Good evening. Welcome to Would I Lie To You? | 0:00:23 | 0:00:25 | |
the show with barefaced lies | 0:00:25 | 0:00:27 | |
and well-masked truths. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
On Lee Mack's team tonight, | 0:00:30 | 0:00:31 | |
an American comedian, actor and star of The Simpsons. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:35 | |
One of the few people for whom | 0:00:35 | 0:00:36 | |
having voices in his head | 0:00:36 | 0:00:38 | |
is actually a good thing. | 0:00:38 | 0:00:39 | |
It's Harry Shearer. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:00:41 | 0:00:43 | |
And she presents The Great Pottery Throw Down, | 0:00:43 | 0:00:47 | |
which I think is just smashing. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:48 | |
It's Sara Cox. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:50 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:00:50 | 0:00:55 | |
And on David Mitchell's team tonight, | 0:00:55 | 0:00:57 | |
a comedian who used to be a glass collector in a comedy club. | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
It was a tough job but he picked it up as he went along. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:02 | |
It's Jason Manford. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:04 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:01:04 | 0:01:06 | |
And the BBC's former chief political editor. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:10 | |
In one year, he asked politicians a record number of questions - 5,000 - | 0:01:10 | 0:01:15 | |
and got a record number of answers - seven. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:17 | |
It's Nick Robinson. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:19 | |
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:01:19 | 0:01:24 | |
So, to round one, Home Truths, | 0:01:24 | 0:01:25 | |
where our panellists each read out a statement | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
from the card in front of them. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:29 | |
To make things harder, they've never seen the card before, | 0:01:29 | 0:01:31 | |
so they've no idea what they'll be faced with. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
It's up to the opposing team to sort the fact from the fiction - | 0:01:34 | 0:01:37 | |
and Jason is first up tonight. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:39 | |
OK. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:40 | |
"I once wet myself whilst baby-sitting a toddler." | 0:01:41 | 0:01:45 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:01:45 | 0:01:46 | |
Lee's team. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
When was this? | 0:01:48 | 0:01:49 | |
I reckon I was about... | 0:01:49 | 0:01:50 | |
..12 or 13. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:53 | |
It's quite young to be baby-sitting. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:55 | |
It's not in the North. LAUGHTER | 0:01:55 | 0:01:57 | |
Most of us are parents by that age. I was going to say. | 0:01:57 | 0:01:59 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:01:59 | 0:02:00 | |
So, whose baby was this, then? | 0:02:00 | 0:02:02 | |
Was it a neighbour's or...? It was... | 0:02:02 | 0:02:04 | |
No, no, it was, like, a niece... | 0:02:04 | 0:02:06 | |
LIKE a niece? No, no... LAUGHTER | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
Was it a nephew? | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:02:11 | 0:02:12 | |
No, it was a niece. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:13 | |
No, a cousin. Well, it's hard to... | 0:02:13 | 0:02:15 | |
It's a niece. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:17 | |
Why didn't you go to the toilet? Because... | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
I, like, heard... I heard a voice upstairs. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
"LIKE" a voice? Like a voice, yeah. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:26 | |
Like a niece's voice? LAUGHTER | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
It was like the voice of a man, | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
like, of someone who shouldn't have been up there, like... | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
Oh. Like a voice that I didn't know... Yeah. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:34 | |
..and I just got scared. I thought it was a ghost. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:36 | |
So, you heard this voice and you went to investigate? | 0:02:36 | 0:02:38 | |
It was on the baby monitor. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:40 | |
So... What did the voice say? | 0:02:40 | 0:02:42 | |
It said... "Wet yourself." | 0:02:42 | 0:02:44 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:02:44 | 0:02:46 | |
HARRY: Go ahead! | 0:02:46 | 0:02:48 | |
It wasn't an instruction. It was just, like, a voice. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:50 | |
"I'm in the toilet, it's occupied." | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:02:52 | 0:02:54 | |
So, what did the voice say? I can't remember the exact words, but... | 0:02:54 | 0:02:56 | |
Cos you always forget what a ghost says. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:58 | |
Did he speak in English? Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was English. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
What kind of accent? | 0:03:01 | 0:03:02 | |
Like a Northern accent. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
He wasn't going, "Oooooooh!" | 0:03:04 | 0:03:06 | |
He wasn't doing like a typical ghostly noise, | 0:03:06 | 0:03:07 | |
he was just going... | 0:03:07 | 0:03:09 | |
"Ay up." | 0:03:09 | 0:03:10 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:03:10 | 0:03:14 | |
And then did you go upstairs? | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
I went up and... | 0:03:18 | 0:03:19 | |
there was nothing there. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
And did you ever get to the bottom of what this voice was? | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
Yeah, I think what had happened was | 0:03:23 | 0:03:24 | |
the baby monitor had tuned into one of the neighbour's baby monitors. | 0:03:24 | 0:03:28 | |
Oh, yeah. I was just listening to, like, someone three doors down. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:32 | |
