0:00:31 > 0:00:35This programme contains some strong language.

0:00:35 > 0:00:38Hello and welcome to Mock The Week. I'm Dara O Briain.

0:00:38 > 0:00:39Joining me this week are Andy Parsons,

0:00:39 > 0:00:41Sara Pascoe and Ed Gamble,

0:00:41 > 0:00:44Nathan Caton, Hugh Dennis and Ed Byrne.

0:00:44 > 0:00:47CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:00:51 > 0:00:53We start with the round called Picture of the Week.

0:00:53 > 0:00:55I show the panel a topical image

0:00:55 > 0:00:57and ask them to tell me what's happening.

0:00:57 > 0:01:00Here's a picture of the new Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn.

0:01:00 > 0:01:01So, what's going on here?

0:01:01 > 0:01:04Has he been sleeping in the bin on the right?

0:01:05 > 0:01:08It could be, "The oldest delivery boy in the world

0:01:08 > 0:01:11"still hasn't figured out how to hold a pizza correctly."

0:01:13 > 0:01:17I suspect he's dressed up for his first meeting with the Queen.

0:01:18 > 0:01:21Is it just simply "First day at big school"?

0:01:23 > 0:01:24Is it "Breaking news,

0:01:24 > 0:01:27"Marks & Spencer merge with Sports Direct"?

0:01:29 > 0:01:32I think, possibly, it's page three of the Socialist Worker.

0:01:34 > 0:01:36I'm glad you told me that was Jeremy Corbyn.

0:01:36 > 0:01:41For a second I was worried that's what Charlie Brown looks like now...

0:01:41 > 0:01:44LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:01:45 > 0:01:49..and that folder actually contains Snoopy's ashes.

0:01:49 > 0:01:50AUDIENCE EXCLAIMS

0:01:50 > 0:01:51- Snoopy. - ANDY: Too much now.

0:01:51 > 0:01:53Please, please. Snoopy is long dead.

0:01:53 > 0:01:58- SARA:- I think it's "66-year-old legend's still got it going on."

0:01:58 > 0:02:01I reckon the owners of number 48 are probably very proud

0:02:01 > 0:02:05to be able to show off their garden like that, though.

0:02:05 > 0:02:08They're sitting watching this going, "It was a Tuesday.

0:02:08 > 0:02:11"It was a Tuesday! The bins are collected on a Tuesday."

0:02:11 > 0:02:14I bet they were more surprised than anyone that one of their gnomes

0:02:14 > 0:02:16just came to life and walked off.

0:02:16 > 0:02:18LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:02:20 > 0:02:23Is he such a dedicated socialist

0:02:23 > 0:02:25that he refuses to look to the right

0:02:25 > 0:02:29even though that's the direction he is in fact walking in?

0:02:34 > 0:02:37I'm sorry, we've all worn bad T-shirts and shorts,

0:02:37 > 0:02:39it's just socks with the trainers

0:02:39 > 0:02:41is the only genuinely offensive thing there.

0:02:41 > 0:02:43- Yeah.- And not using cocoa butter.

0:02:43 > 0:02:44And not using cocoa butter?

0:02:44 > 0:02:48- Yeah, his legs are... - He's a 66-year-old man!- So?

0:02:48 > 0:02:51There's no age restriction on cocoa butter.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54I'm really 55.

0:02:55 > 0:02:58It is Jeremy Corbyn, who was elected leader of the Labour Party

0:02:58 > 0:03:03on Saturday, winning a landslide majority of 59.5% of the vote.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06So, how are we doing - the new era under Corbyn?

0:03:06 > 0:03:08It's exciting. It's really exciting.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11I'm so happy and I'm not going to let you guys ruin it for me.

0:03:11 > 0:03:12I'm not going to.

0:03:12 > 0:03:14That's reasonable, isn't it?

0:03:14 > 0:03:17There's nothing weird about Jeremy Corbyn at all, is there?

0:03:17 > 0:03:19- HUGH:- It's right, though, isn't it?

0:03:19 > 0:03:21In an era of identikit politicians,

0:03:21 > 0:03:23it is about time we had a leader of a major party

0:03:23 > 0:03:27who looks like he should be advertising canal boat holidays.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30Look, I'm not surprised that he won,

0:03:30 > 0:03:32I'm surprised that he won by such a large majority.

