0:01:26 > 0:01:29Yes, there's a prize now, so no-one loses.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31Uh, no. More people do lose.

0:01:31 > 0:01:33I thought more people won?

0:01:33 > 0:01:36Well, yes, but more people win less, so we lose more losers

0:01:36 > 0:01:38while seeing more winners.

0:01:38 > 0:01:39Oh! Agh...

0:01:39 > 0:01:42For the love of God, who came up with these rules?!

0:02:16 > 0:02:18Thanks, sweetheart.

0:02:19 > 0:02:23GERMAN NATIONAL ANTHEM PLAYS.

0:02:24 > 0:02:27Oh, Birgit, what a day.

0:02:27 > 0:02:30I am so tired of all this Fisten-Cuffen and German politics.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33Why can we not just form a coalition?

0:02:33 > 0:02:36Ah, you will do it, mein Chancellor-ette.

0:02:36 > 0:02:40After all, who just tops the Forbes list of the 100 Most Powerful Women?

0:02:40 > 0:02:41Me. Angela Merkel.

0:02:41 > 0:02:43You don't look very happy about it.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45Aren't you hipping the hoorays?

0:02:45 > 0:02:47I won last year!

0:02:47 > 0:02:50I've been there, done that, bought the Lederhosen.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52But so many great women are below you.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55Beyonce is only number 50.

0:02:55 > 0:02:58That was before they announced the cast of The Lion King remake.

0:02:58 > 0:03:00By now, she'd be a solid 35.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03But aren't you even eine kleine bit happy?

0:03:03 > 0:03:05Nein! Because the Forbes 100 is easy.

0:03:05 > 0:03:08Where is my name on the list of 100 Hottest Women?

0:03:08 > 0:03:11Can't they see that I am sexy as well as powerful?

0:03:11 > 0:03:13Like Wonder Woman!

0:03:13 > 0:03:16Maybe you're looking in the wrong place.

0:03:16 > 0:03:19Do you think that this outfit is beige enough, Birgit?

0:03:19 > 0:03:24Do you think we should beige it up some more?

0:03:24 > 0:03:25Ah, look here, mein Chancellor-ette.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37Listen, you are a powerful woman mit important things to do.

0:03:37 > 0:03:39Forget this fluff.

0:03:39 > 0:03:41There are fresh concerns about the Kremlin interfering in Catalonia.

0:03:41 > 0:03:44You should write a strong and lengthy statement.

0:03:44 > 0:03:48Wait! Could that be the answer?

0:03:48 > 0:03:52Has the Kremlin been interfering with the FHM Sexiest Women poll?

0:03:52 > 0:03:54Ja. Ja!

0:03:54 > 0:03:56They are trying to undermine the West by lying

0:03:56 > 0:03:58about your total hotness.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01Oh, what a relief. I feel so much better.

0:04:11 > 0:04:14You see, I'm throwing the shade on her, like Wonder Woman.

0:04:14 > 0:04:15Have you actually seen that film?

0:04:15 > 0:04:18Nein, I don't have Netflixen.

0:04:28 > 0:04:31with the PM on Wednesday.

0:04:31 > 0:04:34Well, we think it was Wednesday that she met the PM.

0:04:37 > 0:04:38bother telling anyone.

0:04:41 > 0:04:45ORDERS SHOUTED.

0:04:45 > 0:04:47Defence Secretary.

0:04:47 > 0:04:49Where? Oh, right, that's me, isn't it?

0:04:49 > 0:04:50Sorry. New to the job.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52Major General Edwards. Where?

0:04:52 > 0:04:54Oh, right, is that you? Sorry.

0:04:54 > 0:04:56I just wasn't expecting a...

0:04:56 > 0:04:57Yes. Yeah.

0:04:57 > 0:04:59Gavin Williamson.

0:04:59 > 0:05:00And this is the Army, then?

0:05:00 > 0:05:02It is. Right.

0:05:02 > 0:05:05So, where do you keep the boats?

0:05:05 > 0:05:06No, that's the Navy. That's the Navy.

0:05:06 > 0:05:07Right. Yeah.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10Boats equals Navy.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12Sorry, I am still slightly playing catch-up with the details.

