer. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:21 | |
-Who deserved it! -He did! | 0:05:21 | 0:05:23 | |
Basically, before the battle began, | 0:05:23 | 0:05:25 | |
he rode to the front of the invading army and started singing... | 0:05:25 | 0:05:28 | |
-On a unicycle. -# La-la-la! # | 0:05:28 | 0:05:31 | |
He started singing a popular French ballad... | 0:05:31 | 0:05:33 | |
Probably Je T'Aime or something in that. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:36 | |
Just immediately killed by the English. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:38 | |
The English thought, "This is going to be easier than we thought!" | 0:05:38 | 0:05:41 | |
There have been many replicas of the Bayeux Tapestry, | 0:05:41 | 0:05:43 | |
but my favourite is by the Leek Embroidery Society, which made it | 0:05:43 | 0:05:47 | |
in 1835, and which contains some uniquely Victorian touches. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:50 | |
So, it's time now to play spot the difference. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:53 | |
Here is a detail from the Victorian version. | 0:05:53 | 0:05:56 | |
And here is the original. | 0:05:56 | 0:05:58 | |
Oh, he's got a ginger beard in the one on the right. | 0:06:03 | 0:06:07 | |
Is that the juggler? Is that what he was juggling? | 0:06:07 | 0:06:10 | |
Any other differences? | 0:06:10 | 0:06:12 | |
I'm worried that I'm the only one seeing it. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:15 | |
And I'm going to say it and everyone else will go, | 0:06:16 | 0:06:19 | |
"What the hell are you talking about?!" | 0:06:19 | 0:06:21 | |
You might notice, the tree's a different colour... | 0:06:21 | 0:06:24 | |
-JOSH: -Is that what you're calling it, a tree? | 0:06:24 | 0:06:27 | |
-RICHARD: -It appears to be | 0:06:27 | 0:06:29 | |
a plum tree of some sort... | 0:06:29 | 0:06:30 | |
Any other difference? Omid, can you see any other difference there? | 0:06:31 | 0:06:35 | |
I think the one on the right has big, fat, hairy bollocks. | 0:06:35 | 0:06:38 | |
Omid wins the prize. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:41 | |
Unbelievable! | 0:06:41 | 0:06:44 | |
So, this is the question for the Will. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:47 | |
William died in 1087 after a fall from his horse. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:50 | |
What happened to the body at the funeral? | 0:06:50 | 0:06:52 | |
They set fire to it and it went up like a Christmas pudding. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:54 | |
-They didn't set fire to it... -It did explode, didn't it? | 0:06:54 | 0:06:57 | |
-Someone's body exploded, was it his? -He did genuinely explode. | 0:06:57 | 0:07:02 | |
The priests tried to stuff the obese William into a stone coffin, | 0:07:02 | 0:07:06 | |
they pushed on his abdomen slightly too firmly, causing it to burst. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:11 | |
According to the chronicler Vitalis, "The swollen bowels burst," | 0:07:11 | 0:07:14 | |
and an intolerable stench assailed the nostrils of bystanders | 0:07:14 | 0:07:18 | |
and the whole crowd. | 0:07:18 | 0:07:19 | |
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, | 0:07:19 | 0:07:21 | |
intestines to the far side of the church. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:24 | |
Well done, Richard, you win the Will, congratulations. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:28 | |
Thank you, thank you. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:29 | |
And it's your turn, Richard, to pick a Will. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:35 | |
We'll go for Singing Will. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:43 | |
Well, you've plumped for The Voice judge, | 0:07:43 | 0:07:45 | |
entrepreneur and Black Eyed Peas founder William James Adams Jr. | 0:07:45 | 0:07:49 | |
So, let's have a look at his stats. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:50 | |
What's your favourite Black Eyed Peas track? | 0:08:05 | 0:08:07 | |
-Did they do that "Tonight's going to be a -good night"...? Yeah, they did. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:11 | |
Because that is the bane of my bloody life! | 0:08:11 | 0:08:13 | |
Every really rubbish event... | 0:08:13 | 0:08:15 | |
Like, I sort of host things sometimes, and you know... | 0:08:15 | 0:08:18 | |