0:03:32 > 0:03:34Like, he got so many votes,

0:03:34 > 0:03:36like, even the organisers of the Qatar World Cup were going,

0:03:36 > 0:03:39"How the hell did he do that?"

0:03:39 > 0:03:43His first congratulation call was from Sepp Blatter...

0:03:43 > 0:03:46I feel really sorry for him, cos even though he's actually won this,

0:03:46 > 0:03:48people in Labour don't even seem to like him.

0:03:48 > 0:03:49I think it's because he is so good.

0:03:49 > 0:03:53He's a saint, he's so pure, he's so principled.

0:03:53 > 0:03:57He collects pictures of drain covers.

0:03:57 > 0:03:58OK. Is that a thing?

0:03:58 > 0:04:00He is the nerd of the nerds.

0:04:00 > 0:04:02Obviously he's not the only MP

0:04:02 > 0:04:06who's got a large collection of pictures of manholes,

0:04:06 > 0:04:08- but he's... - LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:04:12 > 0:04:15Also the weird thing is he's an Arsenal supporter,

0:04:15 > 0:04:16he goes to loads of matches...

0:04:16 > 0:04:19That comes as no surprise, does it, Dara?

0:04:19 > 0:04:21Yes, well, he lives in Islington, for God's sake...

0:04:21 > 0:04:23Well, not so much that,

0:04:23 > 0:04:25but it's a bunch of underperforming reds

0:04:25 > 0:04:28who are hooked on the outmoded concepts

0:04:28 > 0:04:29of a foreign intellectual

0:04:29 > 0:04:32who, when they tried to put a team together this year,

0:04:32 > 0:04:34couldn't get anybody decent to join them.

0:04:36 > 0:04:37SOME CHEERS FROM AUDIENCE

0:04:41 > 0:04:44- That is funny.- That is a weapon's grade analogy there.

0:04:47 > 0:04:50No, it's actually... How did Cameron react?

0:04:50 > 0:04:52Did you see Cameron's reaction to it?

0:04:52 > 0:04:54- Security is the key word. - There's a lot about security.

0:04:54 > 0:04:58He sent out this tweet, effectively...

0:04:58 > 0:05:00DARA READS TWEET

0:05:03 > 0:05:05"..YOUR family's security."

0:05:07 > 0:05:09"Not my family. My family are fine.

0:05:09 > 0:05:11"We live in a big house with two policemen out the front.

0:05:11 > 0:05:13"But your family? Where are they now?

0:05:13 > 0:05:14"Did you think that for a second?

0:05:14 > 0:05:17"Look around, can you see them? No, I can't see them either.

0:05:17 > 0:05:21"He's climbing the window and stolen them. That's what he's doing.

0:05:21 > 0:05:22"Your family are gone, my friend,

0:05:22 > 0:05:26"and I have a unique set of skills, so return my family or I will..."

0:05:26 > 0:05:28Oh, whatever Liam Neeson does.

0:05:29 > 0:05:34You see that tweet and then you see a picture of Jeremy Corbyn,

0:05:34 > 0:05:37supposedly the most dangerous man in Britain.

0:05:37 > 0:05:41This is the man who's a 66-year-old beige pensioner

0:05:41 > 0:05:43who's a pacifist, vegan cyclist.

0:05:43 > 0:05:45The most dangerous man in Britain?

0:05:45 > 0:05:48He's in trouble if there's a lorry turning left

0:05:48 > 0:05:50and he hasn't had his B12 supplements.

0:05:53 > 0:05:56Do you think the subtext is the Labour Party now is a threat

0:05:56 > 0:05:59to our national security, economic security and your family's security

0:05:59 > 0:06:01because now they've become completely unelectable,

0:06:01 > 0:06:04we Tories are going to go hog wild on this country?

0:06:05 > 0:06:07It feels like Cameron's got the Labour Party mixed up

0:06:07 > 0:06:09with the bad guys from Transformers.

0:06:10 > 0:06:12Who are the bad guys in Transformers?

0:06:12 > 0:06:14- ROBOTIC VOICE:- The Deceptacons.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20APPLAUSE

0:06:20 > 0:06:21The Decepticles?

0:06:21 > 0:06:23The Decepticles.