0:05:12 > 0:05:15I wasn't really expecting to suddenly become Defence Secretary.

0:05:15 > 0:05:18This time last week, I was in the Chief Whip's office,

0:05:18 > 0:05:20you know, with my pet spider.

0:05:20 > 0:05:22Your...? Sorry.

0:05:22 > 0:05:24Kronos, this is Major General Edwards.

0:05:24 > 0:05:26Major General Edwards, this is Kronos.

0:05:26 > 0:05:30Yeah, so last week, I was just Weird Spider Guy,

0:05:30 > 0:05:33and now I'm in charge of the full might of Her Majesty's Armed Forces.

0:05:33 > 0:05:35It's insane, eh? Utterly.

0:05:35 > 0:05:38Anyway, the upshot is, I've suddenly had to swot up

0:05:38 > 0:05:39on the Army and Navy.

0:05:39 > 0:05:41And Air Force. There's an air force as well?

0:05:41 > 0:05:42Right. OK.

0:05:42 > 0:05:43Well, I'm learning already.

0:05:43 > 0:05:45I'll have the hang of this in no time.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47Right, should I go and address the troops?

0:05:47 > 0:05:48If you'd like.

0:05:48 > 0:05:51I'm sure they'd be delighted to hear from a man of such

0:05:51 > 0:05:52uncommon experience.

0:05:52 > 0:05:54They're this way. Right you are.

0:05:54 > 0:05:55That's a Cub Scout salute.

0:05:55 > 0:05:56Right. What is the proper salute?

0:05:56 > 0:05:57It's Army, Navy, Air Force.

0:05:57 > 0:05:58Ah.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01Ah, so my next-door neighbour thinks I'm in the Air Force!

0:06:01 > 0:06:02I'm glad I asked.

0:06:02 > 0:06:04I can't tell you how helpful this has been.

0:06:04 > 0:06:07It's been my absolute pleasure. Now, are there any other questions?

0:06:07 > 0:06:09Yes, can Kronos be your new regimental mascot?

0:06:09 > 0:06:10No. OK.

0:06:10 > 0:06:11Can I have a gun?

0:06:11 > 0:06:13No. Fair enough.

0:06:13 > 0:06:14Right, then, ready? Absolutely.

0:06:14 > 0:06:15Don't worry.

0:06:15 > 0:06:16They may look like trained killers...

0:10:51 > 0:10:55Can I have those on my royal visit to England-land?

0:10:55 > 0:11:00Actually, your trip's been adjusted to a working visit.

0:11:00 > 0:11:03But I still get to ride in a gold carriage, right?

0:11:03 > 0:11:05And I want to meet Duchess Kate, but not if she's

0:11:05 > 0:11:07still carrying baby fat.

0:11:07 > 0:11:10I have high standards, the highest.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13Donald, there's some things I really need to speak to you about.

0:11:13 > 0:11:17First, I have a question, and it's a very normal question.

0:11:17 > 0:11:19Are you wearing a wire?

0:11:19 > 0:11:21No, I'm not wearing a wire.

0:11:21 > 0:11:23Good.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25Although I've got nothing to worry about.

0:11:25 > 0:11:29Papadopoulos was very low level, I hardly knew Manafort,

0:11:29 > 0:11:31didn't even realise he was my campaign manager

0:11:31 > 0:11:33or long-term friend.

0:11:33 > 0:11:34I see.

0:11:34 > 0:11:38All these people are low level. Take Ivanka.

0:11:38 > 0:11:41She's a low-level volunteer daughter from an old wife who I fired

0:11:41 > 0:11:43before the campaign, a campaign I did not

0:11:43 > 0:11:46know much about.

0:11:46 > 0:11:48I left that all to the Russians.

0:11:48 > 0:11:52Look, I have some things to say to you, and I intend to say them.

0:11:52 > 0:11:54SHE CLEARS HER THROAT.

0:11:54 > 0:11:57When you come here, I insist you don't grab anyone

0:11:57 > 0:11:59by the you-know-what, link moped crime to Islamic

0:11:59 > 0:12:02terrorism or threaten nuclear wars that may or may not incinerate

0:12:02 > 0:12:06the Northern Hemisphere.