-Every rubbish event! -Exactly! | 0:08:18 | 0:08:21 | |
You're going to get a lot more of those now! | 0:08:21 | 0:08:24 | |
Then you hear, "Tonight's going to be a good night..." | 0:08:24 | 0:08:27 | |
And you think, I bet it's not. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:30 | |
I wouldn't open with that. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:32 | |
I like his name, will.i.am, | 0:08:33 | 0:08:34 | |
because a lot of people get confused with my name, | 0:08:34 | 0:08:36 | |
because Djalili is spelt D-J-A-L-I-L-I, | 0:08:36 | 0:08:40 | |
and the first gig I did outside of London was in Preston, | 0:08:40 | 0:08:43 | |
and they had, "Tonight, comedy from Omid | 0:08:43 | 0:08:46 | |
"and music from DJ Alili." | 0:08:46 | 0:08:49 | |
That's a true story! So, I love his name, it's a great name. | 0:08:50 | 0:08:53 | |
What would your DJ name be, Richard? | 0:08:53 | 0:08:54 | |
What do you mean, what WOULD it be? | 0:08:54 | 0:08:56 | |
I was unaware that you were, you know, | 0:08:56 | 0:08:59 | |
currently resident at the decks. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:01 | |
Yeah, no, I'm doing an album with Dre next year. I think that, um... | 0:09:01 | 0:09:05 | |
I think, if we had the Notorious BIG, | 0:09:05 | 0:09:07 | |
I might be Notorious TALL. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:10 | |
You and I, we could be Biggie Smalls, Josh. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:13 | |
Oh, that would be lovely, wouldn't it? | 0:09:13 | 0:09:15 | |
Yeah, because that ended well, didn't it, Biggie Smalls(?) | 0:09:15 | 0:09:19 | |
OK, next question, on The Voice, | 0:09:19 | 0:09:21 | |
will.i.am was caught doing something 16 times on one show, what was it? | 0:09:21 | 0:09:25 | |
-Oh, it's... I know this. -Do you? -Yeah, he was... | 0:09:25 | 0:09:28 | |
-It was when he was... Was he on The Voice...? -Yes! | 0:09:28 | 0:09:30 | |
That's what she just said! | 0:09:30 | 0:09:32 | |
That's what she said! | 0:09:32 | 0:09:33 | |
Oh, sorry! | 0:09:33 | 0:09:36 | |
-RICHARD: -I went on to The Voice. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:37 | |
My audition song was Don't Turn Around, by Aswad, | 0:09:37 | 0:09:40 | |
which didn't work well... | 0:09:40 | 0:09:41 | |
Was this on The Voice? | 0:09:44 | 0:09:46 | |
Do you think you know the answer? | 0:09:46 | 0:09:47 | |
Yeah, he was constantly texting, wasn't he, or checking his phone? | 0:09:47 | 0:09:50 | |
Yeah, he was, he was basically tweeting. There he is. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:53 | |
He is a prolific tweeter. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:55 | |
And the classic... | 0:10:01 | 0:10:02 | |
And sometimes, people also tweet him: | 0:10:07 | 0:10:10 | |
There he is. | 0:10:15 | 0:10:16 | |
-Oh, wow! -That's basically Baddie Number Three from any Bond movie. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:22 | |
That looks like real hair! Is that real hair? | 0:10:22 | 0:10:24 | |
I worry that it might be, because the thing about baked goods, | 0:10:24 | 0:10:28 | |
if you do a show around baked goods, people will just bring you them, | 0:10:28 | 0:10:31 | |
unwrapped, anywhere, | 0:10:31 | 0:10:32 | |
when you're going about your daily business, press them | 0:10:32 | 0:10:35 | |
into your hand and just say, "My nan made you a Viennese whirl." | 0:10:35 | 0:10:38 | |
This crumbling mass will just go in... | 0:10:38 | 0:10:41 | |
Pressed quite deeply, no clingfilm, no wrap, nothing sanitised, | 0:10:41 | 0:10:45 | |
and then they will take up their phone | 0:10:45 | 0:10:48 | |
and want to video you eating it. | 0:10:48 | 0:10:50 | |
-No! -Now you've said that, | 0:10:50 | 0:10:52 | |
at least no-one's going to do THAT any more, are they? | 0:10:52 | 0:10:54 | |
We must have had some odd tweets, I reckon, Alice. | 0:10:54 | 0:10:57 | |
I get into Twitter fights occasionally with creationists, | 0:10:57 | 0:10:59 | |
that's my weakness, actually. | 0:10:59 | 0:11:01 | |
My husband always goes, "Don't do it." | 0:11:01 | 0:11:03 | |
And also, you always argue about how it started. | 0:11:03 | 0:11:06 | |
And the argument never evolves! | 0:11:10 | 0:11:13 | |
Never evolves. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:14 | |