0:06:23 > 0:06:26I think we've just spotted the nerd of the nerd of the nerds.

0:06:26 > 0:06:29I think it would be exciting. I was saying to my friend,

0:06:29 > 0:06:31"Imagine if we had a genuinely pacifist Prime Minister -

0:06:31 > 0:06:33"he'd spend the defence budget on education,

0:06:33 > 0:06:35"he'd put Trident on eBay, like, he'd just...

0:06:35 > 0:06:36"It'd be so brilliant."

0:06:36 > 0:06:39My friend was like, "Yeah. Then what about if Britain was invaded

0:06:39 > 0:06:42"and everyone's family is killed?"

0:06:42 > 0:06:44"Yeah, he probably won't get re-elected."

0:06:44 > 0:06:46LAUGHTER

0:06:46 > 0:06:48But it's a really great thing.

0:06:48 > 0:06:49If you did buy Trident on eBay,

0:06:49 > 0:06:50I think it's not a bad idea,

0:06:50 > 0:06:52but if you do, if you are buying it...

0:06:52 > 0:06:54come and collect it.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56It's not the kind of thing you want delivered.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06I actually agree with Corbyn about the whole Trident stuff,

0:07:06 > 0:07:07because I'm not a massive fan of Trident.

0:07:07 > 0:07:10I'm more of an Airwaves person myself.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16What has been the response to the new Shadow Cabinet?

0:07:16 > 0:07:18I was very excited by the Shadow Cabinet.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20- No way(!)- Yes.

0:07:20 > 0:07:22Lots of people that I'd never heard of before,

0:07:22 > 0:07:24and the minute I heard of them, I loved them.

0:07:24 > 0:07:28It made me... Jeremy Corbyn's Shadow Cabinet made me understand

0:07:28 > 0:07:30why people play Premiership Football Manager.

0:07:32 > 0:07:36It's going to be an amazing team. Play too much on the left...

0:07:36 > 0:07:41But they share the ball, including with the other team.

0:07:41 > 0:07:43But their goals are unattainable.

0:07:45 > 0:07:48APPLAUSE

0:07:48 > 0:07:51Sorry, I just had a moment where I sounded exactly like my father

0:07:51 > 0:07:52and I need to shake that off.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57- Yeah, and also, it has twins. - The Eagle twins.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59HUGH: Oh, I love this.

0:07:59 > 0:08:01This is in defence, isn't it?

0:08:01 > 0:08:02Appointed Angela Eagle

0:08:02 > 0:08:05and at the same time appointed Lord Falconer,

0:08:05 > 0:08:10and you wonder if Lord Falconer...is there to control Angela Eagle.

0:08:10 > 0:08:11"Here, Angela."

0:08:13 > 0:08:14DARA LAUGHS

0:08:16 > 0:08:18"And the other twin, now I've got both of them."

0:08:18 > 0:08:20Yes, in other political news,

0:08:20 > 0:08:23- who did David Cameron manage to offend this week?- Everyone.

0:08:24 > 0:08:27Just by being him.

0:08:27 > 0:08:31Sneaking up behind them and going, ("Where's your family now?")

0:08:31 > 0:08:33"Mum? Mum?"

0:08:33 > 0:08:35He offended Yorkshire, didn't he?

0:08:35 > 0:08:37He said he knew they hated everybody else,

0:08:37 > 0:08:40didn't know they hated each other more,

0:08:40 > 0:08:42and he said this when he was going to watch

0:08:42 > 0:08:46England against Australia in a one-day cricket match at Headingley.

0:08:46 > 0:08:49Or as he likes to call it, the home of Aston Villa.

0:08:51 > 0:08:54You know that people from Yorkshire hated everyone outside of Yorkshire.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56First of all, they're quite charming.

0:08:56 > 0:08:57Is that a thing in this country?

0:08:57 > 0:09:00They have a massive rivalry, but also within Yorkshire

0:09:00 > 0:09:02they have a rivalry, because it's all split up.

0:09:02 > 0:09:03North, south, east and west,

0:09:03 > 0:09:06so people from Leeds hate people from London

0:09:06 > 0:09:07cos they regard them as southern.

0:09:07 > 0:09:09People from Leeds hate people from Sheffield

0:09:09 > 0:09:11cos they regard them as southern.