0:12:06 > 0:12:09There, I've said it, and we can tell the press that

0:12:09 > 0:12:12I stood up to you and that I'm strong, which I am.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15I hope I didn't go too far. Did I go to far?

0:12:15 > 0:12:17Please, can we still have a trade deal?

0:12:17 > 0:12:20What was that? I wasn't listening.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23I was doing a tweet about how we should kill all of America's

0:12:23 > 0:12:27judges, even the ones from America's Got Talent.

0:12:27 > 0:12:28Right.

0:12:28 > 0:12:31Well, it's always good to talk to you.

0:12:31 > 0:12:34Theresa, it's always good to be on Fox News.

0:12:34 > 0:12:36I'm not Fox News.

0:12:36 > 0:12:38I'm the British Prime Minister, remember?

0:12:38 > 0:12:40So that's why you're not hot?

0:12:40 > 0:12:43OK, what button kills the call? Is it this one?

0:12:43 > 0:12:46SHE SIGHS.

0:12:46 > 0:12:48Someone get me...

0:12:50 > 0:12:53# She's going to faking well break the news...#

0:12:53 > 0:12:55Alexis, what's the weather like today?

0:12:55 > 0:12:58OLD WOMAN:Back in my day, we didn't have all this technology,

0:12:58 > 0:13:00and we seemed to get along just fine.

0:13:00 > 0:13:04Introducing the all-new Alexis Senior Edition.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06Alexis, what's playing at the local cinema?

0:13:06 > 0:13:08Oh, you don't want to go out.

0:13:08 > 0:13:10That Mrs Brown's on tonight.

0:13:10 > 0:13:14Do you know she's actually a man in a dress?

0:13:14 > 0:13:16If you're missing having that elderly parent around,

0:13:16 > 0:13:18then the Alexis Senior is perfect for you.

0:13:18 > 0:13:20Alexis, call Trevor.

0:13:20 > 0:13:22Is that your new fancy man?

0:13:22 > 0:13:25If I'd had more than one fella in my life, I'd have

0:13:25 > 0:13:27been called a slapper, but I suppose times change.

0:13:27 > 0:13:28Alexis, call Trevor!

0:13:28 > 0:13:30Oh, that reminds me,

0:13:30 > 0:13:33you'll never guess who else has got cancer?

0:13:33 > 0:13:35The new Alexis Senior Edition.

0:13:35 > 0:13:38Alexis, book a taxi in five minutes.

0:13:38 > 0:13:41Ooh, I don't know, everyone's in such a hurry nowadays.

0:13:41 > 0:13:43Now 50% more reactionary.

0:13:43 > 0:13:45Alexis, dim lights.

0:13:45 > 0:13:48And shall I also put the temperature up?

0:13:48 > 0:13:51I expect it's usually hotter than this where he comes from.

0:13:51 > 0:13:52Really?!

0:13:52 > 0:13:54I'm sorry about her.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56She won't be around much longer.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58Typical!

0:13:58 > 0:14:02And she promised she'd never put me in a home!

0:14:02 > 0:14:04Excuse me.

0:14:04 > 0:14:06I'm Dr Michael Townsend, British Heritage.

0:14:06 > 0:14:09I'm Lady Yaxley, chair of the Public Statues Review Commission.

0:14:09 > 0:14:11Very, very nice to meet you.

0:14:11 > 0:14:13What exactly is going on here?

0:14:13 > 0:14:15Well, quite simply, we're going to blow up Nelson's Column.

0:14:15 > 0:14:16What?

0:14:16 > 0:14:19No doubt you've heard about all the hoo-ha in America

0:14:19 > 0:14:25with the Confederate statues, and the Cecil Rhodes in Oxford?

0:14:25 > 0:14:28Well, the Government is super-keen to avoid offending anyone right now,

0:14:28 > 0:14:31so they've asked me to have a gander at all the statues in Britain

0:14:31 > 0:14:34and work out which one is going to cause the next big stink.

0:14:34 > 0:14:35But Nelson's Column?

0:14:35 > 0:14:37Because of the admiral's links to the slave trade.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40That's just political posturing, surely?

