0:00:02 > 0:00:05- Welcome to Just A Minute. - APPLAUSE, THEME MUSIC PLAYS

0:00:11 > 0:00:17Hello, my name is Nicholas Parsons and, as the Minute Waltz fades away,

0:00:17 > 0:00:20it's my great pleasure to welcome you to this special edition

0:00:20 > 0:00:24of Just A Minute from BBC Television Centre.

0:00:24 > 0:00:28This year, Just A Minute turns 45 and, as a special birthday treat,

0:00:28 > 0:00:31we've taken over your television screens.

0:00:31 > 0:00:34Without further ado, please welcome to the show

0:00:34 > 0:00:37four highly-talented and charismatic performers.

0:00:37 > 0:00:41They are, seated on my right, Paul Merton and Shappi Khorsandi.

0:00:41 > 0:00:44And seated on my left, Hugh Bonneville and Jason Manford.

0:00:44 > 0:00:47- Please welcome all four of them. - CHEERING

0:00:51 > 0:00:54The players will try to speak for just a minute

0:00:54 > 0:00:57on a subject I give them, and they must try and do that

0:00:57 > 0:00:59without hesitation, repetition or deviation.

0:00:59 > 0:01:02The other three panellists can challenge at any time.

0:01:02 > 0:01:05If I uphold the challenge, they gain a point and take over the subject.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08If not, the person speaking gains a point and keeps the subject.

0:01:08 > 0:01:11The person speaking when the whistle goes,

0:01:11 > 0:01:13which tells us 60 seconds have elapsed,

0:01:13 > 0:01:16gains an extra point. And, by the way,

0:01:16 > 0:01:19they can repeat the subject which is on the card in front of me.

0:01:19 > 0:01:23Right, Shappi, can you talk on 60 seconds on this subject?

0:01:23 > 0:01:28When I Met My Hero. 60 seconds as usual, starting now.

0:01:28 > 0:01:32When I met my hero, Nicholas Parsons,

0:01:32 > 0:01:34it was on this very programme.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37I stammered a little, stuttered a lot

0:01:37 > 0:01:43and, like all good heroes, he was kind to me, he held my hand and said,

0:01:43 > 0:01:46"Don't worry, you'll be OK at this game, Shappi,

0:01:46 > 0:01:51"just try to talk for 60 seconds without hesitating, deviating

0:01:51 > 0:01:54"or repeating stuff that you have said already."

0:01:54 > 0:01:58Also, like all heroes, he let me down a little bit.

0:01:58 > 0:02:00I soon found out he's not

0:02:00 > 0:02:03as tall as he appears to be. LAUGHTER

0:02:03 > 0:02:05His name is not really Nicholas... BUZZ!

0:02:05 > 0:02:08- ..but Balthazar...- Paul challenged. - Repetition of Nicholas.

0:02:08 > 0:02:11Yeah, repetition of Nicholas. What height do you think I am?

0:02:11 > 0:02:14Well, I've never seen you stand up.

0:02:14 > 0:02:15Do you want me to stand up?

0:02:15 > 0:02:19I'd heard you on the radio, where you sound much taller than you are.

0:02:19 > 0:02:22- He sounds taller on the radio. - He does sound taller.

0:02:22 > 0:02:25So, according to you, you have to be about 5'11" to be on the radio?

0:02:25 > 0:02:28- No, 5'2½" - my height.- Oh, right.

0:02:28 > 0:02:32- Paul, you challenged. What was it, a repetition?- Of Nicholas.- Yes.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35Well, we can't have too much repetition of that, can we, really?

0:02:35 > 0:02:38There's probably an upper limit.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40I said that and I wish I hadn't really,

0:02:40 > 0:02:42cos it didn't get much of a reaction.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44LAUGHTER

0:02:44 > 0:02:47Paul, it is a correct challenge, and you have When I Met My Hero.

0:02:47 > 0:02:50That's the subject. 22 seconds, starting now.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52I interviewed Spike Milligan on a show I used to do

0:02:52 > 0:02:55called Room 10- ditto first figure...

0:02:55 > 0:02:58- LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE - ..and it was extraordinary for me,

0:02:58 > 0:03:01because he was a hero of mine from childhood.

0:03:01 > 0:03:05I well remember the Goon Show, the Q series that he did

0:03:05 > 0:03:07and actually to be sitting talking to him,

0:03:07 > 0:03:11listening to the various things he'd like to consign to oblivion

0:03:11 > 0:03:14was a tremendously proud moment for me in my broadcasting career.

0:03:14 > 0:03:17WHISTLE BLOWS

0:03:20 > 0:03:24So, as I said before, whoever is speaking when the whistle goes

0:03:24 > 0:03:27gains an extra point. On this occasion, it was Paul Merton.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30So, at the end of that round, he's not only in the lead,

0:03:30 > 0:03:33he's the only one who scored any points.

0:03:33 > 0:03:36Hugh Bonneville, will you begin the next round?