0:09:11 > 0:09:14People from Leeds hate people in Beeston,

0:09:14 > 0:09:16cos although it's Leeds, it's south Leeds.

0:09:16 > 0:09:19LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:09:23 > 0:09:26To be honest, I'm not really interested in this story.

0:09:26 > 0:09:28LAUGHTER

0:09:30 > 0:09:32A question I've been asking myself

0:09:32 > 0:09:34since the beginning of this

0:09:34 > 0:09:36is does Angela Eagle tweet?

0:09:39 > 0:09:40Or does she just go...

0:09:40 > 0:09:42HE SCREECHES

0:09:45 > 0:09:51Check out her account and it's just hundreds of "A-H-H-H-H-H-H-H",

0:09:51 > 0:09:53and then, "A mouse!"

0:09:55 > 0:09:58Yorkshire does have an excellent accent though.

0:09:58 > 0:10:00One of the finest accent jokes in the world

0:10:00 > 0:10:02is one about the Yorkshireman whose dog dies and he goes to

0:10:02 > 0:10:05a jewellers and says, "I want a statue made of me dog."

0:10:05 > 0:10:08And the jeweller says, "Do you want it eighteen carat?"

0:10:08 > 0:10:10And he says, "No, I want it chewing bone."

0:10:14 > 0:10:15It's a great joke.

0:10:15 > 0:10:19Yeah, it's not mine, I didn't write it. Classic joke.

0:10:19 > 0:10:21- YORKSHIRE ACCENT: - A Yorkshireman has invented

0:10:21 > 0:10:23a replacement for antibiotics.

0:10:23 > 0:10:24Uncle-biotics.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31No wonder they hate each other

0:10:31 > 0:10:33if they're telling each other those jokes!

0:10:33 > 0:10:36"You've ruined Christmas again, Dad!"

0:10:37 > 0:10:38OK, at the end of that round,

0:10:38 > 0:10:40the points go to Ed, Hugh and Nathan.

0:10:40 > 0:10:42APPLAUSE

0:10:46 > 0:10:47Now we play a round called

0:10:47 > 0:10:49You've Got To Be Corbyn It To Win It.

0:10:49 > 0:10:52AUDIENCE GROANS

0:10:52 > 0:10:54This game involves Nathan Caton and Ed Gamble,

0:10:54 > 0:10:57so if you could make your way to the performance area, please.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00This round is a stand-up challenge, I launch the Wheel of News

0:11:00 > 0:11:01and wherever it chooses to stop,

0:11:01 > 0:11:04one of our performers must step forward and talk about that subject.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06OK, here we go, let's spin the wheel.

0:11:07 > 0:11:10And the first topic is home life.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13- Nathan. - Yeah, I can talk about home life.

0:11:13 > 0:11:17I, eh, still live at home with my mum, still.

0:11:17 > 0:11:19Thanks for the judgmental silence.

0:11:21 > 0:11:24Yeah, I live at home, my mates give me the most stick for it,

0:11:24 > 0:11:27cos I'm the last one in my group of friends who still lives at home

0:11:27 > 0:11:29with my mum, they've all moved out.

0:11:29 > 0:11:31So they see me as a mummy's boy, and every time they see me,

0:11:31 > 0:11:33"Nathan, what's wrong with you, man?

0:11:33 > 0:11:36"Why you still at your mum's, why you still at your mum's?"

0:11:36 > 0:11:38It's like, "I live in west London, have you seen house prices?

0:11:38 > 0:11:40"I'm not going anywhere, man."

0:11:40 > 0:11:42If anything, I'm looking at my mum thinking,

0:11:42 > 0:11:44"When are YOU going to bloody leave?

0:11:46 > 0:11:48"Clinging on, let it go, woman."

0:11:51 > 0:11:54She's going to slap the black off me when she sees this.

0:11:56 > 0:11:58See, I like peace and quiet. Although to be honest,

0:11:58 > 0:12:00at home I'm not getting a lot of peace and quiet.

0:12:00 > 0:12:02Mainly because of my mum and my stepdad,

0:12:02 > 0:12:08they got married quite recently, and, erm, I'm happy for my mum.

0:12:08 > 0:12:10She's found happiness, she deserves it.