0:14:40 > 0:14:42Nevertheless, we think it's best to err on the safe

0:14:42 > 0:14:43side and blow it up.

0:14:43 > 0:14:44You can't do that.

0:14:44 > 0:14:47He was a great naval tactician, died a hero's death.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50I mean, he was also a strong supporter of the slave trade,

0:14:50 > 0:14:52but then this statue doesn't celebrate his support

0:14:52 > 0:14:53of the slave trade,

0:14:53 > 0:14:55though it could be seen as condoning it, so...

0:14:55 > 0:14:58It's a very complicated question. Exactly.

0:14:58 > 0:15:03And what very complicated questions need are very simple answers.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11I think we dodged a bullet there.

0:15:11 > 0:15:13On we go!

0:15:13 > 0:15:15BBC NEWS THEME PLAYS.

0:15:15 > 0:15:16This is Simone Fredericks,

0:15:16 > 0:15:19and I've been awake so long I can't drive myself home.

0:15:19 > 0:15:21Prince Harry's girlfriend, Meghan Markle, is set to move

0:15:21 > 0:15:23to London, prompting speculation that the couple are

0:15:23 > 0:15:25to become engaged.

0:15:25 > 0:15:27Click here for Meghan's diet and beauty tips.

0:15:27 > 0:15:29Uh, somebody has just copied and pasted Buzzfeed

0:15:29 > 0:15:31onto the autocue there.

0:15:31 > 0:15:34Can we stop doing that?

0:15:35 > 0:15:38Nicola, why are we meeting here? It's proper bracing.

0:15:38 > 0:15:40Almost too bracing.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42Ah, there's no such thing as too bracing, Wee Mhairi.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44I've brought you here because I'm going to take

0:15:44 > 0:15:46you on a little sea voyage.

0:15:46 > 0:15:49I want to show you something important.

0:15:49 > 0:15:51THEME FROM COAST PLAYS.

0:15:51 > 0:15:54Do you know who the bane of my life is, Wee Mhairi?

0:15:54 > 0:15:55Jimmy Krankie?

0:15:55 > 0:15:57Because people keep saying you look like her.

0:15:57 > 0:16:00No, you daft dobber. Theresa May.

0:16:00 > 0:16:04Not only did she put the kibosh on indyref2,

0:16:04 > 0:16:07but thanks to her hopeless Brexit shenanigans, Scotland's

0:16:07 > 0:16:10being pulled out of Europe whether we like it or not.

0:16:10 > 0:16:12And we do not.

0:16:12 > 0:16:14Oh, but don't worry,

0:16:14 > 0:16:17I'm going to cut a few back-door deals with our European neighbours

0:16:17 > 0:16:22so Scotland is protected when the Brex-shit hits the fan.

0:16:22 > 0:16:24Our European neighbours?

0:16:24 > 0:16:29I've a crack team beavering away in a top-secret offshore location.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31Is it the Orkneys?

0:16:31 > 0:16:34Yeah, yeah, it's the Orkneys. Oh.

0:16:34 > 0:16:37It's just such a beautiful holiday destination.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39People say that. What can you actually do there?

0:16:39 > 0:16:43There's loads to do there. Like what?

0:16:43 > 0:16:45Oh, walking.

0:16:45 > 0:16:47Hiking. Strolling.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49Wandering. Roaming.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52Aye, the roaming's dead good.

0:16:54 > 0:16:57This way, Wee Mhairi.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00DOOR CREAKS.

0:17:04 > 0:17:07Behold the Scottish Partisan Operations Room

0:17:07 > 0:17:10for European Negotiations - SPORREN.

0:17:10 > 0:17:12It looks just like a call centre.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14It is a call centre.

0:17:14 > 0:17:17Then why does it have to be so far away?

0:17:17 > 0:17:19Well, we've got to stay under Theresa May's radar,

0:17:19 > 0:17:21because what we're doing here might not be

0:17:21 > 0:17:22strictly constitutional.

0:17:22 > 0:17:24Hello, this is Morag calling from the ancient

0:17:24 > 0:17:25country of Scotland.

0:17:25 > 0:17:28I understand you've been involved in a Brexit that wasn't your fault.