When you realised that you'd had an accident | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
because you were frightened... Yeah. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:35 | |
..did you then make any attempt to sort of get changed or...? | 0:03:35 | 0:03:39 | |
No, I still... Can I say, Sara, | 0:03:39 | 0:03:40 | |
it's a lovely line of inquiry | 0:03:40 | 0:03:42 | |
but can I just go a step further | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
and ask the extent of the spillage? | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
Because... | 0:03:47 | 0:03:48 | |
Well, no, no... | 0:03:48 | 0:03:49 | |
There's the full-on, | 0:03:49 | 0:03:51 | |
there's the deluge, then there's something | 0:03:51 | 0:03:53 | |
that some of the more middle-aged men on the panel might... | 0:03:53 | 0:03:55 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:03:55 | 0:03:56 | |
..might be aware of, | 0:03:56 | 0:03:58 | |
which is the sitting and, "Oh, not again." | 0:03:58 | 0:04:00 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:04:00 | 0:04:01 | |
Can I just say - | 0:04:01 | 0:04:03 | |
you're saying this out loud. LAUGHTER | 0:04:03 | 0:04:05 | |
Was it age-related seepage | 0:04:05 | 0:04:08 | |
or did the levee break? | 0:04:08 | 0:04:09 | |
Oh, stop saying "seepage." | 0:04:09 | 0:04:11 | |
Rob, are you hoping to become...? | 0:04:11 | 0:04:12 | |
Cos there are many products for gentlemen of that age | 0:04:12 | 0:04:15 | |
with that problem, | 0:04:15 | 0:04:16 | |
are you hoping to become the face of them? | 0:04:16 | 0:04:17 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:04:17 | 0:04:19 | |
"Only if you're wearing a Brydon will you have real peace of mind." | 0:04:19 | 0:04:22 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:04:22 | 0:04:25 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:04:25 | 0:04:29 | |
Rhymes with Dry-don. | 0:04:29 | 0:04:31 | |
"Stay Dry-don in a Brydon." | 0:04:31 | 0:04:32 | |
There you go. LAUGHTER | 0:04:32 | 0:04:34 | |
Dryd-on? Dried-on. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:36 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:04:36 | 0:04:37 | |
With a Brydon... | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
"With a Brydon, you'll be dried-on." | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:04:42 | 0:04:43 | |
It has, it's dried on. It's dried on. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:47 | |
So, you go up, you get to the niece's bedroom, | 0:04:47 | 0:04:50 | |
you check on her. Yeah. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:51 | |
When does the penny drop? | 0:04:51 | 0:04:53 | |
I went up, grabbed the child, who was asleep in her cot... | 0:04:53 | 0:04:55 | |
Yeah. ..I went out the front door and my... | 0:04:55 | 0:04:58 | |
You actually ran out the house? | 0:04:58 | 0:04:59 | |
Yeah. Yeah, I did. Screaming what? | 0:04:59 | 0:05:01 | |
I didn't scream, Lee, I just... | 0:05:01 | 0:05:02 | |
Well, you've wet yourself. Well... LAUGHTER | 0:05:02 | 0:05:04 | |
Don't try and keep dignity with this story. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:07 | |
"I didn't scream, I just wet my pants." | 0:05:07 | 0:05:09 | |
So, my auntie and uncle just live round the corner, | 0:05:09 | 0:05:11 | |
so I just went round there. And what did you say to them? | 0:05:11 | 0:05:14 | |
"There's a ghost in the house, so I've got the baby." | 0:05:14 | 0:05:16 | |
LAUGHTER And what did they say? | 0:05:16 | 0:05:17 | |
"Have you wet your pants?" | 0:05:17 | 0:05:19 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:05:19 | 0:05:21 | |
So, what's your team thinking? | 0:05:21 | 0:05:22 | |
Harry, does this strike you as the truth? | 0:05:22 | 0:05:24 | |
I'm still back at, "Like a niece, like a nephew". | 0:05:24 | 0:05:28 | |
Yeah, it was unsettling, wasn't it? | 0:05:28 | 0:05:29 | |
A bit. That got me off my feed right there. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:32 | |
So, Harry thinks it's a lie and Sara says it's... | 0:05:32 | 0:05:35 | |
I think, I kind of think it might be true. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:37 | |
Oh, split decisions, I hate them. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:39 | |
Who can persuade me the most? | 0:05:39 | 0:05:41 | |
I think if... I think Smithers could. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:43 | |
Can we make him do the voice, please? | 0:05:43 | 0:05:45 | |
That's early. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:46 | |
Round One. LAUGHTER | 0:05:46 | 0:05:48 | |
I thought, "At least have the dignity | 0:05:48 | 0:05:50 | |
"to wait till the second half." | 0:05:50 | 0:05:51 | |
"Is it truth or a lie?" "Never mind that, do Smithers." | 0:05:51 | 0:05:54 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:05:54 | 0:05:55 | |
I swear, all day... | 0:05:55 | 0:05:57 | |
Now, dance! | 0:05:57 | 0:05:59 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:05:59 | 0:06:01 | |
OK, we'll go with Harry and say it's a lie. | 0:06:01 | 0:06:03 | |
Saying it's a lie. OK. | 0:06:03 | 0:06:05 | |
Jason, truth or lie? | 0:06:05 | 0:06:07 | |
It is... | 0:06:07 | 0:06:09 | |
Oh. APPLAUSE | 0:06:09 | 0:06:14 | |
It is true - Jason did wet himself while baby-sitting a toddler. | 0:06:14 | 0:06:19 | |
Sara, you're next. OK. | 0:06:19 | 0:06:21 | |
"I know how to properly wash a cow." | 0:06:23 | 0:06:25 | |
David's team. | 0:06:27 | 0:06:28 | |
How do you properly wash a cow? | 0:06:28 | 0:06:30 | |
With water... Mm-hmm. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:34 | |
..and soap... Oh. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:36 | |
..and determination. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:37 | |
Why do you have to wash a cow? | 0:06:39 | 0:06:41 | |
Oh, if they get dirty, and... | 0:06:41 | 0:06:43 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:06:43 | 0:06:45 | |
Yeah, you need to wash a cow if you're going to... | 0:06:45 | 0:06:48 | |
If you're going to show your cow, like, at a county show or something. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:51 | |
Oh, right. | 0:06:51 | 0:06:52 | |
What sort of soap would you use for a cow? | 0:06:52 | 0:06:54 | |
A typical soap or was it a special agricultural soap? | 0:06:54 | 0:06:58 | |
Um, you'd use Fairy liquid. | 0:06:58 | 0:07:01 | |