0:12:10 > 0:12:13However, at the moment they're going through that honeymoon phase,

0:12:13 > 0:12:15where they're having sex all the time.

0:12:15 > 0:12:18Yeah, it is bloody disturbing, man.

0:12:18 > 0:12:20Cos my bedroom is, like, right next door,

0:12:20 > 0:12:22so every time they do it, I hear everything.

0:12:22 > 0:12:25A few Saturdays ago, right, it's late at night,

0:12:25 > 0:12:29I'm about to go to sleep, from next door I can hear my stepdad going,

0:12:29 > 0:12:33CARIBBEAN ACCENT: "Oh, yes, oh, yes, oh, yes, oh, yes, oh, Lord, oh, Lord,

0:12:33 > 0:12:36"say something nasty, say something nasty..."

0:12:36 > 0:12:37LAUGHTER

0:12:37 > 0:12:40So I screamed out, "You're not my real dad!"

0:12:42 > 0:12:45Thank you very much, Nathan Caton.

0:12:47 > 0:12:49OK, that leaves us with Ed,

0:12:49 > 0:12:52let's see what topic you've been left with.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54And the topic is diet.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57LAUGHTER

0:12:57 > 0:13:00I hope this isn't just a hint that I need to lose weight.

0:13:00 > 0:13:02Cos I've lost quite a lot of weight recently,

0:13:02 > 0:13:05about 6st in the last three years.

0:13:05 > 0:13:06SILENCE

0:13:06 > 0:13:08Cheers, guys, thanks...(!)

0:13:08 > 0:13:09CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:13:09 > 0:13:12Too late, you went with the British reaction, thank you very much.

0:13:12 > 0:13:14"Couldn't give a shit, mate, carry on.

0:13:14 > 0:13:17"Stop showing off, we don't want to hear about it."

0:13:17 > 0:13:20Found myself in a bit of a nightmare situation recently,

0:13:20 > 0:13:22I went to the Middle East to do some gigs.

0:13:22 > 0:13:26Now, that bit was nice, lovely, but they put you up in a hotel

0:13:26 > 0:13:28where the food is all-you-can-eat buffets

0:13:28 > 0:13:30three times a day for ten days.

0:13:30 > 0:13:33This is a nightmare scenario for me

0:13:33 > 0:13:36because I cannot be trusted at an all-you-can-eat buffet.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38Sometimes I don't even remember the buffet bit,

0:13:38 > 0:13:41all I remember is picking up a plate and I wake up six hours later

0:13:41 > 0:13:44covered in rice and sauce.

0:13:44 > 0:13:46I can't theme a buffet either.

0:13:46 > 0:13:48I won't pick up a plate and go,

0:13:48 > 0:13:49"I'll have some rice, I'll have some curry.

0:13:49 > 0:13:53"Well done, Ed, you've made yourself an Indian meal."

0:13:55 > 0:13:57Won't do that. I'll get a plate, get a spoon

0:13:57 > 0:14:01and I'll run along the full line of trays just scraping food

0:14:01 > 0:14:03from every nation onto it,

0:14:03 > 0:14:05until I've got some sort of plate Pangaea,

0:14:05 > 0:14:09just an unidentifiable mass - Spanish food, Japanese food,

0:14:09 > 0:14:13Chinese food, Indian food, coffee, sushi, just horrible...

0:14:13 > 0:14:15Just wedge my face into it,

0:14:15 > 0:14:17everyone going, "Is that man all right?"

0:14:17 > 0:14:20"Don't look at me! I'm having a buffet!"

0:14:20 > 0:14:22Just food from all over the world.

0:14:22 > 0:14:27My body, for ten days, had no idea where I was on this planet.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30I went for a shit three days in, a UN flag came out.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:14:33 > 0:14:36Well done. At the end of that round, the points go to Ed Gamble.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38Come on back.

0:14:44 > 0:14:47The next round is called If This Is The Answer What Is The Question?

0:14:47 > 0:14:48On the board are six categories.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50Nathan, which category would you like?

0:14:50 > 0:14:52- Uh, it's got to be sport, please.- OK, cool.

0:14:52 > 0:14:54Your category is sport, the answer is...

0:14:57 > 0:15:00Erm, "How many white people apologised to me

0:15:00 > 0:15:02"when 12 Years A Slave was in the cinema?"