0:17:28 > 0:17:32I wonder if I could interest you in a political alliance at all?

0:17:32 > 0:17:35Hello, is that the Dutch Cabinet Office?

0:17:35 > 0:17:37I'm calling from the SNP on behalf of Nicola Sturgeon,

0:17:37 > 0:17:39the First Minister of Scotland.

0:17:39 > 0:17:40It's part of the UK.

0:17:40 > 0:17:43The bit above England.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45No, no, no, we want to stay with you!

0:17:45 > 0:17:47Nicola, I think I've got you a lead.

0:17:47 > 0:17:48Brilliant.

0:17:48 > 0:17:50It's the Cultural Minister of Slovenia.

0:17:50 > 0:17:53He said he'd consider a meeting if you can get him tickets

0:17:53 > 0:17:54to the next Biffy Clyro tour.

0:17:54 > 0:17:56At least I think that's what he said.

0:17:56 > 0:17:59He's quite hard to understand. Right, give me the phone there.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01Hello, it's Nicola Sturgeon from the SNP.

0:18:01 > 0:18:02We're a pro-European constitutional organisation and...

0:18:02 > 0:18:04Hello?

0:18:04 > 0:18:06I AM speaking English. Aye.

0:18:06 > 0:18:09Hello? Hello?

0:18:09 > 0:18:10He's hung up.

0:18:10 > 0:18:13Why on earth couldn't he understand me?

0:18:13 > 0:18:15Do you think it could be anything to do with you saying Scotland

0:18:15 > 0:18:18wants to be an independent country with a proud nationalist agenda,

0:18:18 > 0:18:21whilst simultaneously denying the primacy of national borders

0:18:21 > 0:18:23by claiming you want to be an enthusiastic part

0:18:23 > 0:18:25of the European Union?

0:18:25 > 0:18:29Shut it, Wee Mhairi, and go for a long roam.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32Have you recently been outed as a sex pest?

0:18:32 > 0:18:34Would you like to pretend your disgusting behaviour

0:18:34 > 0:18:37is the result of an illness, rather than you're just

0:18:37 > 0:18:39being a total shit?

0:18:39 > 0:18:43Then why not check into the Some Sort of Therapy Centre?

0:18:43 > 0:18:46The Some Sort of Therapy Centre is Europe's leading facility

0:18:46 > 0:18:48for everyone from shamed Hollywood producers to shamed

0:18:48 > 0:18:52Hollywood actor-producers.

0:18:52 > 0:18:55Our team of, presumably, therapists is here to help you tell the world,

0:18:55 > 0:18:57"It's OK, I'm dealing with this myself.

0:18:57 > 0:18:59"No need for the police."

0:18:59 > 0:19:03It's the perfect place to relax, unwind and avoid facing

0:19:03 > 0:19:05the consequences of your actions.

0:19:05 > 0:19:07Our range of treatments includes

0:19:07 > 0:19:09counselling, or something like that,

0:19:09 > 0:19:12meditation, probably,

0:19:12 > 0:19:15and generally keeping a low profile till the heat's off.

0:19:15 > 0:19:17But don't take my word for it.

0:19:17 > 0:19:20Here's just one of our self-satisfied customers.

0:19:20 > 0:19:23Before I came here, everyone was calling me a sex criminal,

0:19:23 > 0:19:28which seemed wrong to me somehow.

0:19:28 > 0:19:30But the Some Sort of Therapy Centre made me realise that I'm

0:19:30 > 0:19:34actually a sex addict, which means I bear no

0:19:34 > 0:19:36responsibility for all the horrible things I've done.

0:19:36 > 0:19:39So come to the Some Sort of Therapy Centre and take

0:19:39 > 0:19:43the first step to a new you, who's exactly the same as the old

0:19:43 > 0:19:46you but hopefully not facing prison.

0:19:47 > 0:19:50# Oh, cavolo nero #.

0:19:50 > 0:19:51Hello, John.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53Jeremy, what's going on here?

0:19:53 > 0:19:56Well, my brassicas are flourishing, but that's autumn for you.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59We're meant to be prepping you for Prime Minister's Questions.

0:19:59 > 0:20:02I only found out you were in your allotment because you checked

0:20:02 > 0:20:03yourself in on Facebook.