They can't use that, because my cup of tea was in the shot. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:17 | |
Sue, tell you what... | 0:11:17 | 0:11:18 | |
And the argument never evolves! | 0:11:18 | 0:11:20 | |
will.i.am has frequently helped innovate or design new products, | 0:11:22 | 0:11:26 | |
although he doesn't call himself an innovator, what does he call himself? | 0:11:26 | 0:11:29 | |
-Is he, like, an imagineer? -Imagineer is along the right lines, yes. | 0:11:29 | 0:11:33 | |
-A dreamalyser. -Oh, that's good. -A visionorator. | 0:11:33 | 0:11:38 | |
This sounds like we're picking our team name on The Apprentice! | 0:11:38 | 0:11:41 | |
He actually calls himself a popthropologist. | 0:11:43 | 0:11:46 | |
A popthropologist! | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
You've been described, Alice, as an anatomist, an anthropologist | 0:11:48 | 0:11:51 | |
and a paleopathologist. Would you add popthropologist to that? | 0:11:51 | 0:11:54 | |
Yeah, definitely! Yeah. | 0:11:54 | 0:11:55 | |
I did an interview with someone who called me a mumedian, | 0:11:55 | 0:11:59 | |
because you know, like, they have mumpreneur? | 0:11:59 | 0:12:02 | |
They said, "Oh, she's a mumedian," and I wanted to stab them to death. | 0:12:02 | 0:12:05 | |
But I didn't, in case the papers called me a mumderer, obviously. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:10 | |
"You have been accused of mumder..." | 0:12:10 | 0:12:14 | |
What did will.i.am recently do for Prince Charles? | 0:12:14 | 0:12:17 | |
Did he play a song for him? | 0:12:17 | 0:12:19 | |
Did he play a song TO him? | 0:12:19 | 0:12:22 | |
Did he play a song TO him? For him? | 0:12:22 | 0:12:23 | |
On him? Up him? Did he use him to play a song? | 0:12:23 | 0:12:26 | |
What, just play him? | 0:12:26 | 0:12:28 | |
-Strum him like a banjo? -I was thinking flute, ear as one of the... | 0:12:28 | 0:12:32 | |
What, you think will.i.am played Prince Charles as a flute? | 0:12:34 | 0:12:37 | |
If it's right, I reckon we should definitely get a point for that. | 0:12:37 | 0:12:40 | |
-Oh, yeah... -Is the correct answer! -Yes! -No, it isn't. | 0:12:40 | 0:12:44 | |
I genuinely fell for that. | 0:12:44 | 0:12:46 | |
He donated £500,000 to the Prince's Trust to help young people | 0:12:46 | 0:12:50 | |
develop technology skills. Here he is with Charles, | 0:12:50 | 0:12:52 | |
or Chazzee Rascal, as he likes to style himself. | 0:12:52 | 0:12:56 | |
That looks like will.i.am's trip to Madame Tussaud's, | 0:12:56 | 0:12:58 | |
that's all that is. | 0:12:58 | 0:12:59 | |
-RICHARD: -It's either will.i.am's trip to Madame Tussaud's, | 0:12:59 | 0:13:03 | |
or Prince Charles's trip to Madame Tussaud's. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:05 | |
will.i.am has created many innovative products. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:08 | |
What's unique about his i.am.plus Puls smartwatch? | 0:13:08 | 0:13:12 | |
I think it just does what most of these things do, which is | 0:13:12 | 0:13:14 | |
measure your heart rate and tell you how fit you are, | 0:13:14 | 0:13:17 | |
but on the side, there's a little tiny cupboard, | 0:13:17 | 0:13:19 | |
and if you open it, there is a brand-new selection | 0:13:19 | 0:13:21 | |
of Duchy Originals biscuits that he's invented. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:26 | |
The pulse watch can actually determine your emotion | 0:13:26 | 0:13:29 | |
and mood, based on the tone of your voice. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:32 | |
What is the point of that, | 0:13:32 | 0:13:33 | |
given that you're wearing the watch yourself... | 0:13:33 | 0:13:36 | |
and you're doing the talking? | 0:13:36 | 0:13:39 | |
It's telling you what you already know, | 0:13:39 | 0:13:41 | |
because you are the author of that emotion. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:43 | |
Exactly, you are the cross one | 0:13:43 | 0:13:45 | |
and your watch is telling you you're cross. | 0:13:45 | 0:13:47 | |
At a funeral, you go up to someone and say, "I'm really... | 0:13:47 | 0:13:50 | |
"sad... to hear of your loss." | 0:13:50 | 0:13:52 | |
That is pretty much the most pointless thing | 0:13:55 | 0:13:58 | |
I've ever heard in my life, I think. | 0:13:58 | 0:13:59 | |
And yet, you will be doing the voice-over. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:02 | |
LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE | 0:14:02 | 0:14:07 | |