Just the one brand? Just Fairy? | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
I mean you could use a citrusy, lemony-fresh one. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:07:06 | 0:07:08 | |
I think that would make the milk taste lemony. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:11 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:07:11 | 0:07:12 | |
But the steak would be lovely. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:13 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:07:13 | 0:07:15 | |
Yeah, that's true. Yeah. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:16 | |
LEE: Because everyone likes a bit of lemon on their steak, don't they? | 0:07:18 | 0:07:21 | |
LAUGHTER I'd eat that. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:22 | |
Well, yes, Lee. Do they? | 0:07:22 | 0:07:24 | |
They often marinate a sn... | 0:07:24 | 0:07:26 | |
A snake. LAUGHTER | 0:07:26 | 0:07:29 | |
You certainly made me look an idiot there, Rob. I'll give you that. | 0:07:29 | 0:07:32 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:07:32 | 0:07:33 | |
I won't be messing with you again. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:35 | |
Yeah. Yes, Lee, because... | 0:07:35 | 0:07:36 | |
You said, "Snake," you can't do it again! | 0:07:36 | 0:07:38 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:07:38 | 0:07:40 | |
Every time you say it, I'll shout, "Snake!" | 0:07:40 | 0:07:42 | |
So, why did you have to wash a cow? | 0:07:42 | 0:07:43 | |
You marinate a steak... Snake! | 0:07:43 | 0:07:45 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:07:45 | 0:07:47 | |
Save it for tonight when you're in bed with your wife. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:49 | |
"I'm just marinating the snake." | 0:07:49 | 0:07:51 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:07:51 | 0:07:56 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:07:56 | 0:08:00 | |
Why did you have to wash a cow? | 0:08:00 | 0:08:02 | |
Yeah, I washed a cow because my dad's a farmer | 0:08:02 | 0:08:05 | |
and so we would wash the cows and take them to the shows, | 0:08:05 | 0:08:09 | |
the county shows. Arable? | 0:08:09 | 0:08:11 | |
No, he's a nice man. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:12 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:08:12 | 0:08:15 | |
What do you mean, "Arable?" | 0:08:15 | 0:08:17 | |
They're cows! | 0:08:17 | 0:08:18 | |
How can they be arable? LAUGHTER | 0:08:18 | 0:08:20 | |
What does arable mean? | 0:08:20 | 0:08:21 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:08:21 | 0:08:24 | |
Arable is crops. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:26 | |
Yeah, well. Like wheat. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:27 | |
Well, have you never heard...? Not animals. Duh. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:30 | |
Have you never heard of a farmer | 0:08:30 | 0:08:31 | |
who has a little bit of arable | 0:08:31 | 0:08:33 | |
and a little bit of pastoral? | 0:08:33 | 0:08:34 | |
That would be mixed farming, not arable farming. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:36 | |
Which was going to be my THIRD option. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:38 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:08:38 | 0:08:40 | |
What breed of cows were they? | 0:08:40 | 0:08:41 | |
They are, they are the brown and white ones. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:44 | |
Don't get too technical. | 0:08:44 | 0:08:46 | |
They're called Herefords. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:48 | |
ALL: Oh. | 0:08:48 | 0:08:50 | |
What were their names, your cows? | 0:08:50 | 0:08:52 | |
Well, there was a long line of Dianas. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:54 | |
Dianas? Yeah. "Diana, the cow." Diana, the cow. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:56 | |
What do you mean by "long line"? | 0:08:56 | 0:08:58 | |
Well, Diana would have a daughter | 0:08:58 | 0:08:59 | |
and then that'd be another Diana. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:01 | |
And then the initial Diana becomes... | 0:09:01 | 0:09:03 | |
Steak Diana? | 0:09:03 | 0:09:05 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:09:05 | 0:09:06 | |
Ooh. Oh, that's good. Wow. That was so good. | 0:09:06 | 0:09:11 | |
That is a classy pun. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:13 | |
So, David, time to take a guess. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:15 | |
What do you think? Nick? I'm suspicious. | 0:09:15 | 0:09:17 | |
You think it's a lie? | 0:09:17 | 0:09:18 | |
Well, a plausible lie. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:20 | |
Yeah, I think it's a lie. | 0:09:20 | 0:09:21 | |
If you both think it's a lie... | 0:09:21 | 0:09:23 | |
I'm afraid so. Yep. Yep. We're going to go, "Lie." | 0:09:23 | 0:09:25 | |
You're going to say, "Lie"? OK. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 | |
Sara, truth or lie? | 0:09:27 | 0:09:29 | |
It's... | 0:09:29 | 0:09:30 | |
APPLAUSE Yes! | 0:09:30 | 0:09:33 | |
Yes, it's true, Sara does know how to wash a cow. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:39 | |
Our next round is called "This Is My," | 0:09:39 | 0:09:41 | |
where we bring on a mystery guest | 0:09:41 | 0:09:43 | |
who has a close connection to one of our panellists. | 0:09:43 | 0:09:45 | |
Now, this week, each of David's team will claim it's them | 0:09:45 | 0:09:48 | |
that has the genuine connection to the guest. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:50 | |
It's up to Lee's team to spot who's telling the truth. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:53 | |
So, please welcome this week's special guest, Claire. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:56 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:09:56 | 0:10:00 | |
So, Nick... | 0:10:04 | 0:10:06 | |
what is Claire to you? | 0:10:06 | 0:10:08 | |
Well, this is Claire. | 0:10:08 | 0:10:09 | |
I was once so peckish | 0:10:09 | 0:10:11 | |
that I broke into her cottage | 0:10:11 | 0:10:14 | |
to steal a tube of Pringles. | 0:10:14 | 0:10:15 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:10:15 | 0:10:16 | |
Jason, how do you know Claire? | 0:10:16 | 0:10:18 | |
This is Claire. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:20 | |
I once called her to drive my car | 0:10:20 | 0:10:22 | |