0:20:03 > 0:20:05Let's just take it down a notch, shall we?

0:20:05 > 0:20:07The workers. The workers.

0:20:07 > 0:20:10If I didn't get out here now and again, I feel

0:20:10 > 0:20:13like I spend my entire life telling adoring crowds that I intend

0:20:13 > 0:20:18to build a fairer Britain, a Britain where the nation's

0:20:18 > 0:20:21resources are not hoarded by the elite but shared

0:20:21 > 0:20:26equally in a spirit of democracy and justice.

0:20:26 > 0:20:30# Oh, Jeremy Corbyn #.

0:20:30 > 0:20:31And I wouldn't want that.

0:20:31 > 0:20:33Let's just get on with it, shall we?

0:20:33 > 0:20:36I've got all the "I've had an e-mail from so-and-so"s here.

0:20:36 > 0:20:38Shall we just go through them?

0:20:38 > 0:20:39Yeah, if you like. OK.

0:20:39 > 0:20:40There's one here about Boris Johnson's gaffe

0:20:40 > 0:20:42regarding that woman in Iran.

0:20:42 > 0:20:43That sounds good.

0:20:43 > 0:20:45Except the e-mail is from Peter from Peterborough.

0:20:45 > 0:20:47I don't know, maybe it sounds a bit silly.

0:20:47 > 0:20:49I mean, Peter's OK, and Peterborough's OK,

0:20:49 > 0:20:51but, "I've had an e-mail from Peter from Peterborough..."

0:20:51 > 0:20:53Yeah, it's a bit Peter heavy.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55There's one here from Sheila from Doncaster.

0:20:55 > 0:20:56That sounds perfect.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58Except her question is,

0:20:58 > 0:21:01"What is the Prime Minister's favourite mollusc?"

0:21:01 > 0:21:04Well, let's just take Peter's question and say it's from Sheila.

0:21:04 > 0:21:07Violate the sanctity of "I've had an e-mail from so-and-so"s?

0:21:07 > 0:21:10Well, I wonder if I haven't outgrown the whole "I've had an e-mail

0:21:10 > 0:21:12from so-and-so"s thing, John.

0:21:12 > 0:21:14Let me remind you, Jeremy, that the so-and-sos

0:21:14 > 0:21:16are the ordinary, decent working people of this country.

0:21:16 > 0:21:17Or have you outgrown them?!

0:21:17 > 0:21:19The workers. The workers.

0:21:19 > 0:21:21No, it's not that.

0:21:21 > 0:21:24It's just that people aren't really interested in folksy e-mails

0:21:24 > 0:21:26from Sheila in Doncaster.

0:21:26 > 0:21:30They want to hear from Jeremy in Islington!

0:21:30 > 0:21:35My unlikely fame is currently our best bet for building

0:21:35 > 0:21:38a fairer Britain, a Britain in which a person's prospects

0:21:38 > 0:21:43are determined not by where they come from or who their parents

0:21:43 > 0:21:47are, but by their own talents and hard work...

0:21:47 > 0:21:49Oh, put a sock in it, Corbyn!

0:21:51 > 0:21:52Hey, get off me!

0:21:52 > 0:21:54Agh!

0:21:54 > 0:21:55GRUNTING.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57Well, I don't condone that, do you?

0:21:57 > 0:22:00No, there's absolutely no place for that kind of behaviour.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02HE GROANS.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04So, what are you going to ask at PMQs tomorrow?

0:22:04 > 0:22:06Perhaps I'll just wing it.

0:22:06 > 0:22:09Whatever I say these days seems to be right.

0:22:10 > 0:22:11OK, that's it.

0:22:11 > 0:22:14If you care so little about the working population of this

0:22:14 > 0:22:17country that you'd rather blurt out random thoughts instead of airing

0:22:17 > 0:22:20their justifiable grievances, then on your head be it.

0:22:20 > 0:22:22Do you want any Swiss chard?

0:22:22 > 0:22:24No, thank you!

0:22:30 > 0:22:32All right, we've got to have an editorial meeting.

0:22:32 > 0:22:33We've got a bit of a problem.