0:03:36 > 0:03:38- Welcome to the show.- Thank you.

0:03:38 > 0:03:41And here's something which is up your street - Costume Drama.

0:03:41 > 0:03:45I can't imagine why they've chosen it for you.

0:03:45 > 0:03:49Talk, if you can, for 60 seconds on Costume Drama, starting now.

0:03:49 > 0:03:55Picture if you will, the scene of me starting out as a young spear bearer

0:03:55 > 0:03:58at one of our more prominent theatres. One night,

0:03:58 > 0:04:02I was performing in not a single play, but in fact two.

0:04:02 > 0:04:06So there I was in the dressing room

0:04:06 > 0:04:08preparing to go... BUZZ!

0:04:08 > 0:04:11- Jason challenged.- Hesitation. - Well, no. Was it?

0:04:11 > 0:04:14- It was a hesitation. - LAUGHTER

0:04:14 > 0:04:17- There were one or two others they let go.- They were very kind!

0:04:17 > 0:04:20- I'm a jam...- It was beautiful when we all let that first hesitation go.

0:04:20 > 0:04:23- He's a jam virgin, isn't he, Nicholas?- Yes, I'm a jam virgin!

0:04:23 > 0:04:26- A jam virgin!- Yes, he's a jam virgin.- He's a jam virgin.

0:04:26 > 0:04:30- Yeah.- I think after the fourth... - LAUGHTER

0:04:30 > 0:04:31I don't know what it means, though.

0:04:31 > 0:04:34Jason, we'll give it to you. Definitely hesitation.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37A point for that, of course. There are 42 seconds available.

0:04:37 > 0:04:41- Costume Drama. - You'd better be good, sir.

0:04:41 > 0:04:44LAUGHTER

0:04:44 > 0:04:48Oh, threats. Costume Drama, starting now.

0:04:48 > 0:04:51So I was performing in these two plays at this theatre

0:04:51 > 0:04:55when, after the show, somebody said to me, "You, my friend, should be

0:04:55 > 0:04:57- "performing stand-up comedy." - BUZZ!

0:04:57 > 0:05:00- Repetition of performing? - Well listened, yes.- Very good.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02CHEERING

0:05:02 > 0:05:05- Good work! - So, Hugh, you have

0:05:05 > 0:05:07your first correct challenge and your first point,

0:05:07 > 0:05:09and you have 34 seconds

0:05:09 > 0:05:12and you still have Costume Drama, starting now.

0:05:12 > 0:05:14Yerma is a play by Lorca.

0:05:14 > 0:05:19In this rather unlikely casting, I was a flamenco dancer.

0:05:19 > 0:05:21LAUGHTER In the other auditorium,

0:05:21 > 0:05:25the Olivier, I was appearing as a Roman soldier.

0:05:25 > 0:05:27But both on the same evening.

0:05:27 > 0:05:31So, as a result, I had to finish my dance in one space,

0:05:31 > 0:05:34leg it up the stairs, flinging off my clothes

0:05:34 > 0:05:36and donning a Roman uniform. BUZZ!

0:05:36 > 0:05:39- Shappi challenged. - Was that repetition of Roman?- Yes.

0:05:39 > 0:05:44- AUDIENCE: Aw! - Aw! I wasn't even entirely sure.

0:05:44 > 0:05:48Shappi, a correct challenge. You have the subject, Costume Drama.

0:05:48 > 0:05:50Nine seconds starting now.

0:05:50 > 0:05:53Costume dramas are soap operas

0:05:53 > 0:05:55that are made palatable for middle-class people.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57If you take the plotline of Downton Abbey

0:05:57 > 0:06:01and compare it to, perhaps, EastEnders or...

0:06:01 > 0:06:04WHISTLE BLOWS, APPLAUSE

0:06:06 > 0:06:09So, Shappi Khorsandi was speaking then when the whistle went

0:06:09 > 0:06:12and gained that extra point. At the end of that round,

0:06:12 > 0:06:14she's equal with Paul Merton in the lead,

0:06:14 > 0:06:17and Hugh Bonneville and Jason Manford are equal in second place.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20Jason, we'd like you to begin the next round.

0:06:20 > 0:06:23A lovely subject Bath Time.

0:06:23 > 0:06:27Tell us something about Bath Time in this game, starting now.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30Bath Time in our house happens in the bathroom.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33It's a room dedicated for women. BUZZ!

0:06:33 > 0:06:36- Hugh challenged. - Repetition of room?

0:06:36 > 0:06:38- PAUL:- Bathroom's one word? - Bathroom's one word.

0:06:38 > 0:06:42It is, yeah, it is in our house. LAUGHTER

0:06:42 > 0:06:46You're like me, we couldn't afford hyphens when we were growing up.

0:06:46 > 0:06:50- We didn't know what a hyphen was. - No, unfortunately, Hugh,

0:06:50 > 0:06:53- it is one word.- OK. - So it was an incorrect challenge.