from the roof of a multistorey car park | 0:10:22 | 0:10:25 | |
because I was too scared to. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:27 | |
LAUGHTER Right. | 0:10:27 | 0:10:29 | |
David, what is your relationship with Claire? | 0:10:29 | 0:10:31 | |
This is Claire, and she is my dentist | 0:10:31 | 0:10:33 | |
whose earring I swallowed | 0:10:33 | 0:10:35 | |
mid-procedure. | 0:10:35 | 0:10:37 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:10:37 | 0:10:39 | |
Well, there we have it. | 0:10:39 | 0:10:41 | |
Is Claire Nick's burgled buddy, | 0:10:41 | 0:10:43 | |
Jason's multistorey mate, | 0:10:43 | 0:10:45 | |
or David's dozy dentist? | 0:10:45 | 0:10:48 | |
Lee's team, where do you start? | 0:10:48 | 0:10:49 | |
Jason, let's start with you. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:51 | |
How old were you? Um, I was... | 0:10:51 | 0:10:53 | |
like, 20. Have you just started driving at this point? | 0:10:53 | 0:10:56 | |
Yeah, I'd just passed, so... | 0:10:56 | 0:10:57 | |
So you'd managed to get to the top... Yeah, yeah. | 0:10:57 | 0:11:00 | |
Why did you find going down worse than going up? | 0:11:00 | 0:11:02 | |
It was a different way down than it was coming up - | 0:11:02 | 0:11:04 | |
one of them really tight spirals, where you... | 0:11:04 | 0:11:07 | |
But it was a spiral going up, too, wasn't it? | 0:11:07 | 0:11:09 | |
No, it was up the ramp and then along the car park, | 0:11:09 | 0:11:11 | |
and then up the next ramp and then along the car park, so... | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
Did you know Claire before? | 0:11:13 | 0:11:14 | |
Who is she? What's the relationship? She's my friend's mum. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:17 | |
Friend's mum? Yeah, yeah. Auntie, niece? | 0:11:17 | 0:11:19 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:11:19 | 0:11:20 | |
Which friend? Steve. | 0:11:20 | 0:11:22 | |
Oh, so Steve... Is Steve your age? | 0:11:22 | 0:11:24 | |
Steve's my age, yeah. And that's...? | 0:11:24 | 0:11:26 | |
I mean, you look about the same age. | 0:11:26 | 0:11:28 | |
And that's the mum? LAUGHTER | 0:11:28 | 0:11:30 | |
She's, like, 55. | 0:11:30 | 0:11:32 | |
AUDIENCE: Ooh! Oh, I don't know. | 0:11:32 | 0:11:34 | |
I tell you what, Jason, | 0:11:34 | 0:11:35 | |
if it's not your person and you're not telling the truth... | 0:11:35 | 0:11:37 | |
No, I know her. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:38 | |
..this is going to be a hell of a green room conversation, isn't it? | 0:11:38 | 0:11:41 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:11:41 | 0:11:42 | |
She looks phenomenal for it, I'm just saying. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:45 | |
HARRY CHUCKLES | 0:11:45 | 0:11:47 | |
Keep going. | 0:11:47 | 0:11:48 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:11:48 | 0:11:50 | |
Why did you call Claire of all people? | 0:11:50 | 0:11:53 | |
Claire worked... | 0:11:53 | 0:11:54 | |
Oh, where I parked was at the Arndale Centre in Manchester, | 0:11:54 | 0:11:57 | |
and Claire works there. What does Claire do? | 0:11:57 | 0:11:59 | |
Where does she work? Oh, I think it's, like, the jewellers, | 0:11:59 | 0:12:01 | |
one of the jewellers in... | 0:12:01 | 0:12:02 | |
SARA: Hang on a minute, how did you ring her? | 0:12:02 | 0:12:04 | |
Just on my phone. On your mobile? | 0:12:04 | 0:12:06 | |
Yeah. What, 20 years ago? | 0:12:06 | 0:12:07 | |
It wasn't 20... Come on, hey. | 0:12:07 | 0:12:09 | |
Come on now. 18 years ago? | 0:12:09 | 0:12:11 | |
It was... See, not nice, is it? | 0:12:11 | 0:12:13 | |
JASON AND ROB: 14 years ago. | 0:12:13 | 0:12:15 | |
14 years ago. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:16 | |
Jason is 34. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:17 | |
You're 34? Yeah. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:19 | |
That's not even a lie. | 0:12:19 | 0:12:20 | |
True! | 0:12:20 | 0:12:21 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:12:21 | 0:12:23 | |
Wow, have you had a really hard life? | 0:12:23 | 0:12:25 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:12:25 | 0:12:26 | |
Yeah. And you had Claire's work number on your cellphone? | 0:12:26 | 0:12:31 | |
She had a mobile number as well. | 0:12:31 | 0:12:32 | |
I had, like, Steve's mum's number. | 0:12:32 | 0:12:34 | |
You had your mate's mum's number on your mobile? | 0:12:34 | 0:12:37 | |
Yes, I had my friend's mum's number. | 0:12:37 | 0:12:39 | |
What have you got it down as, Sweet-cheeks Claire or...? | 0:12:39 | 0:12:42 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:12:42 | 0:12:43 | |
"Steve's mum." OK, who would you like to question next? | 0:12:43 | 0:12:47 | |
OK, Nick. | 0:12:47 | 0:12:48 | |
So, you broke into this lady's house... | 0:12:48 | 0:12:50 | |
for Pringles, did you say? | 0:12:50 | 0:12:52 | |
You mean the crisp or the jumper? | 0:12:52 | 0:12:55 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:12:55 | 0:12:56 | |
So, where did all this happen, Nick? | 0:12:56 | 0:12:58 | |
Paint the picture for us, where are we? | 0:12:58 | 0:13:00 | |
We're on holiday. We're on holiday. Where? | 0:13:00 | 0:13:02 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:13:03 | 0:13:05 | |
People at home are now banging the TV. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:07 | |
Somebody hit pause. LAUGHTER | 0:13:07 | 0:13:09 | |
Where were you? | 0:13:09 | 0:13:10 | |
I was in Italy. | 0:13:10 | 0:13:12 | |
Italy! Italy. | 0:13:12 | 0:13:14 | |
Well, that's narrowed it down. Where in Italy were you? | 0:13:14 | 0:13:16 | |
I was in... | 0:13:17 | 0:13:18 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:13:18 | 0:13:20 | |
Pardon? Pause. | 0:13:20 | 0:13:21 | |
I'll give you a clue, it could be Rome. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:24 | |
Rome? | 0:13:24 | 0:13:25 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:13:25 | 0:13:27 | |
Milan? Venice? Florence? That's just... | 0:13:27 | 0:13:28 | |
Near Florence. Near Florence. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:30 | |
How do you and Claire know each other? | 0:13:30 | 0:13:32 | |
She was also on holiday. | 0:13:32 | 0:13:33 | |
But I want to know, did you know Claire before you went to Italy? | 0:13:33 | 0:13:36 | |
I did. So, you're near Florence, you've got... | 0:13:36 | 0:13:38 | |
What, you've hired some cottages close to each other? | 0:13:38 | 0:13:41 | |