0:22:33 > 0:22:37The boss said that we can't put Brexit on the front page every day.

0:22:37 > 0:22:39We have done for the last year.

0:22:39 > 0:22:41I know, and people are getting a teensy bit bored.

0:22:41 > 0:22:42We need to get other headlines.

0:22:42 > 0:22:44Now, the World Cup is coming up.

0:22:44 > 0:22:46And what are we looking at here?

0:22:46 > 0:22:48Is it the warehouse staff from DFS Basingstoke?

0:22:48 > 0:22:49No, it's the England football team.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51ALL:Is it?

0:22:51 > 0:22:53Yeah.

0:22:53 > 0:22:56Rooney has retired from the England squad, so the last tabloid-selling

0:22:56 > 0:22:58player has officially left the pitch, and we're

0:22:58 > 0:22:59left with this lot.

0:22:59 > 0:23:01I mean, who even are they?

0:23:01 > 0:23:02I think that one's Dier.

0:23:02 > 0:23:05They're all bloody DIRE!

0:23:05 > 0:23:07People used to care about England.

0:23:07 > 0:23:10The nation laughed when Lineker shat his pants.

0:23:10 > 0:23:12They cried when Beckham got sent off.

0:23:12 > 0:23:15They smiled when Gazza made jokes about his crippling alcoholism.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17Them's were the days, eh?

0:23:17 > 0:23:20Yeah, and now this lot has qualified for the World Cup

0:23:20 > 0:23:23and no-one's even noticed.

0:23:23 > 0:23:26It's like the only people that care about football any more are people

0:23:26 > 0:23:27who actually like football.

0:23:27 > 0:23:29Ludicrous.

0:23:29 > 0:23:31We've got to save the England team.

0:23:31 > 0:23:33We've got to get them back on the front pages.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36Yeah, but how do we do that now phone hacking's off the agenda?

0:23:36 > 0:23:38We'll have to go old school.

0:23:38 > 0:23:39Make stuff up. Puns sell papers.

0:23:39 > 0:23:41Exactly.

0:23:41 > 0:23:43This, apparently, is Joe Hart.

0:23:43 > 0:23:44He's happily married...

0:23:44 > 0:23:45Or is he?

0:23:45 > 0:23:48Yeah, he is, yeah.

0:23:48 > 0:23:51I know, but you track down a snap of him looking

0:23:51 > 0:23:53a bit saucy at someone, bit of tabloid magic and, bingo,

0:23:53 > 0:23:55he's Joe Hart-breaker.

0:23:55 > 0:23:57Everybody loves a Casanova.

0:23:57 > 0:23:59This is Harry Kane.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01Harry KANES it!

0:24:01 > 0:24:03I'll go and stick 50 empty cider bottles in his bin.

0:24:03 > 0:24:04Yeah.

0:24:04 > 0:24:06Suddenly he's a troubled genius.

0:24:06 > 0:24:08You see? I'm interested already.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10Danny Drinkwater.

0:24:10 > 0:24:11ALL:Danny Snort-cocaine!

0:24:11 > 0:24:13And we're back in the game.

0:24:13 > 0:24:14BBC NEWS THEME PLAYS.

0:24:14 > 0:24:17The Paradise Papers have revealed that about £10 million

0:24:17 > 0:24:19of the Queen's own money was invested in an

0:24:19 > 0:24:21offshore tax haven.

0:24:21 > 0:24:24What are you doing, ma'am? Surely it's all your own money?

0:24:24 > 0:24:26HER MAJESTY's Revenue & Customs.

0:24:26 > 0:24:29You're only hurting yourself.

0:24:29 > 0:24:31Seriously? Eros?

0:24:31 > 0:24:35Otherwise known as the Angel of Christian Charity?

0:24:35 > 0:24:38Or to look at it another way, it depicts a semi-naked figure

0:24:38 > 0:24:39rampaging around Piccadilly Circus shooting people

0:24:39 > 0:24:42with a bow and arrow.

0:24:42 > 0:24:43Right.

0:24:43 > 0:24:48EXPLOSION.

0:24:48 > 0:24:49Right. SHE CHUCKLES.

0:24:49 > 0:24:51What's next?