0:06:53 > 0:06:56Jason, you have another point. You have Bath Time.

0:06:56 > 0:06:57You have 54 seconds starting now.

0:06:57 > 0:07:01It's a female orientated place with thousands of bottles.

0:07:01 > 0:07:03Men don't even know what they're for.

0:07:03 > 0:07:05My wife could be a terrorist for all I know,

0:07:05 > 0:07:07concocting whatever going on.

0:07:07 > 0:07:10I might find myself in court in a few years, thinking,

0:07:10 > 0:07:12"I thought it was Timotei, Your Honour."

0:07:12 > 0:07:14I use the bathroom on a regular basis,

0:07:14 > 0:07:17usually once a day to brush my teeth and actually have a shower.

0:07:17 > 0:07:20I bath the children, three of them. It's very difficult

0:07:20 > 0:07:22to get three kids out... BUZZ!

0:07:22 > 0:07:24- Shappi challenged. - Sorry, three, sorry.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27- No, don't apologise.- Don't be sorry. - It's a correct challenge.- Three!

0:07:27 > 0:07:31You can only get three in the bath. Shappi, you were listening well, you came in first.

0:07:31 > 0:07:35And it's Bath Time with you now... Oh, how lovely! ..and, um...

0:07:35 > 0:07:38LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:07:40 > 0:07:44He normally has a nurse assist him.

0:07:44 > 0:07:47Oh, you wicked...!

0:07:47 > 0:07:48LAUGHTER

0:07:48 > 0:07:50I love your innocent remarks.

0:07:50 > 0:07:54They get more and more innocent every time I come on the show.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57- LAUGHTER - Shappi, you have a correct challenge.

0:07:57 > 0:07:58You have 30 seconds

0:07:58 > 0:08:01to tell us something about Bath Time, starting now.

0:08:01 > 0:08:06Bath times are a glorious time in my household. I love them.

0:08:06 > 0:08:11My son, however, I can't say he enjoys them as much as me,

0:08:11 > 0:08:14because, at four, he has no defence against my singing.

0:08:14 > 0:08:18I subject him to all sorts of vocal atrocities

0:08:18 > 0:08:21while he lies helpless in the water.

0:08:21 > 0:08:23Safely!

0:08:23 > 0:08:26I like to croon to my son! # Rubber ducky... #

0:08:26 > 0:08:28- BUZZER - Jason challenged.

0:08:28 > 0:08:31- Repetition of the word "son".- Yes.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33Earlier, you talked about your son.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36You know, he's got such an amazing personality,

0:08:36 > 0:08:39I always think there's more than one of him.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42It's a correct challenge, you have a point for that, and you have...

0:08:42 > 0:08:47- Ooh, you got in with only four seconds to go.- Oh!

0:08:47 > 0:08:50"And tonight's big prize..." "Ooh!"

0:08:50 > 0:08:52- "..it's a caravan!" - Four seconds, Jason.

0:08:52 > 0:08:55Tell us something about Bath Time, starting now.

0:08:55 > 0:08:58Blokes will use whatever product is nearest to them. My dad...

0:08:58 > 0:09:01- Paul?- Didn't we have "products" before?- Yes, you did.

0:09:01 > 0:09:05- Did I? I said "bottles" earlier on. - You did, you're right.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08- Oh, yes.- You said "bottles". Well done, I'm glad you remembered.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10LAUGHTER

0:09:10 > 0:09:13I always presumed there was somebody in another room checking on this,

0:09:13 > 0:09:17but it's genuinely just you two, isn't it?

0:09:17 > 0:09:18Not me.

0:09:18 > 0:09:20APPLAUSE

0:09:22 > 0:09:25It was "bottles", well done.

0:09:25 > 0:09:28So you have an incorrect challenge, Jason, another point to you.

0:09:28 > 0:09:31And you've still got two seconds. Bath Time, starting now.

0:09:31 > 0:09:35Conditioner is one of those things that I've...

0:09:35 > 0:09:36WHISTLE BLOWS

0:09:38 > 0:09:42So Jason Manford was speaking as the whistle went

0:09:42 > 0:09:44and gained an extra point for doing so.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Paul, the subject here is...

0:09:49 > 0:09:5060 seconds as usual, starting now.

0:09:50 > 0:09:53It was about 15 years ago,

0:09:53 > 0:09:56I came back home after a recording of Have I Got News For You

0:09:56 > 0:09:59and my then wife said, "Somebody's phoned, and there's going to be

0:09:59 > 0:10:03"eight pages in the Daily Mirror tomorrow about your habit."

0:10:03 > 0:10:06I said, "Well, what are you referring to?"

0:10:06 > 0:10:09And the account on Have I Got News For You...

0:10:09 > 0:10:11- BUZZER - I should've said Just A Minute!

0:10:11 > 0:10:16Oh! I deviated into boring stuff instead of carrying on.

0:10:16 > 0:10:17I know, I know.