Yeah, we're... Exactly. And what happens? | 0:13:41 | 0:13:42 | |
I'm in my cottage, raiding the larder... | 0:13:42 | 0:13:45 | |
Yes. ..looking for things to eat, | 0:13:45 | 0:13:47 | |
and I thought, "I know what I need." | 0:13:47 | 0:13:49 | |
Right. Crunchy Nut Corn Flakes. Eh, Rob? | 0:13:49 | 0:13:51 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:13:51 | 0:13:53 | |
They are ludicrously tasty. | 0:13:53 | 0:13:54 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:13:54 | 0:13:59 | |
So, how did you get into the cottage? | 0:13:59 | 0:14:01 | |
I sort of tried the... You know how you get blinds on a holiday cottage, | 0:14:01 | 0:14:04 | |
those sort of shutters, that's the word I'm after. Yeah. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:06 | |
So, I tried the shutters. | 0:14:06 | 0:14:08 | |
Spotting that one was open, I thought, | 0:14:08 | 0:14:10 | |
"I tell you what, I could probably... | 0:14:10 | 0:14:12 | |
"squeeze in." What time of day was this? | 0:14:12 | 0:14:14 | |
Just before lunch. So, you got in through the window... | 0:14:14 | 0:14:17 | |
Why didn't you wait for lunch, then? LAUGHTER | 0:14:17 | 0:14:20 | |
Nice work. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:23 | |
So the shutter is a little bit open, | 0:14:23 | 0:14:25 | |
but isn't, on the other side of a shutter, a glass window? | 0:14:25 | 0:14:27 | |
Yeah, but it wasn't locked. She's not security-conscious, this woman. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:30 | |
I'm surprised she's working on a jewellery counter, to be honest. | 0:14:30 | 0:14:33 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:14:33 | 0:14:35 | |
Or have I got these stories mixed up? There we go. | 0:14:35 | 0:14:38 | |
How did you get out of the cottage? | 0:14:38 | 0:14:39 | |
I opened the door... You opened the door. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:41 | |
..and I surreptitiously, | 0:14:41 | 0:14:43 | |
hiding the Pringles tube down my shorts, I... | 0:14:43 | 0:14:45 | |
Baguette? My wife said, | 0:14:45 | 0:14:47 | |
"Are those curiously shaped crisps or are you just pleased to see me?" | 0:14:47 | 0:14:50 | |
LAUGHTER What was it? Did you never...? | 0:14:50 | 0:14:52 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:14:52 | 0:14:55 | |
Why didn't you go to the shop? | 0:14:55 | 0:14:56 | |
Cos we were on a holiday, we weren't near a shop. | 0:14:56 | 0:14:58 | |
Why did you go on holiday at a place that's not near a shop? | 0:14:58 | 0:15:01 | |
JASON: That's not a prerequisite of a holiday, is it? | 0:15:01 | 0:15:03 | |
Are there shops, though? That's what I need to know. | 0:15:03 | 0:15:05 | |
Never mind the view. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:07 | |
What I'm hoping for is a Londis a two-minute walk away. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:09 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:15:09 | 0:15:11 | |
And then did you tell Claire what happened | 0:15:11 | 0:15:13 | |
or are you telling her this now on the telly | 0:15:13 | 0:15:16 | |
and she's finding it out for the very first time? | 0:15:16 | 0:15:18 | |
That would be a brilliant phone call. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:20 | |
"We'd like you to come along to see your old friend Nick." | 0:15:20 | 0:15:22 | |
"Why?" "There's something he wants to tell you." | 0:15:22 | 0:15:24 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:15:24 | 0:15:26 | |
When did she find out? | 0:15:26 | 0:15:27 | |
I think my children revealed the secret. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:29 | |
Wouldn't it have been easier to have one of them go through the window? | 0:15:29 | 0:15:32 | |
That is a very good point. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:34 | |
Why didn't you do that, Fagin? | 0:15:34 | 0:15:36 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:15:36 | 0:15:40 | |
All right now, what about David? | 0:15:40 | 0:15:42 | |
David, can you just remind us again how you know Claire? | 0:15:42 | 0:15:44 | |
This is Claire and she's my dentist... | 0:15:44 | 0:15:46 | |
Oh, yes. | 0:15:46 | 0:15:48 | |
..whose earring I accidentally swallowed mid-procedure. | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
OK. All right. What kind of earring was it? | 0:15:51 | 0:15:53 | |
It was just a stud. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:55 | |
What was the procedure? | 0:15:55 | 0:15:57 | |
It was a dental... | 0:15:57 | 0:15:59 | |
A dental procedure. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:00 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:16:00 | 0:16:02 | |
It was actually, it was a cleaning. | 0:16:02 | 0:16:04 | |
Not a polishing, a cleaning. | 0:16:04 | 0:16:06 | |
I won't clean my teeth myself. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:07 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:16:07 | 0:16:09 | |
So you pay her at a dentists' rate to do hygienist's work. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:12 | |
I want an expert. | 0:16:12 | 0:16:14 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:16:14 | 0:16:15 | |
I get a brain surgeon to clean behind my ears. | 0:16:15 | 0:16:18 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:16:18 | 0:16:20 | |
What made it suddenly just fall out? | 0:16:20 | 0:16:22 | |
Cos that just doesn't happen. Did you grab at her in terror? | 0:16:22 | 0:16:25 | |
No, I didn't, no... | 0:16:25 | 0:16:26 | |
"Help! I'm scared!" | 0:16:26 | 0:16:28 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:16:28 | 0:16:32 | |
You make me seem so sexy. | 0:16:33 | 0:16:36 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:16:36 | 0:16:39 | |
No, I think it was just simply gravity. | 0:16:39 | 0:16:41 | |
Something has to ruffle your ears... | 0:16:41 | 0:16:43 | |
Yes. You have to... | 0:16:43 | 0:16:45 | |
Oh, David, you didn't! | 0:16:45 | 0:16:46 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:16:46 | 0:16:48 | |
Goodness sake, man. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:50 | |
You can't blame it on the novocaine, | 0:16:50 | 0:16:52 | |
you knew what you were doing. LAUGHTER | 0:16:52 | 0:16:55 | |
So, you're laying back... | 0:16:55 | 0:16:57 | |
Yeah. ..in the dentist's chair, or the hygienist's, chair... Yes. | 0:16:57 | 0:17:00 | |
..and she's leaning over you to use the cleaning apparatus. Yeah. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:05 | |