OK, it's time to play for the Will, now. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:10 | |
will.i.am is the chief creative officer of a 3D printing company. | 0:14:10 | 0:14:15 | |
What does he believe we will be able to print one day? | 0:14:15 | 0:14:18 | |
Everything, it's the truth! | 0:14:18 | 0:14:19 | |
-People, probably. -Is the right answer! | 0:14:19 | 0:14:21 | |
Yeah, well done. | 0:14:21 | 0:14:22 | |
Will said... | 0:14:24 | 0:14:26 | |
-Quite frankly, you win the Will, well done. -Thank you. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:37 | |
So, the next one's between you. Josh, what would you like to go for? | 0:14:40 | 0:14:43 | |
I'm going to go TV Legend Will. | 0:14:43 | 0:14:46 | |
Have we got a cracker for you! | 0:14:46 | 0:14:47 | |
It is final frontier busting actor William Shatner! | 0:14:47 | 0:14:51 | |
CHEERING | 0:14:51 | 0:14:52 | |
Hey! Let's have a look at his stats. | 0:14:52 | 0:14:55 | |
The Urban Dictionary has cleverly defined the word to Shatnerize. | 0:15:10 | 0:15:13 | |
Does anyone know what that means, to Shatnerize? | 0:15:13 | 0:15:16 | |
It's an optician's worst nightmare? | 0:15:16 | 0:15:17 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:15:17 | 0:15:20 | |
Oh, it's a bonus Willy here. It's a bonus Willy Wonka for that one. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:26 | |
It's marvellous but it isn't right. | 0:15:26 | 0:15:28 | |
The actual definition for Shatnerizing is to produce something | 0:15:28 | 0:15:31 | |
so bad it's good. | 0:15:31 | 0:15:34 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:15:34 | 0:15:35 | |
That said, Shatner does have his many fans. | 0:15:35 | 0:15:37 | |
In 2006 he sold a personal item for 25,000. What was it? | 0:15:37 | 0:15:42 | |
Leonard Nimoy. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:43 | |
It's a good price! Kidney? | 0:15:44 | 0:15:46 | |
Do you know what? I'm going to give you that, | 0:15:46 | 0:15:48 | |
-cos it wasn't quite his kidney, but it was a kidney stone. -Oh! | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
He began suffering unbearable backache, basically, | 0:15:51 | 0:15:53 | |
while he was filming, dropped to his knees in pain. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:55 | |
Colleagues rushed to his aid, immediately ordered an acting coach. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:59 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:15:59 | 0:16:00 | |
He passed the stone and sold it for 25,000. | 0:16:00 | 0:16:02 | |
GASPING | 0:16:02 | 0:16:04 | |
Who's buying that? | 0:16:04 | 0:16:05 | |
What would you use it as? Paperweight? | 0:16:05 | 0:16:07 | |
Probably, yes. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:08 | |
It's the human equivalent of a pearl though, isn't it? | 0:16:08 | 0:16:11 | |
-Well, now we know who bought it. -Would you wear...? | 0:16:11 | 0:16:13 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:16:13 | 0:16:15 | |
You do pass them through the... | 0:16:15 | 0:16:17 | |
-the gentleman's excuse me, do you? -Well, not if you're a lady. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:20 | |
-Come on! -The lady's excuse me. | 0:16:20 | 0:16:22 | |
I don't think you can do it by proxy. | 0:16:22 | 0:16:24 | |
Just before joining Star Trek, Shatner was in a horror film | 0:16:25 | 0:16:28 | |
called Incubus in 1965. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:30 | |
What was unusual about Incubus? | 0:16:30 | 0:16:32 | |
Was it about him passing a kidney stone? | 0:16:32 | 0:16:34 | |
Was it in a foreign language? | 0:16:34 | 0:16:36 | |
It was in a foreign language. Anybody know what foreign language? | 0:16:36 | 0:16:39 | |
-Latin. -Latvian. -No. | 0:16:39 | 0:16:40 | |
-Aramaic. -Esperanto! -Esperanto! | 0:16:40 | 0:16:41 | |
Yes. Here he is. | 0:16:41 | 0:16:43 | |
I think the phrase we're looking for is multi-multi-shitey. | 0:17:05 | 0:17:09 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:17:09 | 0:17:11 | |
Do you reckon she couldn't speak it? | 0:17:11 | 0:17:12 | |
So he just had to keep going. | 0:17:12 | 0:17:14 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:17:14 | 0:17:15 | |
I think the next line was, | 0:17:15 | 0:17:17 | |
"I don't want your body," I just want your kidney stone. | 0:17:17 | 0:17:19 | |