0:10:17 > 0:10:20They're always repeating Have I Got News For You.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22LAUGHTER

0:10:22 > 0:10:26- And many of the shows it spawned.- Yes!

0:10:26 > 0:10:28LAUGHTER

0:10:28 > 0:10:30Jason, you have a correct challenge,

0:10:30 > 0:10:33and you have A Case Of Mistaken Identity.

0:10:33 > 0:10:3535 seconds available, starting now.

0:10:35 > 0:10:38I very rarely get recognised, I get half-recognised.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41BUZZER BLEEP! Sorry.

0:10:41 > 0:10:43LAUGHTER

0:10:43 > 0:10:47I think it's fully recognised.

0:10:47 > 0:10:50- Sorry.- It shows you what a difficult game this is.- It is.

0:10:50 > 0:10:54- But half-recognised with a hyphen? Does that not count as...?- No.

0:10:54 > 0:10:56Paul, a correct challenge.

0:10:56 > 0:10:59A Case Of Mistaken Identity, 32 seconds starting now.

0:10:59 > 0:11:02The following morning, I bought the newspaper in question

0:11:02 > 0:11:05and Paul Merson, the Arsenal footballer,

0:11:05 > 0:11:07had a large number of issues devoted to him,

0:11:07 > 0:11:10so it was A Case Of Mistaken Identity,

0:11:10 > 0:11:14in case you were wondering why I suddenly confessed to some terrible incident.

0:11:14 > 0:11:15BUZZER

0:11:15 > 0:11:17- Hugh challenged. - Repetition of "case".

0:11:17 > 0:11:19- It's on the card. - I'll get my coat.

0:11:20 > 0:11:22Yes, you can repeat the subject.

0:11:22 > 0:11:25Yes, yes, I'm learning, Nicholas, I'm learning.

0:11:25 > 0:11:29I know, but it's such a quick learning process, isn't it?

0:11:29 > 0:11:30Harsh!

0:11:30 > 0:11:32I'm afraid it was an incorrect challenge,

0:11:32 > 0:11:33so Paul has another point.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36He has 17 seconds, A Case Of Mistaken Identity, starting now.

0:11:36 > 0:11:39When Rudolf Hess arrived in Scotland

0:11:39 > 0:11:43in around about 1941, during the course of the Second World War,

0:11:43 > 0:11:46people believed at first it may not be him.

0:11:46 > 0:11:48They said, "How can we be sure

0:11:48 > 0:11:51"this is one of Hitler's deputies landing on our isles?

0:11:51 > 0:11:53"What would be his reason for parachuting into us?"

0:11:53 > 0:11:55- BUZZER - Shappi challenged.

0:11:55 > 0:11:59You breathed. That doesn't count as hesitation, does it?

0:11:59 > 0:12:02Yeah, I did breathe, I did breathe.

0:12:02 > 0:12:06I think my heart beat a couple of times as well. It put me off a bit.

0:12:06 > 0:12:10An incorrect challenge, and you have quarter of a second to go, Paul.

0:12:10 > 0:12:12A Case Of Mistaken Identity, starting now.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15- You're Winston Churchill! - WHISTLE BLOWS

0:12:20 > 0:12:22So, at the end of that round,

0:12:22 > 0:12:25Paul Merton was speaking at the whistle. He gained an extra point.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27He's now in the lead, just two ahead of Jason

0:12:27 > 0:12:32and four or five ahead of Shappi and a few more ahead of Hugh Bonneville.

0:12:32 > 0:12:33God!

0:12:33 > 0:12:36And, Shappi, we are back with you to begin.

0:12:36 > 0:12:39The subject now is...

0:12:39 > 0:12:43Tell us something about that phrase in this game, starting now.

0:12:43 > 0:12:44Unless you're a pathological liar,

0:12:44 > 0:12:48I don't see any reason to not keep it real.

0:12:48 > 0:12:51But Keeping It Real has become common parlance,

0:12:51 > 0:12:54meaning being down-to-earth.

0:12:54 > 0:12:57It's a term celebrities often use

0:12:57 > 0:12:59to pretend that becoming a millionaire

0:12:59 > 0:13:02and living far away from where they grew up doesn't matter,

0:13:02 > 0:13:05and they're still happy to get on the bus if they really had to.

0:13:05 > 0:13:09Jennifer Lopez, for example, wrote a song, Jenny From The Block,

0:13:09 > 0:13:14where she explained to the people that lived on her estate

0:13:14 > 0:13:17that, although she might have more money than she used to have,

0:13:17 > 0:13:24she's exactly the same personage as she was before. She keeps it real.

0:13:24 > 0:13:29Often, young people keep it real where they have no reason to.

0:13:29 > 0:13:31Oh, Hugh.

0:13:31 > 0:13:33LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:13:35 > 0:13:37Hugh, you challenged. Why?

0:13:37 > 0:13:40- HE CLEARS HIS THROAT - Because you told me to.