It's hard to swallow even liquid | 0:17:05 | 0:17:07 | |
when the hygienist is working in your mouth. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:11 | |
Mm-hmm. How did you manage to swallow an earring? | 0:17:11 | 0:17:14 | |
Well, I didn't try to. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:15 | |
It just went... | 0:17:15 | 0:17:17 | |
And I felt just a slight... | 0:17:17 | 0:17:19 | |
So, you didn't...? I felt... You didn't swallow at the time? | 0:17:19 | 0:17:22 | |
I felt nothing more than a sort of... | 0:17:22 | 0:17:23 | |
No, I didn't go, "Ooh! Mmmm." | 0:17:23 | 0:17:25 | |
HE GULPS | 0:17:25 | 0:17:26 | |
So, you swallowed the earring - | 0:17:26 | 0:17:28 | |
do you get the earring back | 0:17:28 | 0:17:30 | |
and give it to Claire at your next appointment? | 0:17:30 | 0:17:32 | |
That's a good question. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:34 | |
Did it ever get back to Claire? | 0:17:34 | 0:17:35 | |
It did not. | 0:17:35 | 0:17:37 | |
Did it...? I'm sorry, I wasn't prepared to do that. | 0:17:37 | 0:17:40 | |
Were you sat on the toilet at any point | 0:17:40 | 0:17:42 | |
and there was a sort of definitive... Ping! | 0:17:42 | 0:17:45 | |
..a definite clink noise as metal hit porcelain? | 0:17:45 | 0:17:46 | |
No. I think it must've been deeply embedded in... | 0:17:46 | 0:17:49 | |
AUDIENCE GROANS | 0:17:49 | 0:17:55 | |
When you... Hang on. Give us a minute. | 0:17:55 | 0:17:57 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:17:57 | 0:18:00 | |
It must have come out, you know, mid-log. Yeah. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:03 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:18:03 | 0:18:04 | |
You could've at least used it | 0:18:04 | 0:18:06 | |
for a very unusual game of pass the parcel. | 0:18:06 | 0:18:08 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:18:08 | 0:18:11 | |
Is "unusual"...? | 0:18:11 | 0:18:13 | |
Is "unusual" the adjective you want to use? | 0:18:13 | 0:18:16 | |
It's probably not the right word. | 0:18:16 | 0:18:18 | |
"Unusual's" probably not a strong enough word. | 0:18:18 | 0:18:20 | |
"Sorry, kids, the clown's cancelled | 0:18:20 | 0:18:23 | |
"but in better news, David's brought his little thing..." | 0:18:23 | 0:18:26 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:18:26 | 0:18:28 | |
"Start the music." | 0:18:28 | 0:18:30 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:18:30 | 0:18:32 | |
"I don't even want the earring." | 0:18:32 | 0:18:34 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:18:34 | 0:18:39 | |
All right, well, we need an answer. | 0:18:39 | 0:18:42 | |
What do we think? Cos I... | 0:18:42 | 0:18:44 | |
They're all sounding unbelievable to me. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:46 | |
I tend to believe Jason. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:48 | |
Jason, you think he panicked getting out of the car park. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:51 | |
Yeah. Sara, what do we think? Well, I don't know. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:53 | |
I don't know if Nick was being vague on purpose | 0:18:53 | 0:18:55 | |
about where the cottage was. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:57 | |
When they come to him outside Number Ten, | 0:18:57 | 0:18:59 | |
have you ever noticed some, like, crumbs of crisps | 0:18:59 | 0:19:01 | |
just falling from his mouth at the last minute before he goes...? | 0:19:01 | 0:19:03 | |
And in the background, a slightly opened window. Yes. | 0:19:03 | 0:19:06 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:19:06 | 0:19:08 | |
What about David, though? I mean, you're not even... | 0:19:08 | 0:19:10 | |
Oh, we're actually entertaining that? | 0:19:10 | 0:19:13 | |
So, what are you going to say? I say, "Jason." You say, "Jason." | 0:19:13 | 0:19:16 | |
Oh, I'm drawn towards Nick's story being true, | 0:19:16 | 0:19:18 | |
but I'm not... I don't know, I'm happy to go with the boss man here. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:21 | |
I think we might have to go with Jason. | 0:19:21 | 0:19:23 | |
You're going to say it's Jason. | 0:19:23 | 0:19:24 | |
OK. Claire, | 0:19:24 | 0:19:25 | |
would you please reveal your true identity? | 0:19:25 | 0:19:28 | |
My name is Claire, | 0:19:28 | 0:19:29 | |
and Nick stole my Pringles. | 0:19:29 | 0:19:31 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:19:31 | 0:19:35 | |
Thank you very much, Claire. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:39 | |
I'm really sorry. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:42 | |
Which brings us to our final round, | 0:19:42 | 0:19:44 | |
Quick Fire Lies. | 0:19:44 | 0:19:45 | |
And we start with... | 0:19:45 | 0:19:46 | |
It's Lee. | 0:19:49 | 0:19:51 | |
"Possession." | 0:19:51 | 0:19:53 | |
Lee, if you step out from behind the desk, | 0:19:53 | 0:19:55 | |
read the card first. | 0:19:55 | 0:19:57 | |
"When I ran out of petrol with my kids in the car, | 0:19:57 | 0:20:01 | |
"the only way I could get to the nearest garage quickly was on this." | 0:20:01 | 0:20:05 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:20:05 | 0:20:10 | |
Yeah. | 0:20:10 | 0:20:11 | |
Pop that down there, sir. Brilliant. | 0:20:11 | 0:20:14 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:20:14 | 0:20:16 | |
So, where did you break down? | 0:20:16 | 0:20:18 | |
I broke down just after this round, crying. | 0:20:18 | 0:20:21 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:20:21 | 0:20:23 | |
It was a country lane. Whereabouts in the world? | 0:20:23 | 0:20:26 | |
It was just somewhere around Oxfordshire. | 0:20:26 | 0:20:28 | |
You're from Oxfordshire, aren't you? Yes. Let's change that. Uh... | 0:20:28 | 0:20:31 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:20:31 | 0:20:32 | |
I was somewhere just around Oxfordshire. | 0:20:32 | 0:20:34 | |
And this was in the car? | 0:20:34 | 0:20:35 | |
This was not in the car. This belonged to a farmer. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:38 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:20:38 | 0:20:40 | |
It belonged to a farmer? | 0:20:40 | 0:20:41 | |
The smallest, campest farmer you can imagine. | 0:20:41 | 0:20:44 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:20:44 | 0:20:46 | |
So I run out of petrol, we're in the middle of nowhere, | 0:20:46 | 0:20:48 | |