0:24:51 > 0:24:53Paddington Bear's statue. Paddington Bear?!

0:24:53 > 0:24:56Illegal immigrant.

0:24:58 > 0:25:02Hello, and welcome to The Review Show here on BBC Four -

0:25:02 > 0:25:06too smart for BBC One, too smug for BBC Two.

0:25:06 > 0:25:10Tonight, I'm joined by not one woman but two, partly

0:25:10 > 0:25:13because there was a booking error but also because we're discussing

0:25:13 > 0:25:15a new season of female-led TV drama.

0:25:15 > 0:25:18Let's take a look, shall we?

0:25:18 > 0:25:22New to the BBC - a season of those dramas about powerful women.

0:25:22 > 0:25:26Judge Jane Jones is a no-nonsense law-maker at the top of her game.

0:25:26 > 0:25:27Objection, Your Honour.

0:25:27 > 0:25:31Overruled and, believe me, I know when to overrule.

0:25:31 > 0:25:33I am damn good at my job.

0:25:33 > 0:25:37Mummy, you said you'd be home today. You said you'd take us to the park.

0:25:37 > 0:25:40I would love to, but I'm too busy judging.

0:25:40 > 0:25:42And because this is drama, she's bound to snap.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45So, Jane, I hear your ex-husband took the children away.

0:25:45 > 0:25:48I'm not surprised, as you have a successful career, so...

0:25:48 > 0:25:52..you can't have a family as well.

0:25:55 > 0:25:58Jane Hart is a no-nonsense surgeon at the top of her game.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01I know I can save him, damn it!

0:26:01 > 0:26:03I'm the best surgeon in the country, maybe even the world.

0:26:03 > 0:26:05Hello, David?

0:26:05 > 0:26:07I really need to have self-destructive sex with someone

0:26:07 > 0:26:09in a way that will bring about my downfall.

0:26:09 > 0:26:12And since she's powerful, she's bound to snap.

0:26:12 > 0:26:15The young man you had sex with has told everybody at the hospital.

0:26:15 > 0:26:20If you will have sex with people, especially at your age...

0:26:23 > 0:26:26Jane Strong is a no-nonsense architect at the top of her game.

0:26:26 > 0:26:29I don't want to hear your excuses. Just get it done!

0:26:29 > 0:26:32Hi, I'm your new colleague, Claire Foundations.

0:26:32 > 0:26:35I'm also no-nonsense and at the top of my game.

0:26:35 > 0:26:37I hear you've both gone for the same promotion.

0:26:37 > 0:26:41One or both of you is bound to snap.

0:26:49 > 0:26:52So, Carol, if I can come to you first, isn't it great

0:26:52 > 0:26:55to finally see so many female characters at the top of their game?

0:26:55 > 0:26:57Well, it would be if they didn't portray all powerful women

0:26:57 > 0:27:06as inevitably psychotic.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08These shows suggest any woman with a half-decent job

0:27:08 > 0:27:09is destined to self-destruct.

0:27:09 > 0:27:10It's ridiculous. OK.

0:27:10 > 0:27:13Kelly, I imagine you'd like to disagree because that is why

0:27:13 > 0:27:14we have two of you.

0:27:14 > 0:27:15No, no, I agree with Carol. What?

0:27:15 > 0:27:18Women with successful careers are written like it's some

0:27:18 > 0:27:19kind of character flaw.

0:27:19 > 0:27:21I find that quite offensive.

0:27:21 > 0:27:23But you're both no-nonsense television reviewers

0:27:23 > 0:27:25at the top of your game.

0:27:25 > 0:27:28Are you not going to violently disagree and then commit some sort

0:27:28 > 0:27:30of impulsive act that ultimately leads to your downfall?

0:27:30 > 0:27:33I think you've been watching a bit too much telly, Martin.

0:27:33 > 0:27:37What if I told you we only had space for one of you on next week's show?

0:27:37 > 0:27:38Wouldn't matter.

0:27:38 > 0:27:40In real life, professional women...

0:27:41 > 0:27:43Well, that's that bitch out of the way.

0:27:43 > 0:27:45Would you like to have an affair?

0:27:45 > 0:27:48I thought you'd never ask.