0:13:40 > 0:13:42LAUGHTER

0:13:42 > 0:13:46- It was repetition of. - No, she deviated.- She deviated.

0:13:46 > 0:13:50I made a paper plane, that's deviation.

0:13:50 > 0:13:54- Personage.- Personage. Are you not allowed to use foreign emphasis?

0:13:54 > 0:13:56- I'm not sure if that's foreign. - Not even foreign.

0:13:56 > 0:14:00It's an adulteration of English as we understand it.

0:14:00 > 0:14:03- So that is deviation. - OK, I couldn't agree more.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05- That's exactly what I thought. - LAUGHTER

0:14:05 > 0:14:07I'm glad you picked it up so quickly.

0:14:07 > 0:14:10- You're very good. - I was hot on that one.

0:14:10 > 0:14:14- It's my second language, so... - What, personage?- No.

0:14:14 > 0:14:15I'm trying to get out of it.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18Hugh, you have another point. You have 13 seconds.

0:14:18 > 0:14:21Tell us about Keeping It Real, starting now.

0:14:21 > 0:14:23The last time I was fishing,

0:14:23 > 0:14:28I had a particular reel in my bag that I thought was a fake one.

0:14:28 > 0:14:29BUZZER

0:14:29 > 0:14:30Shappi challenged.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33It's clearly not that kind of reel. That's a deviation.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35It can be whatever reel you like.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38If you had to say it according to how things were spelt,

0:14:38 > 0:14:40we'd be here all night.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42So it's that reel in this case. I apologise.

0:14:42 > 0:14:45Well, if I'd got to the end of the sentence,

0:14:45 > 0:14:48you might have discovered what I was going to say. You see?

0:14:48 > 0:14:52AUDIENCE: Ooh! You're not in character now, Hugh.

0:14:52 > 0:14:54LAUGHTER

0:14:54 > 0:14:57So, Hugh, you have six more seconds

0:14:57 > 0:15:00to tell us something about Keeping It Real, starting now.

0:15:00 > 0:15:04And my companion said, "No, I think that is a real reel."

0:15:04 > 0:15:05He was full of puns.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07WHISTLE BLOWS

0:15:07 > 0:15:12Hugh, you were speaking as the whistle went

0:15:12 > 0:15:14and you gained an extra point.

0:15:14 > 0:15:16And the situation now is...

0:15:16 > 0:15:19- you're still in fourth place. - LAUGHTER

0:15:19 > 0:15:22But you're moving forward. No, you're not, you're in third place.

0:15:22 > 0:15:26Shappi's one behind you. Hugh to begin the next round.

0:15:26 > 0:15:30Oh, a lovely subject. I don't know if it's up your street or not.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33Do you know much about him?

0:15:33 > 0:15:37If not, try in this game, starting now.

0:15:37 > 0:15:39I've always been impressed by Surrealists.

0:15:39 > 0:15:43And Salvador Dali, with his extraordinary moustache,

0:15:43 > 0:15:47is one of the foremost of this particular, er...

0:15:47 > 0:15:49- BUZZER - Ahh.- Shappi challenged.

0:15:49 > 0:15:52- Hesitation. - There was a definite hesitation.

0:15:52 > 0:15:54Shappi, you have 49 seconds

0:15:54 > 0:15:57to tell us something about Salvador Dali, starting now.

0:15:57 > 0:16:00I know a fascinating fact about Salvador Dali.

0:16:00 > 0:16:03He had a brother, also called Salvador,

0:16:03 > 0:16:05who died before he was born.

0:16:05 > 0:16:08So they called their second child Salvador.

0:16:08 > 0:16:12And when the Salvador that we know, the artist, was five,

0:16:12 > 0:16:15they took him to the first sibling's grave and said,

0:16:15 > 0:16:18"You're a reincarnation of this child."

0:16:18 > 0:16:20No wonder he went bonkers.

0:16:20 > 0:16:22BUZZER

0:16:22 > 0:16:26- Jason, you challenged.- Repetition of the "child".- The word "child", yes.

0:16:26 > 0:16:29So, Jason, well listened. You're getting the hang of this game.

0:16:29 > 0:16:33You have another correct challenge. 27 seconds are available.

0:16:33 > 0:16:34Salvador Dali, starting now.

0:16:34 > 0:16:38I've never been a big fan of Salvador Dali,

0:16:38 > 0:16:41I much prefer the work of Rolf Harris and maybe even Neil Buchanan

0:16:41 > 0:16:44off of ITV's Art Attack from when I was a child.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47I don't really like art in general.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49I think most of it is a tiny bit pretentious.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52I occasionally put something on the wall,

0:16:52 > 0:16:53a picture, maybe, that a child...

0:16:53 > 0:16:55- BUZZER - Paul challenged.

0:16:55 > 0:16:57We're not really on the subject of Salvador Dali.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00We moved off, we haven't mentioned Salvador for some time.

0:17:00 > 0:17:01We've had Rolf Harris.

0:17:01 > 0:17:04I think you're right, that's a correct challenge.