I pull over, near the hedgerow bit... | 0:20:48 | 0:20:49 | |
Yep. ..and then I remembered passing a petrol station back there. | 0:20:49 | 0:20:52 | |
How far? A mile, half a mile? | 0:20:52 | 0:20:54 | |
About a mile and a half. A mile and a half. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:56 | |
A mile and a half? | 0:20:56 | 0:20:57 | |
And you didn't just think, "I'll walk a mile and a half." | 0:20:57 | 0:21:00 | |
Well, it's not, it's three miles, isn't it? | 0:21:00 | 0:21:01 | |
Cos you've got to get back as well. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:03 | |
That's true. He's got you there, hasn't he? Yes. | 0:21:03 | 0:21:05 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:21:05 | 0:21:07 | |
But I have to say... What with you all Oxbridge and everything | 0:21:07 | 0:21:10 | |
and him having no education, that's quite embarrassing. | 0:21:10 | 0:21:12 | |
LAUGHTER Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. | 0:21:12 | 0:21:16 | |
Hang on. | 0:21:16 | 0:21:18 | |
But still, three miles, that's not that far. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:20 | |
Three miles is a long way | 0:21:20 | 0:21:21 | |
when you've got children in the car, crying. | 0:21:21 | 0:21:24 | |
Well, hold on, then, if you did three miles on it, | 0:21:24 | 0:21:26 | |
you can definitely do four yards, | 0:21:26 | 0:21:27 | |
so let's have a look at you on the bike. | 0:21:27 | 0:21:30 | |
And then... Let me finish the story. | 0:21:30 | 0:21:31 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:21:31 | 0:21:33 | |
..I remember, as I came back with the petrol canister, | 0:21:33 | 0:21:35 | |
falling off and damaging my leg, | 0:21:35 | 0:21:37 | |
and vowing that day never... LAUGHTER | 0:21:37 | 0:21:40 | |
..ever to ride one of these beasts again. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:42 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:21:42 | 0:21:44 | |
Would you like me to demonstrate me riding the bike? | 0:21:44 | 0:21:47 | |
I think so. I'm going to kill you for this. | 0:21:47 | 0:21:49 | |
LAUGHTER Go round the back... Yes. | 0:21:49 | 0:21:51 | |
..round the side of Sara, you can do it from there. | 0:21:51 | 0:21:53 | |
OK, I'm not feeling as young as I used to be, | 0:21:53 | 0:21:55 | |
so I may not be able to do a wheelie. | 0:21:55 | 0:21:57 | |
Right. | 0:21:57 | 0:21:58 | |
Is it all coming back? | 0:21:58 | 0:21:59 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:21:59 | 0:22:00 | |
And he had a petrol can as well, of course. | 0:22:00 | 0:22:03 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:22:03 | 0:22:05 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:22:05 | 0:22:08 | |
That's it, keep going, keep going. | 0:22:13 | 0:22:15 | |
Over the ramp, over the ramp. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:18 | |
I've got the petrol can. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:20 | |
It's all... Ow! | 0:22:20 | 0:22:21 | |
I've gone over the... | 0:22:21 | 0:22:23 | |
I've got the petrol can. | 0:22:23 | 0:22:25 | |
I'm coming, kids! Kids, I'm coming, stop crying! | 0:22:25 | 0:22:29 | |
Tell your mother not to divorce me, I've got the can! | 0:22:29 | 0:22:31 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:22:31 | 0:22:35 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:22:35 | 0:22:38 | |
Now I can see it would have been a big help. | 0:22:42 | 0:22:44 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:22:44 | 0:22:47 | |
Can I make a comment? Yeah. You're very out of breath. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:49 | |
Yes, I am. And you've done one lap of this. | 0:22:49 | 0:22:53 | |
Now you're telling us that you cycled three miles. Yes. | 0:22:53 | 0:22:57 | |
Do you remember having a coronary arrest at the end of the journey? | 0:22:57 | 0:23:00 | |
I was a lot younger in those days. | 0:23:00 | 0:23:02 | |
Why, when was it? This was just after Christmas. | 0:23:02 | 0:23:05 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:23:05 | 0:23:07 | |
Lee, what are you doing? | 0:23:07 | 0:23:09 | |
I'm thinking, in a minute, | 0:23:09 | 0:23:10 | |
I'm going to go wheelie the bike to the edge... | 0:23:10 | 0:23:12 | |
They're saying in my ear, "It seems like a very bad idea." | 0:23:12 | 0:23:15 | |
I say, "Let him have a go." | 0:23:15 | 0:23:16 | |
Oh, they're saying to YOU this is a bad idea! | 0:23:16 | 0:23:18 | |
How do you think I feel? LAUGHTER | 0:23:18 | 0:23:21 | |
What, you mean the same people that said, | 0:23:21 | 0:23:23 | |
"Pretend you stole a child's bike and went to a petrol station," | 0:23:23 | 0:23:26 | |
and they're saying I'M the one with the bad idea(!) | 0:23:26 | 0:23:29 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:23:29 | 0:23:30 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:23:30 | 0:23:37 | |
Can I just say, Rob... Come here. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:40 | |
You with your little body, come on. | 0:23:40 | 0:23:42 | |
LAUGHTER Come on. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:45 | |
CHEERING | 0:23:45 | 0:23:49 | |
Will you help me on to it? | 0:23:50 | 0:23:52 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:23:52 | 0:23:53 | |
Right, I'll sit here and do the easy bit. | 0:23:53 | 0:23:56 | |
IN WELSH ACCENT: Right, I think I'm just going to make him | 0:23:56 | 0:23:58 | |
cycle around for a while. | 0:23:58 | 0:24:00 | |
I'm doing Rob Brydon. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:01 | |
Oh! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE | 0:24:01 | 0:24:04 | |
LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE | 0:24:04 | 0:24:12 | |
Fair play. | 0:24:12 | 0:24:14 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:24:14 | 0:24:16 | |
Do you want me to help you on to the seat? | 0:24:16 | 0:24:18 | |
Come on, up, jump! | 0:24:18 | 0:24:19 | |
Thank you. APPLAUSE | 0:24:21 | 0:24:23 | |
So, while Lee brings that huge bike back up... | 0:24:23 | 0:24:26 | |
..what are you thinking? | 0:24:28 | 0:24:29 | |
Stop me if you object, but I think we're going to say that it's a lie. | 0:24:29 | 0:24:33 | |
You're saying it's a lie. All right. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:35 | |
Yeah. It is, in fact... | 0:24:35 | 0:24:37 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:24:40 | 0:24:43 | |
Yes, it's a lie. | 0:24:43 | 0:24:44 | |