"I'll give you 25 grand!" | 0:17:19 | 0:17:21 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:17:21 | 0:17:22 | |
In 1966 Shatner joined the cast of Star Trek, | 0:17:22 | 0:17:25 | |
the show that was to change his life. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:27 | |
Here he is in an early episode. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:29 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:17:29 | 0:17:31 | |
He's on planet Exo III, | 0:17:31 | 0:17:33 | |
but quite frankly I don't know what planet the props department were on. | 0:17:33 | 0:17:36 | |
I might have seen the tapestry version of that as well. | 0:17:36 | 0:17:39 | |
Star Trek is famous for its hilariously poor monsters, | 0:17:39 | 0:17:42 | |
such as the Excalbian. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:45 | |
And the Gorn! | 0:17:47 | 0:17:49 | |
As in the phrase, "The production budget has all GORN!" | 0:17:49 | 0:17:54 | |
The Gorn is responsible for the cruddiest fight scene | 0:17:55 | 0:17:57 | |
ever shown on television. Let's have a look at it. | 0:17:57 | 0:18:00 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:18:22 | 0:18:23 | |
Imagine if you trained at RADA and that was your first job as an actor. | 0:18:23 | 0:18:27 | |
That WAS Sue's first job, come on! | 0:18:27 | 0:18:30 | |
That was my signature move. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:32 | |
Now it's time to play for the Will! | 0:18:32 | 0:18:35 | |
This is Mike Myers from the horror film Halloween, | 0:18:35 | 0:18:38 | |
but what is his connection to William Shatner? | 0:18:38 | 0:18:41 | |
-Nephew, he's his nephew? -No. | 0:18:41 | 0:18:42 | |
He played the Gorn. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:43 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:18:43 | 0:18:45 | |
Is that mask modelled on William Shatner's face? | 0:18:45 | 0:18:48 | |
Is the right answer! | 0:18:48 | 0:18:50 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:18:50 | 0:18:51 | |
That is an excellent, excellent, excellent answer. | 0:18:53 | 0:18:56 | |
Indeed it is. | 0:18:56 | 0:18:57 | |
It is only marginally less emotive than Shatner's real face. | 0:18:57 | 0:19:00 | |
The movie budget was so small they used the cheapest mask | 0:19:00 | 0:19:03 | |
they could find, which was the Shatner mask for 2. | 0:19:03 | 0:19:06 | |
They painted it white, teased the hair and reshaped the eyeholes. | 0:19:06 | 0:19:09 | |
It was a trick later employed by Barry Manilow 20 years later. | 0:19:09 | 0:19:13 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:19:13 | 0:19:15 | |
So, yes, that's absolutely right and so, for the Will, you get it. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:20 | |
Well done! | 0:19:20 | 0:19:21 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:19:21 | 0:19:23 | |
Time for our next round. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:27 | |
As always, the Insert Name Here fruit machine is standing by, | 0:19:27 | 0:19:30 | |
I'll spin the wheels to reveal three of my favourite Wills. | 0:19:30 | 0:19:33 | |
Our teams must match the fascinating fact to the extraordinary Will. | 0:19:33 | 0:19:37 | |
Let's spin. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:38 | |
We've got bearded bat wielder, WG Grace. | 0:19:38 | 0:19:41 | |
Bearded comedian, Billy Connolly, | 0:19:41 | 0:19:43 | |
and beardless mystic, William Blake. | 0:19:43 | 0:19:46 | |
The question is, who used to sunbathe naked in his garden with his wife | 0:19:46 | 0:19:49 | |
and recreate the story of Adam and Eve? | 0:19:49 | 0:19:52 | |
Recreate it how much... I mean up to what point? | 0:19:52 | 0:19:54 | |
The snake and everything? | 0:19:54 | 0:19:55 | |
They ate an apple and then they had to leave the garden | 0:19:55 | 0:19:58 | |
and that was when it got really embarrassing for them. | 0:19:58 | 0:20:00 | |
They don't go from start to, like, all the way through to the present day? | 0:20:00 | 0:20:04 | |
-Oh what, you mean they don't re-enact the history of time? -Yeah. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:07 | |
-In real-time? -Yeah, they just wouldn't have time, Sue. -No. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:11 | |
They wouldn't have time. | 0:20:11 | 0:20:13 | |
One of the funniest moments of my life, | 0:20:13 | 0:20:15 | |
I went to a nudist supermarket in Corsica once. | 0:20:15 | 0:20:17 | |