0:17:04 > 0:17:07You've gone off into general art and not Dali in particular.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09I was going to come back to Salvador Dali,

0:17:09 > 0:17:12because I've got a few facts about him, but, er...

0:17:12 > 0:17:16It's a shame this show isn't called Just An Hour, isn't it?

0:17:16 > 0:17:19- LAUGHTER - It is a shame. It's a shame.

0:17:19 > 0:17:22We give the benefit of the doubt to Paul. If I can redress the balance,

0:17:22 > 0:17:25- I'll give you the benefit of the doubt some time.- Thank you.

0:17:25 > 0:17:28- There are eight seconds still, Paul. - How many?- Eight.- Oh, right.

0:17:28 > 0:17:31Salvador Dali, starting now.

0:17:31 > 0:17:33Salvador Dali was hired by Alfred Hitchcock

0:17:33 > 0:17:36to do the dream sequences for Spellbound,

0:17:36 > 0:17:37and what a fantastic movie it was.

0:17:37 > 0:17:39Salvador got hold of the huge concept...

0:17:39 > 0:17:42WHISTLE BLOWS

0:17:44 > 0:17:48So Paul Merton was speaking at the whistle and gained an extra point.

0:17:48 > 0:17:51And he has increased his lead at the end of the round.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54Jason Manford's following just a few points behind.

0:17:54 > 0:17:57Equal in third place are Hugh Bonneville and Shappi Khorsandi.

0:17:57 > 0:18:01And, Jason, we're back with you to begin. The subject now is...

0:18:02 > 0:18:0460 seconds as usual, starting now.

0:18:04 > 0:18:07I'm not a massive fan of the cinema. I don't like sharing the experience.

0:18:07 > 0:18:08BUZZER

0:18:08 > 0:18:10- Paul?- You wouldn't like Spellbound -

0:18:10 > 0:18:13it's got Salvador Dali in it and it's also a film,

0:18:13 > 0:18:15so don't go and see that whatever you do.

0:18:15 > 0:18:17Handing out tips.

0:18:17 > 0:18:21- It was quite good. - It wasn't that good, was it?

0:18:21 > 0:18:25- It wasn't worth a bonus point. - I said it as if it was good.

0:18:25 > 0:18:28Jason. An incorrect challenge. You still have the subject.

0:18:28 > 0:18:3156 seconds available, starting now.

0:18:31 > 0:18:34The thing with the cinema is it's a lot of people,

0:18:34 > 0:18:37and I don't really enjoy the whole experience

0:18:37 > 0:18:40of sharing this thing on the screen. What I find...

0:18:40 > 0:18:41BUZZER

0:18:41 > 0:18:45Sorry, but you said "sharing". You didn't like sharing earlier.

0:18:45 > 0:18:47- Yes, you didn't like sharing before.- I still don't.

0:18:47 > 0:18:50- LAUGHTER - If you don't like going to cinema

0:18:50 > 0:18:52and sharing the experience with those people there,

0:18:52 > 0:18:54how do you feel about this lot here?

0:18:54 > 0:18:57I don't like it. You're right. LAUGHTER

0:19:01 > 0:19:03Shappi, you had a correct challenge.

0:19:03 > 0:19:07You have the subject of Going To The Cinema. 46 seconds, starting now.

0:19:07 > 0:19:09I don't like going to the cinema,

0:19:09 > 0:19:13because it makes me into the type of person that I don't wish to be.

0:19:13 > 0:19:17- I become the person that hates tall people...- (Person, person.)

0:19:17 > 0:19:18BUZZER

0:19:18 > 0:19:22- Hugh, you challenged.- Repetition of "person".- Well listened.

0:19:22 > 0:19:25Oh, really? Yeah! APPLAUSE

0:19:25 > 0:19:27I'm really into persons this evening.

0:19:27 > 0:19:31Yes, a repetition of "person". Well listened, Hugh. You have 36 seconds.

0:19:31 > 0:19:34Tell us something about Going To The Cinema, starting now.

0:19:34 > 0:19:37One of my earliest memories of going to the cinema

0:19:37 > 0:19:39was the ABC in Lewisham on the high road there.

0:19:39 > 0:19:43And, this particular occasion, there was a James Bond film.

0:19:43 > 0:19:47I was always fascinated by this particular brand of movie.

0:19:47 > 0:19:50It was an A, as far as I was concerned,

0:19:50 > 0:19:53which meant that my elder brothers and sisters

0:19:53 > 0:19:54could in fact take me with them.

0:19:54 > 0:19:57I was about eight at the time, you see,

0:19:57 > 0:19:59and they said that they couldn't take me,

0:19:59 > 0:20:02because it was in fact a double version of that letter that I mentioned.

0:20:02 > 0:20:07And in the old system, of course, it meant you had to be 14 and over.

0:20:07 > 0:20:09And my siblings were not prepared to...