Lee didn't ride a child's bike to a petrol station. | 0:24:44 | 0:24:47 | |
Stupid game! | 0:24:49 | 0:24:50 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:24:50 | 0:24:52 | |
Next. | 0:24:52 | 0:24:54 | |
It's Harry. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:56 | |
"At a White House drinks reception, | 0:24:57 | 0:24:59 | |
"I was asked to judge who could do the best Mr Burns impression | 0:24:59 | 0:25:02 | |
"out of Barack Obama, Bill Clinton and Bono." | 0:25:02 | 0:25:06 | |
Oh, please be true, please be true. | 0:25:08 | 0:25:10 | |
This is the best thing we've ever had. | 0:25:10 | 0:25:11 | |
Yes! | 0:25:11 | 0:25:13 | |
What was the occasion? | 0:25:13 | 0:25:14 | |
They were honouring music, musicians... | 0:25:14 | 0:25:17 | |
It's a... | 0:25:17 | 0:25:18 | |
They have about four or five of these a year at the White House. | 0:25:18 | 0:25:21 | |
And why was there a Mr Burns... | 0:25:21 | 0:25:24 | |
a competition to sound like Mr Burns at a musical event? | 0:25:24 | 0:25:27 | |
I was there, | 0:25:27 | 0:25:30 | |
and I think they thought it would be a cute idea to have me, you know, | 0:25:30 | 0:25:33 | |
judge the thing because people are always ASKING me | 0:25:33 | 0:25:35 | |
to do these voice things. | 0:25:35 | 0:25:37 | |
Do you generally say no when people ask? | 0:25:37 | 0:25:39 | |
No, I don't. Good. Do it. | 0:25:39 | 0:25:41 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:25:41 | 0:25:44 | |
I mean I'd rather not ride a miniature pink bike... Yeah. | 0:25:44 | 0:25:46 | |
..but, you know, we all go with the cards we're dealt. | 0:25:46 | 0:25:48 | |
All right, so I will tell you about your riding the pink bike, | 0:25:48 | 0:25:51 | |
that you were... | 0:25:51 | 0:25:53 | |
AS MR BURNS: Excellent. | 0:25:53 | 0:25:54 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:25:54 | 0:26:00 | |
One word gets a round of applause. | 0:26:00 | 0:26:02 | |
I cycled round twice... LAUGHTER | 0:26:02 | 0:26:05 | |
..and I'm mocked. | 0:26:05 | 0:26:06 | |
And were they, like, the finalists? | 0:26:06 | 0:26:08 | |
They were the finalists, yes. | 0:26:08 | 0:26:09 | |
What did they get to say? | 0:26:09 | 0:26:11 | |
AS MR BURNS: "Release the hounds," | 0:26:11 | 0:26:13 | |
"Excellent," | 0:26:13 | 0:26:15 | |
and, uh, I think a couple more. | 0:26:15 | 0:26:16 | |
And who was the best? | 0:26:16 | 0:26:18 | |
I judged Barack Obama the best. | 0:26:18 | 0:26:20 | |
Very wise. Yeah. | 0:26:20 | 0:26:22 | |
LAUGHTER He's... | 0:26:22 | 0:26:24 | |
It was his house. Yeah, absolutely. | 0:26:24 | 0:26:25 | |
Whereas Bono...? | 0:26:25 | 0:26:26 | |
His Burns was a little too breathy, I thought. | 0:26:26 | 0:26:30 | |
Could you give us an approximation of Bono's Burns? | 0:26:30 | 0:26:32 | |
DEEP AND BREATHY: "Release the hounds, | 0:26:32 | 0:26:34 | |
"release the hounds." Something like that. | 0:26:34 | 0:26:36 | |
IN MOCK IRISH ACCENT: "Oh, release d'hounds, release d'hounds, | 0:26:36 | 0:26:38 | |
"release, release d'hounds." | 0:26:38 | 0:26:40 | |
Something like that? No, it wasn't like that. | 0:26:40 | 0:26:42 | |
And what about...? Tom Jones? | 0:26:42 | 0:26:44 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:26:44 | 0:26:47 | |
HE CLEARS HIS THROAT | 0:26:47 | 0:26:48 | |
AS TOM JONES: "Release...the hounds." | 0:26:48 | 0:26:50 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:26:50 | 0:26:54 | |
And what about... Bill Clinton. | 0:26:54 | 0:26:56 | |
AS CLINTON: ..Bill Clinton? | 0:26:56 | 0:26:57 | |
AS CLINTON: "Well, you've gotta release the hounds now." | 0:26:57 | 0:27:00 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:27:00 | 0:27:02 | |
AS CLINTON: I did not... | 0:27:02 | 0:27:04 | |
release... | 0:27:04 | 0:27:05 | |
those hounds... | 0:27:05 | 0:27:06 | |
With that woman. ..with that woman. | 0:27:06 | 0:27:08 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:27:08 | 0:27:11 | |
David, what are you thinking about that? | 0:27:11 | 0:27:13 | |
Nick, you know how the centres of power operate - | 0:27:13 | 0:27:16 | |
is this kind of ado... | 0:27:16 | 0:27:18 | |
It's totally plausible. It's plausible that they'd have a... | 0:27:18 | 0:27:21 | |
competition like that? | 0:27:21 | 0:27:22 | |
I think so. They wouldn't...? | 0:27:22 | 0:27:24 | |
Obama, Clinton get on well. | 0:27:24 | 0:27:25 | |
Yeah, yeah. Bono's everywhere, isn't he? | 0:27:25 | 0:27:27 | |
Bono's always there. He's like Mickey Mouse, | 0:27:27 | 0:27:29 | |
there's one in each continent. | 0:27:29 | 0:27:31 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:27:31 | 0:27:32 | |
I think he's telling the truth. Yeah? | 0:27:32 | 0:27:34 | |
Well, I think, you know, we... You all say, "True?" | 0:27:34 | 0:27:36 | |
..can't imagine a party at the White House, really. | 0:27:36 | 0:27:38 | |
We can't imagine what that would be like. | 0:27:38 | 0:27:41 | |
I mean, you've been to Buckingham Palace, haven't you? | 0:27:41 | 0:27:43 | |
I've been to a buffet at Dale Winton's house, that's about as... | 0:27:43 | 0:27:46 | |
LAUGHTER That's as close as I've got. | 0:27:46 | 0:27:48 | |
All right, what are you going to say? I think we're saying it's true. | 0:27:48 | 0:27:51 | |
You're saying it's true? OK. Yeah. Harry Shearer, truth or lie? | 0:27:51 | 0:27:54 | |
AS SMITHERS: "Sir, you have to tell them now." | 0:27:54 | 0:27:56 | |
AS MR BURNS: "All right, I will." | 0:27:56 | 0:27:58 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:27:58 | 0:28:00 | |
Don't rush it, cos I want to hear that again. | 0:28:00 | 0:28:02 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:28:02 | 0:28:04 | |
AS MR BURNS: "It was..." | 0:28:04 | 0:28:06 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:28:06 | 0:28:09 | |
BUZZER | 0:28:11 | 0:28:13 | |
Well, that noise signals time is up and it's the end of the show, | 0:28:13 | 0:28:15 | |
and I can reveal that David's team | 0:28:15 | 0:28:17 | |
have won by three points to two. | 0:28:17 | 0:28:19 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:28:19 | 0:28:21 | |
Thanks for watching. Goodnight. | 0:28:21 | 0:28:23 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:28:23 | 0:28:26 | |
Unparalleled talent, unprecedented access. | 0:28:49 | 0:28:51 | |
BBC Two takes a sneaky peek behind the celebrity curtain. | 0:28:51 | 0:28:54 | |
One piece of advice... | 0:28:54 | 0:28:56 | |
Go out there, grab it with both hands and stick it in your mouth. | 0:28:56 | 0:28:59 | |