Don't go anywhere near the freezer section. | 0:20:17 | 0:20:19 | |
It was the funniest thing I've ever seen in my life. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:22 | |
At any point did you hear a disembodied voice saying, | 0:20:22 | 0:20:25 | |
"Unexpected item in the bagging area?" | 0:20:25 | 0:20:27 | |
LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE | 0:20:27 | 0:20:30 | |
-Billy Connolly's quite eccentric, isn't he? -Yeah. | 0:20:32 | 0:20:36 | |
So I wouldn't put it past Billy Connolly. | 0:20:36 | 0:20:38 | |
I think William Blake was quite eccentric as well. | 0:20:38 | 0:20:41 | |
And so was WG Grace, so I've managed to not narrow it down at all. | 0:20:41 | 0:20:45 | |
I don't know huge amount of Scots naturists. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:49 | |
-Oh, yeah, too cold. -The climate is not conducive. | 0:20:49 | 0:20:52 | |
But, doesn't he, he lives in California or something, doesn't he? | 0:20:52 | 0:20:57 | |
-In fact, he's the only person who lives somewhere hot. -Oh! | 0:20:57 | 0:21:00 | |
-I think it should be Billy Connolly, yeah. -So you think Billy Connolly. | 0:21:00 | 0:21:03 | |
-What do you think, guys? -Are you going to go Blake? | 0:21:03 | 0:21:05 | |
-I'd go Blake, yeah. -Then I'm going Blake. | 0:21:05 | 0:21:07 | |
-The right answer is William Blake. -Yeah! Well done. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:10 | |
APPLAUSE DROWNS SPEECH | 0:21:10 | 0:21:12 | |
According to biographer Alexander Gilchrist, Blake and his wife | 0:21:15 | 0:21:18 | |
would lie naked in their garden and recite passages from Paradise Lost. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:21 | |
Let's spin again. | 0:21:21 | 0:21:22 | |
We've got billionaire geek Bill Gates, | 0:21:22 | 0:21:25 | |
we've got super-cool actor Will Smith, | 0:21:25 | 0:21:27 | |
and former Doctor Who sidekick, Billie Piper. | 0:21:27 | 0:21:29 | |
Which of these three can solve a Rubik's Cube in under a minute? | 0:21:29 | 0:21:33 | |
You're meant to think it's Bill Gates cos he's the kind of nerd. | 0:21:33 | 0:21:37 | |
You're meant to think it's Billie Piper, aren't you? | 0:21:37 | 0:21:40 | |
Cos she was on Doctor Who. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:42 | |
So you're meant to think it's Will Smith as well. | 0:21:42 | 0:21:44 | |
I think that the idea that it could be any of the three of them | 0:21:45 | 0:21:47 | |
-is pretty much the point of the round. -Oh! | 0:21:47 | 0:21:49 | |
I don't think it would be Bill Gates. | 0:21:49 | 0:21:51 | |
It's not going to be Bill Gates. | 0:21:51 | 0:21:53 | |
-Can any of you solve a Rubik's cube? -How long did he have? | 0:21:53 | 0:21:56 | |
Well, the person did the Rubik's Cube... | 0:21:56 | 0:21:58 | |
He or she, very good. | 0:21:58 | 0:21:59 | |
-RICHARD: -Very good, Sue. | 0:21:59 | 0:22:00 | |
-They did it in under a minute. -How difficult can it be? | 0:22:00 | 0:22:03 | |
-Right. -HUGH: -Have you got any spray paint? | 0:22:03 | 0:22:06 | |
-My God, this is awful. -ALICE LAUGHS | 0:22:06 | 0:22:09 | |
I mean, what were they doing in the '80s?! | 0:22:09 | 0:22:12 | |
That's a... No, I don't like it. It freaks me out. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:15 | |
That's cos we didn't have the internet back then. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:17 | |
- No, I know. - That was our internet. | 0:22:17 | 0:22:18 | |
Let's just chuck it about. I think that's much more fun. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:21 | |
Omid, long way... | 0:22:21 | 0:22:23 | |
-Woo! -AUDIENCE OOHS | 0:22:23 | 0:22:26 | |
-Well done, Josh. -APPLAUSE | 0:22:26 | 0:22:28 | |
One hand! | 0:22:28 | 0:22:30 | |
-Ah... ALICE: -WG Grace... | 0:22:30 | 0:22:32 | |
Oh! | 0:22:32 | 0:22:33 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:22:33 | 0:22:37 | |
Confiscate it! | 0:22:37 | 0:22:39 | |
-OMID: -This is so much fun! | 0:22:39 | 0:22:41 | |
They've just said, "Stop it, Susan!" | 0:22:41 | 0:22:43 | |
If my one-handed, left-handed catch doesn't make the edit, | 0:22:44 | 0:22:47 | |
I'm walking for the rest of the series. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:49 | |
-So who are you going to plump for? -Will Smith... Maybe? | 0:22:49 | 0:22:53 | |
I don't know anything, really, about his private life. | 0:22:53 | 0:22:56 | |