0:20:09 > 0:20:11WHISTLE BLOWS

0:20:11 > 0:20:15APPLAUSE

0:20:19 > 0:20:21So Hugh Bonneville kept going until the whistle went,

0:20:21 > 0:20:23and gained an extra point, and he's moved forward.

0:20:23 > 0:20:25He's still in third place, but he's moved.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28There was only one point between them all.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31Paul, the subject:

0:20:31 > 0:20:34Tell us something about that fascinating subject,

0:20:34 > 0:20:35starting now.

0:20:35 > 0:20:39Candidates for the Fifth Beatle over the years have included Brian Epstein, the manager,

0:20:39 > 0:20:41and George Martin, the producer.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44There was a gentleman call Stephen - no, Stuart Sutcliffe,

0:20:44 > 0:20:49who was also in the Beatles when they played Hamburg, so he has a claim to that title.

0:20:49 > 0:20:51The fifth Beatle.

0:20:51 > 0:20:55If we look at the people that were instrumental in the success,

0:20:55 > 0:20:58and no pun intended, of the aforementioned pop beat combo,

0:20:58 > 0:21:02they were indeed lucky with the people they were surrounded by.

0:21:02 > 0:21:06Of course there was an innate talent within the quartet themselves,

0:21:06 > 0:21:10but, without the right handling and management, that alone isn't enough.

0:21:10 > 0:21:15When we look at the magnificent recorded legacy of those four guys from Liverpool,

0:21:15 > 0:21:20we realise that we were listening to great musical genius.

0:21:20 > 0:21:22- BUZZER - Shappi, you challenged.

0:21:22 > 0:21:25- I wouldn't say genius. I'm not a massive fan.- Of the Beatles?!

0:21:25 > 0:21:28LAUGHTER

0:21:28 > 0:21:30Oh!

0:21:30 > 0:21:32You're not touring Liverpool any time soon, are you?

0:21:36 > 0:21:39I didn't realise it was a controversial stance to take,

0:21:39 > 0:21:41that the Beatles were quite good at pop songs(!)

0:21:41 > 0:21:45No, I think everybody would accept the Beatles... I mean, they are...

0:21:45 > 0:21:46I'm not saying I don't accept them,

0:21:46 > 0:21:49I'm not saying that they should be struck off history,

0:21:49 > 0:21:53but it's just the way Paul was saying "their genius",

0:21:53 > 0:21:57I felt like he was speaking for everyone in the room,

0:21:57 > 0:22:01and I just wanted to say that I enjoy bopping to them in my kitchen,

0:22:01 > 0:22:06but I don't think they were genii. LAUGHTER

0:22:06 > 0:22:14I think that was a long, involved, and rather ridiculous explanation of why you challenged.

0:22:14 > 0:22:16So, Shappi, Paul had an incorrect challenge.

0:22:16 > 0:22:19He keeps the subject, The Fifth Beatle.

0:22:19 > 0:22:2115 seconds, Paul, starting now.

0:22:21 > 0:22:23If we look at the legacy of that group...

0:22:23 > 0:22:26- BUZZER - Yes, Jason? - Repetition of legacy.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30- You had the legacy before.- It was a long time ago, I couldn't remember.

0:22:30 > 0:22:32So, Jason, a correct challenge. 13 seconds still available.

0:22:32 > 0:22:35The Fifth Beatle, starting now.

0:22:35 > 0:22:39John, Paul, Ringo, George, they were the four.

0:22:39 > 0:22:41Who is the Fifth Beatle?

0:22:41 > 0:22:44Pete? Michael? Johnny? Phil? BUZZER

0:22:44 > 0:22:47- Who was Michael?- Michael...erm...

0:22:47 > 0:22:52He was like a... He was a neighbour of John Lennon's.

0:22:52 > 0:22:55- He was a roadie. Wasn't he a roadie? - It wasn't Michael, anyway.

0:22:55 > 0:22:57- I know it wasn't. - So, Paul, you have another point

0:22:57 > 0:23:01and you have three seconds to go on The Fifth Beatle, starting now.

0:23:01 > 0:23:04What a load of rubbish, they couldn't write a decent hit between them!

0:23:04 > 0:23:07I don't know why people listened to the Beatles, they were nonsense!

0:23:07 > 0:23:09WHISTLE

0:23:09 > 0:23:12APPLAUSE

0:23:12 > 0:23:16So Paul Merton was speaking to the whistle and gained an extra point.

0:23:16 > 0:23:20He's increased his lead at the end of that round, ahead of Jason Manford

0:23:20 > 0:23:23and then it's Hugh Bonneville and Shappi Khorsandi in that order.

0:23:23 > 0:23:25Shappi, we'd like you to begin the next round.

0:23:25 > 0:23:28The subject here is:

0:23:28 > 0:23:31Tell us something about that subject in this game, starting now.

0:23:31 > 0:23:34Cats or dogs? I have both.

0:23:34 > 0:23:38My cat keeps it real, my dog is a drama queen.