0:15:05 > 0:15:07(I'm really sorry, really sorry.)

0:15:07 > 0:15:10I don't know him, it's cool. Don't worry.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13It is, "How many pounds in cash did the Queen hide under her bed

0:15:13 > 0:15:18"when she'd seen that Jeremy Corbyn had been elected leader?"

0:15:18 > 0:15:20Her family's security is at risk.

0:15:22 > 0:15:25Is it, "How does someone with a cold say 'One million'?"

0:15:27 > 0:15:30That could be what caused the financial crisis.

0:15:30 > 0:15:34Is it, "How many wives would Henry VIII have had

0:15:34 > 0:15:36"if he'd been on Tinder?"

0:15:38 > 0:15:40"I shall have her!

0:15:40 > 0:15:43"And I shall have her!"

0:15:43 > 0:15:45Am I even flicking the right way? "I shall have her!"

0:15:45 > 0:15:47- You did good.- Thank you. - Oh! N...

0:15:49 > 0:15:54Is it, "How many crisps can you eat before you bleed to death...

0:15:56 > 0:15:58"..having a spiky, spiky poo?"

0:16:01 > 0:16:05- From a spiky poo?- Or as the Scots call it, "Bitey shitey".

0:16:09 > 0:16:11Is it, "What is the first thing that happens

0:16:11 > 0:16:14"in Billy Elliot, The Musical?"

0:16:14 > 0:16:15"One - Billy on."

0:16:16 > 0:16:19AUDIENCE GROANS

0:16:19 > 0:16:23Is it, "How many of Hilary Clinton's e-mails were actually spam

0:16:23 > 0:16:26"asking her if she wanted to increase her penis size?"

0:16:27 > 0:16:31Is it, "How many traces of urine are there in a peanut bowl

0:16:31 > 0:16:32"in a piss-on-your-hands club?"

0:16:37 > 0:16:40I really hope it's that one!

0:16:40 > 0:16:42- Fingers crossed!- Is the right answer!

0:16:44 > 0:16:46Is it, "How many times since Saturday

0:16:46 > 0:16:47"has Andy Burnham gone, 'Bollocks.'?"

0:16:50 > 0:16:52Can we move towards the correct answer, please?

0:16:52 > 0:16:56OK, "How many tracks are there on the compilation album

0:16:56 > 0:16:58"The Best Of Sound?"

0:17:04 > 0:17:07That's gotta be the answer, right?

0:17:07 > 0:17:10It was only released... It was released this week.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13We now have to think of things to improvise around that now.

0:17:13 > 0:17:15"Oh, this really is the BEST of sound."

0:17:16 > 0:17:23I think it's, "How much income will be generated by the Rugby World Cup?"

0:17:23 > 0:17:25That's absolutely right, Hugh, thank you very much.

0:17:25 > 0:17:27APPLAUSE

0:17:29 > 0:17:31Yes, the answer we were looking for was,

0:17:31 > 0:17:33"By how much money is the forthcoming Rugby World Cup

0:17:33 > 0:17:36"expected to boost the economy in the UK?" The tournament,

0:17:36 > 0:17:39which is being hosted by England for the first time since 1991,

0:17:39 > 0:17:41begins on Friday and is expected to attract

0:17:41 > 0:17:44almost half a million overseas visitors.

0:17:44 > 0:17:45People getting excited?

0:17:45 > 0:17:48Yes, there's only one sleep until the Rugby World Cup

0:17:48 > 0:17:52and then 25 more sleeps, as I snooze through it cos it's so boring.

0:17:52 > 0:17:55I think you can sleep for 45 - it goes on for a while.

0:17:55 > 0:17:58- You're excited? You... - Yeah, I'm excited, I'm excited.

0:17:58 > 0:18:01Yeah, you know, there are very few games where,

0:18:01 > 0:18:04before you go out on the pitch, you decide there's probably a need

0:18:04 > 0:18:08for you to gaffer tape your own ears to your head.

0:18:08 > 0:18:11- Is that what they have to do? - Yeah, in case people bite them.

0:18:11 > 0:18:12People chew their ears.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15Not in a nice nibbly way? Like, "You're playing really well."