I'm not sure that counts as... | 0:22:56 | 0:22:58 | |
Does that count as part of your private life? | 0:22:58 | 0:23:00 | |
I don't know that it does. | 0:23:00 | 0:23:01 | |
-I don't know. -I would go for Billie Piper. | 0:23:01 | 0:23:03 | |
-Yeah, I think it's Billie Piper. -So you're going for Billie Piper. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:06 | |
Richard's team, what do you think? | 0:23:06 | 0:23:07 | |
I think there's very few things that Will Smith can't do. | 0:23:07 | 0:23:10 | |
You're saying Will Smith? | 0:23:10 | 0:23:11 | |
Boom, boom, shake the Rubik's Cube. | 0:23:11 | 0:23:13 | |
-Yeah. -You are saying Will? -We'll say Will Smith. -Is... | 0:23:13 | 0:23:16 | |
-the right answer! -Yes! | 0:23:16 | 0:23:18 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:23:18 | 0:23:20 | |
Here is a picture of him with a Rubik's cube. | 0:23:23 | 0:23:25 | |
Not conclusive proof, just a picture, of whether he completed it. | 0:23:25 | 0:23:28 | |
But he did it on French TV | 0:23:28 | 0:23:29 | |
in around about 55 seconds, | 0:23:29 | 0:23:31 | |
which sounds impressive until you see this. | 0:23:31 | 0:23:34 | |
-Whoa! -Wow! | 0:23:40 | 0:23:42 | |
THEY ALL CHEER | 0:23:42 | 0:23:45 | |
-Wow! -Yeah. | 0:23:45 | 0:23:46 | |
That's when excitement is completely disproportionate to reality. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:51 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:23:51 | 0:23:52 | |
We're going to now spin again. | 0:23:52 | 0:23:54 | |
Now, we have got a creaking rocker, Bill Wyman, | 0:23:54 | 0:23:57 | |
mature tennis sensation Billie Jean King, | 0:23:57 | 0:24:00 | |
and ageing twanger Billy Bragg. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:02 | |
Which of these Bills has their own range of metal detectors? | 0:24:02 | 0:24:06 | |
-It could... That's Billie Jean King, is it? -In the middle, yes. | 0:24:06 | 0:24:08 | |
And that's something she's just dug up from a field in Sudbury. | 0:24:08 | 0:24:13 | |
-It feels quite Bill Wyman-y to me. -It feels Wyman-y to me as well. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:15 | |
-You think? -He's weird enough to do that. | 0:24:15 | 0:24:17 | |
-Let's go Bill Wyman. -You're going Bill Wyman? | 0:24:17 | 0:24:19 | |
Josh's team, what will you go for? | 0:24:19 | 0:24:21 | |
It's not going to be Billy Bragg, | 0:24:21 | 0:24:22 | |
cos he wouldn't do a capitalist thing | 0:24:22 | 0:24:24 | |
like launch his own range of metal detectors. | 0:24:24 | 0:24:26 | |
I think that we should go Billie Jean King. | 0:24:26 | 0:24:28 | |
-Billie Jean King. -You're going to go for Billie Jean King. | 0:24:28 | 0:24:31 | |
The correct answer is... | 0:24:31 | 0:24:33 | |
Bill Wyman! Well done. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:35 | |
-Well done. -It just felt... | 0:24:35 | 0:24:37 | |
It just felt... | 0:24:37 | 0:24:39 | |
Bill says, "My Bill Wyman signature detector is..." | 0:24:40 | 0:24:42 | |
Historically, of course, Bill went hunting for treasures half his age. | 0:24:45 | 0:24:49 | |
Well done indeed, Richard! | 0:24:49 | 0:24:52 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:24:52 | 0:24:53 | |
OK, everybody, time for the final round. Let's play Finish The Facts. | 0:24:55 | 0:24:59 | |
I'm going to start by reading out a Will-based nugget, | 0:24:59 | 0:25:01 | |
and you buzz in when you think you know how it ends. | 0:25:01 | 0:25:04 | |
So, first up, bearded cricketer WG Grace. | 0:25:04 | 0:25:07 | |
In 1866, WG Grace hit a double century at the Oval. | 0:25:07 | 0:25:11 | |
BELL Alice? | 0:25:13 | 0:25:14 | |
Getting naked with his wife | 0:25:14 | 0:25:16 | |
and re-enacting Adam and Eve in their garden. | 0:25:16 | 0:25:18 | |
You'd love that to be true, but, no, that's not right. | 0:25:18 | 0:25:20 | |
BELL Hello? | 0:25:20 | 0:25:21 | |
Well, I don't want to be a pedant, but... | 0:25:21 | 0:25:24 | |
fielding. | 0:25:24 | 0:25:25 | |
-HUGH: -Yeah. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:28 | |
That's what you do when you're a cricketer. | 0:25:28 | 0:25:30 | |
If he didn't do that, then he's a prick | 0:25:30 | 0:25:32 | |
and he needs to think about his team-mates. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:34 | |
Let's see a little bit more. | 0:25:34 | 0:25:36 | |
He celebrated that afternoon by... | 0:25:36 | 0:25:38 | |