0:23:38 > 0:23:42People say to me, "Which one do you prefer?"

0:23:42 > 0:23:46I say, "I love both of them equally as I cuddle my cat and kick the dog."

0:23:46 > 0:23:48I do enjoy the dog.

0:23:48 > 0:23:52He's a mixed breed, although he prefers "dual heritage".

0:23:52 > 0:23:56What I enjoy about cats is that they're independent.

0:23:56 > 0:23:59My cat will go roaming for days on end,

0:23:59 > 0:24:05stagger through the cat flap at all hours, eyes all kaleidoscopey

0:24:05 > 0:24:09and I will dare to ask where madam has been.

0:24:09 > 0:24:14And, like a recalcitrant teenager, she'll go, "What? I was out. What of it?"

0:24:14 > 0:24:17And march off to her room and listen to her music. BUZZER

0:24:17 > 0:24:19- Paul's challenge. - Repetition of "what".

0:24:19 > 0:24:23- Yes.- I'm surprised no-one came in quicker.- No.

0:24:23 > 0:24:25Paul, you got in with 14 seconds...

0:24:25 > 0:24:27Are we letting the fact that she kicks her dog go?

0:24:27 > 0:24:31The dog's a Beatles fan and you've never really forgiven him, have you?

0:24:31 > 0:24:35Eleanor Rigby, go on, get out of there.

0:24:35 > 0:24:38I'd have given it to you on that because I think it's deviation.

0:24:38 > 0:24:43- OK.- Paul, correct challenge. 14 seconds. Cats or dogs, starting now.

0:24:43 > 0:24:46Well, if we look at the various characters

0:24:46 > 0:24:49of two species of animals, we see that cats are independent

0:24:49 > 0:24:52and dogs help the police, so I think it's very obvious

0:24:52 > 0:24:57out of these two particular kinds of creature which one I prefer.

0:24:57 > 0:25:00- It is... - WHISTLE

0:25:00 > 0:25:06APPLAUSE

0:25:06 > 0:25:09- We enjoy it when you slip into one of your character voices. - Yes, it worried me.

0:25:09 > 0:25:11I don't know who that sounded like.

0:25:11 > 0:25:14It sounded a little bit like Alec Guinness.

0:25:14 > 0:25:15- Yes.- Hmm.

0:25:15 > 0:25:18LAUGHTER

0:25:18 > 0:25:21Speaking till the whistle went gained you that extra point,

0:25:21 > 0:25:23you have increased your lead,

0:25:23 > 0:25:25and, Hugh Bonneville, you to begin. The subject matter...

0:25:25 > 0:25:27BELL TINKLES

0:25:27 > 0:25:28AUDIENCE GROANS

0:25:28 > 0:25:33It's a little bell which tells me we have time for only one more round.

0:25:33 > 0:25:37- AUDIENCE GROANS - Oh, you're lovely!

0:25:37 > 0:25:42Right, one more round. Let me give you the situation as we go into the final round.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45Paul Merton is still in the lead, about four or five points ahead of Jason Manford,

0:25:45 > 0:25:47who's in a very strong second place.

0:25:47 > 0:25:50Then it's Hugh Bonneville and Shappi Khorsandi in that order,

0:25:50 > 0:25:54and, Hugh Bonneville, we're back with you to begin.

0:25:54 > 0:25:55And the subject is the local pub.

0:25:55 > 0:25:59Tell us something about that in this game, starting now.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01The local pub, I think,

0:26:01 > 0:26:05is a state of mind as much as it is a physical entity.

0:26:05 > 0:26:08The first time I entered my local pub, I was short-changed.

0:26:08 > 0:26:10This happened not once,

0:26:10 > 0:26:14but three times in the period that the landlord owned the property.

0:26:14 > 0:26:19I'm happy to say that he's moved on, hopefully to a pub in the sky.

0:26:19 > 0:26:24But, in fact, now the pub is a beautiful environment to visit, where I live.

0:26:24 > 0:26:27- It is run by... - BUZZER...

0:26:27 > 0:26:31- Jason, you challenged first. - Hesitation.

0:26:31 > 0:26:35- Yes, we call that hesitation. You went for 32 seconds, though.- Good.

0:26:35 > 0:26:37- You'll get a point for that. - Thank you!

0:26:37 > 0:26:40APPLAUSE

0:26:40 > 0:26:43So, Jason, direct challenge, hesitation,

0:26:43 > 0:26:46and you have 28 seconds still available.

0:26:46 > 0:26:48The local pub, starting now.

0:26:48 > 0:26:53My local pub is the roughest place you've ever been to in your life.

0:26:53 > 0:26:57It's on the corner of an estate. A lawless place with, er...

0:26:57 > 0:26:58BUZZER

0:26:58 > 0:27:00- Yes, Shappi?- "With, er..."

0:27:00 > 0:27:02With a hesitation, yes.

0:27:02 > 0:27:05So, Shappi, we're going to hear from you as well on "the local pub",