0:18:18 > 0:18:20That's what we do at netball.

0:18:21 > 0:18:24It's the only sport where the opening ceremony

0:18:24 > 0:18:26is a doctor just explaining concussion.

0:18:28 > 0:18:30That's one thing I do find fascinating

0:18:30 > 0:18:31is how well behaved they are in rugby.

0:18:31 > 0:18:34I'm used to football where they argue all the time.

0:18:34 > 0:18:36Rugby's like cricket in the sense that they just obey.

0:18:36 > 0:18:39In cricket, if you're given out, you don't argue.

0:18:39 > 0:18:40It's like, "Why are you not arguing?"

0:18:40 > 0:18:42The umpire's an old guy with a cardigan.

0:18:42 > 0:18:46You're a young athlete with a bat - you can make him change his mind.

0:18:47 > 0:18:48Somebody sent me the Ireland jersey.

0:18:48 > 0:18:52A couple of mates have sent me the Irish jersey in large

0:18:52 > 0:18:53and it's ludicrous.

0:18:53 > 0:18:56It's like a child's T-shirt, because they wear them incredibly tight

0:18:56 > 0:18:58so that no-one can grab them,

0:18:58 > 0:18:59there's nothing to hold on to any more.

0:18:59 > 0:19:02It's all changed. I put it over my head with my hands through it

0:19:02 > 0:19:06and had to get somebody to roll it down my torso.

0:19:06 > 0:19:10You look a bit like the thing at the end that they throw the ball across.

0:19:12 > 0:19:14Like that and they throw it through.

0:19:14 > 0:19:16Before you make jokes like that,

0:19:16 > 0:19:18you need to make sure you know "posts" is a word.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22It's not netball, you don't throw the ball over the posts!

0:19:22 > 0:19:24It would be wonderful if, at the very end of the World Cup Final,

0:19:24 > 0:19:27they just threw the ball over the posts and went, "Yay!"

0:19:27 > 0:19:29That's not how you score!

0:19:30 > 0:19:32Kicking, though - you kick it through the posts?

0:19:32 > 0:19:34And then the game's over?

0:19:34 > 0:19:35No, no!

0:19:35 > 0:19:37This is such a happy day for me

0:19:37 > 0:19:41that somebody on this show knows less about sport than I do.

0:19:41 > 0:19:44I'm sitting here now, I feel like Eddie Waring.

0:19:45 > 0:19:47Eddie Waring who was Rugby League?

0:19:50 > 0:19:53In the line-out, what happens is they throw the ball in

0:19:53 > 0:19:56and it's a bit like cheating, cos two of them can lift up a player

0:19:56 > 0:19:58so as they jump higher to get it, right?

0:19:58 > 0:19:59But if there's eight in the line-out,

0:19:59 > 0:20:01why don't they take the cheating further,

0:20:01 > 0:20:05- get three of them to lift up two of them to lift up one of them?- Yes!

0:20:06 > 0:20:08It's like Strictly or something.

0:20:08 > 0:20:11They're all standing there and, suddenly from nowhere,

0:20:11 > 0:20:13one them just appears out of the line.

0:20:13 > 0:20:15Generally in the direction you're reaching for the ball.

0:20:15 > 0:20:19They should do more...that.

0:20:19 > 0:20:22They should play the music from Dirty Dancing when that happens.

0:20:22 > 0:20:23That would be fantastic!

0:20:23 > 0:20:27- BOTH SING: # The time of my life... # - So the person who gets lifted up,

0:20:27 > 0:20:30do they know it's going to happen, or is it a surprise?

0:20:30 > 0:20:34Like if you two suddenly lift me and I'm like, "Oh, my God! I never knew!

0:20:34 > 0:20:35"I'm the chosen one!"

0:20:35 > 0:20:38Sometimes they think it's the Rapture

0:20:38 > 0:20:39and...

0:20:40 > 0:20:42..they think, "Oh, take me now, Lord!

0:20:42 > 0:20:46- "Oh, no, don't...!" - SPEECH DROWNED OUT BY LAUGHTER

0:20:46 > 0:20:50Then they're immediately run over by eight Frenchmen.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54- It's a very beautiful game. - What a happy game!

0:20:54 > 0:20:58OK, moving on, who have scientists discovered in a cave this week?