BELL | 0:25:40 | 0:25:41 | |
Is he arrested for looking like a jihadi? | 0:25:41 | 0:25:43 | |
Is not the right answer. | 0:25:48 | 0:25:49 | |
BUZZER Lucy? | 0:25:49 | 0:25:50 | |
He won a race. | 0:25:50 | 0:25:52 | |
He did absolutely win a race, where he won the 440-yard hurdles. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:56 | |
That is absolutely true. | 0:25:58 | 0:26:00 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:26:00 | 0:26:01 | |
Well done, you've won the Will. Well done, Lucy. There you go. | 0:26:01 | 0:26:04 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:26:04 | 0:26:06 | |
Next, it's snooker star Bill Werbeniuk. | 0:26:06 | 0:26:08 | |
BELL Hugh? | 0:26:13 | 0:26:15 | |
Finally worked out how to spell his own name? | 0:26:15 | 0:26:18 | |
BUZZER | 0:26:18 | 0:26:20 | |
He was a very, very, very famous drinker, Bill Werbeniuk. | 0:26:20 | 0:26:23 | |
He actually drank 40 to 50 pints a day. | 0:26:23 | 0:26:25 | |
No, he didn't! | 0:26:25 | 0:26:26 | |
He couldn't play without drinking an enormous amount of booze. | 0:26:26 | 0:26:29 | |
-Absolutely right. -He shook all the time. | 0:26:29 | 0:26:31 | |
- He said he shook, anyway. - He'd be dead, wouldn't he?!? | 0:26:31 | 0:26:33 | |
-No. -Well, he is. -Well, currently... | 0:26:33 | 0:26:35 | |
Oh, right. | 0:26:35 | 0:26:36 | |
It was prophetic. Let's have a look, because you were right. | 0:26:38 | 0:26:40 | |
Let's carry on the sentence. He drank... | 0:26:40 | 0:26:43 | |
BUZZER | 0:26:47 | 0:26:48 | |
Is it, told Dennis Taylor he was the most beautiful woman he'd ever seen? | 0:26:48 | 0:26:52 | |
Well, he... All I will say is he didn't win. | 0:26:52 | 0:26:54 | |
-BUZZER -Bought another round? | 0:26:54 | 0:26:56 | |
I'm going to give you that. | 0:26:56 | 0:26:57 | |
He consumed an entire bottle of Scotch to drown his sorrows. | 0:26:57 | 0:27:02 | |
And the Will very much going to Richard. Well done. | 0:27:02 | 0:27:04 | |
-Is he still alive? -No. -He died? Did he die? | 0:27:04 | 0:27:07 | |
55, something like that. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:08 | |
Next up, it is 19th century | 0:27:10 | 0:27:11 | |
President of the Royal Geographical Society William Buckland. | 0:27:11 | 0:27:15 | |
-BELL AND BUZZER TOGETHER Alice. -Everything. | 0:27:18 | 0:27:20 | |
-Lucy? -At Nando's. | 0:27:20 | 0:27:22 | |
You're getting there, Alice, definitely, yeah. | 0:27:24 | 0:27:26 | |
Basically taste every animal. | 0:27:26 | 0:27:29 | |
BUZZER | 0:27:34 | 0:27:35 | |
At Nando's. | 0:27:35 | 0:27:37 | |
BELL | 0:27:38 | 0:27:39 | |
William Shatner's kidney stone. | 0:27:39 | 0:27:41 | |
I'm going to put you out of your misery. | 0:27:42 | 0:27:44 | |
It's the heart of Louis XIV. | 0:27:44 | 0:27:46 | |
-That's what I was going to say. -Grim. | 0:27:46 | 0:27:47 | |
He was at a house where it was displayed as a relic. | 0:27:47 | 0:27:50 | |
Just dived in. Um... | 0:27:50 | 0:27:51 | |
Wasn't even a buffet, was it? Unbelievable. | 0:27:53 | 0:27:56 | |
We've come to the end of the show and I can tell you that our winners | 0:27:56 | 0:27:59 | |
with the most amount of Wills, | 0:27:59 | 0:28:00 | |
it's Richard! | 0:28:00 | 0:28:02 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:28:02 | 0:28:05 | |
Mwah! | 0:28:07 | 0:28:08 | |
And now we come to the big question - who is the best Will of all time? | 0:28:08 | 0:28:12 | |
What do you reckon? The best Will of all time? | 0:28:12 | 0:28:14 | |
I really, really, really like, um... | 0:28:14 | 0:28:17 | |
Bill Turnbull. From BBC Breakfast. | 0:28:17 | 0:28:19 | |
-Yeah, very sweet. -And he's leaving BBC Breakfast this year as well. | 0:28:19 | 0:28:22 | |
I think this will be fitting testament to him. | 0:28:22 | 0:28:24 | |
Bill Turnbull is the best Will of all time! | 0:28:24 | 0:28:27 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:28:27 | 0:28:29 | |
It pains me to give this away. | 0:28:29 | 0:28:31 | |
We have a fabulous gift for our winners - | 0:28:31 | 0:28:33 | |
this DVD of William Shatner's Incubus. | 0:28:33 | 0:28:35 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:28:35 | 0:28:39 | |
There you go, I will pass that along. Oh, I want that. | 0:28:39 | 0:28:41 | |
My thanks to all of my guests, | 0:28:41 | 0:28:42 | |
special thanks to all the Wills here, there and everywhere. | 0:28:42 | 0:28:45 | |