0:20:58 > 0:21:00I'm so excited about this story.

0:21:00 > 0:21:02But I can't pronounce the name and I'm worried about...

0:21:02 > 0:21:04I know they're not here to get offended.

0:21:04 > 0:21:07- They're not. - Homo NA-ladi. Or na-LA-di.

0:21:07 > 0:21:09Nadali. Homo nadali.

0:21:09 > 0:21:12- Nadali?- Sorry, sorry, Homo naledi.

0:21:12 > 0:21:14Oh! No, can we just savour that moment

0:21:14 > 0:21:16where he corrected your pronunciation

0:21:16 > 0:21:19- by getting the word completely wrong?- Yes.

0:21:19 > 0:21:21Can we all just enjoy that for a second?

0:21:22 > 0:21:25It's impossible to say it without doing the...

0:21:25 > 0:21:27- IN REFINED VOICE:- .."M'lady".

0:21:27 > 0:21:30To give its full name, it's Homo naledi...

0:21:30 > 0:21:31no cry.

0:21:33 > 0:21:34The reason I love this story

0:21:34 > 0:21:38is they found a few bodies from 100 years apart in a cave.

0:21:38 > 0:21:41- This guy, this idiot... - That's Homo naledi.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43The find was announced last Thursday

0:21:43 > 0:21:46by the South African University of the Witwatersrand,

0:21:46 > 0:21:49National Geographic and the UK science journal eLife.

0:21:49 > 0:21:51That is a spooky cover.

0:21:51 > 0:21:55- SARA:- It is amazing. - They have your hooded eyes, Dara.

0:21:55 > 0:21:58- But the thing is... - LAUGHTER

0:21:58 > 0:22:01I would find it very hard to believe if the production staff of this show

0:22:01 > 0:22:04had not done a photograph of that and made it look like you.

0:22:04 > 0:22:06- I would like to think they have. - Uh-oh!

0:22:08 > 0:22:09APPLAUSE

0:22:09 > 0:22:11But why...? No!

0:22:11 > 0:22:15- Pull the face!- No! - Pull the face!

0:22:15 > 0:22:18- I am not doing the face! - HUGH: I tell you one thing -

0:22:18 > 0:22:20I am not getting on that Megabus.

0:22:25 > 0:22:26Now that, I think, is a thing.

0:22:26 > 0:22:29ANDY: I think we know where this is going now, don't we?

0:22:29 > 0:22:31There we go.

0:22:31 > 0:22:33APPLAUSE

0:22:33 > 0:22:34Wow.

0:22:34 > 0:22:36You look the happiest out of all three.

0:22:36 > 0:22:39- How did they die? Do you know how they died?- No. I don't know.

0:22:39 > 0:22:42They were shot by an American dentist.

0:22:42 > 0:22:44LAUGHTER AND GROANS

0:22:44 > 0:22:45Now, that is too soon.

0:22:45 > 0:22:49- Yep.- OK. At the end of that round, the points go to Ed, Sara and Andy.

0:22:51 > 0:22:53APPLAUSE

0:22:55 > 0:22:57Now we come to Scenes We'd Like to See.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59So, if everyone can make their way over to the performance area,

0:22:59 > 0:23:01I'll read out this week's topics

0:23:01 > 0:23:03and then we'll see what our panellists can come up with.

0:23:03 > 0:23:05OK, here we go.

0:23:05 > 0:23:07The first subject is...

0:23:12 > 0:23:13History...

0:23:13 > 0:23:16did I delete it?

0:23:18 > 0:23:19BUZZER

0:23:21 > 0:23:26If cycling ten miles a day uses up 400 calories,

0:24:11 > 0:24:13BUZZER

0:24:15 > 0:24:19What does the French phrase "deja vu" literally translate as?

0:24:19 > 0:24:22APPLAUSE

0:24:22 > 0:24:23BUZZER

0:24:24 > 0:24:26Question A.

0:24:26 > 0:24:28Media Studies - is it a real subject?

0:24:30 > 0:24:32Question B.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34IS it?

0:24:35 > 0:24:36BUZZER

0:26:15 > 0:26:18the first female President of the United States,

0:26:18 > 0:26:20I promise you that, on my first day in the White House,

0:27:38 > 0:27:39BUZZER
