telling the people in Europe and around the world Blue are back. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:20 | |

it is a case of everyone voting for each other. | 0:12:46 | 0:12:49 | |
It's not all about the song. | 0:12:49 | 0:12:51 | |
We did really, really well, and we're just... Me personally, | 0:12:51 | 0:12:54 | |
we're pleased to be back. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:56 | |

It might be, there was a clue in the initials. | 0:15:21 | 0:15:24 | |

-You've now got, Antony, 15 points. -Thank you. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:44 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:15:44 | 0:15:47 | |
And Jay Rayner again now, please. | 0:15:54 | 0:15:57 | |
I sort of feel I have to apologise for this first question | 0:15:57 | 0:16:00 | |
because you must be asked it a million times | 0:16:00 | 0:16:03 | |
but nonetheless, you go into a restaurant, they know who you are, | 0:16:03 | 0:16:06 | |
they either prepare the best possible meal for you or they spit in it. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:10 | |
I book under a pseudonym, they don't know I'm coming and I turn up. | 0:16:10 | 0:16:13 | |
So at that point they know I'm there. | 0:16:13 | 0:16:15 | |
There was a colleague of mine who once uttered a brilliant line, | 0:16:15 | 0:16:18 | |
he said, I've yet to find a bad restaurant that becomes a good one because I turn up. | 0:16:18 | 0:16:22 | |
And so, actually, I genuinely don't think there's that much they can do. They do try ruses. | 0:16:22 | 0:16:27 | |
A classic one is if you send the bill back because there is something wrong with it, | 0:16:27 | 0:16:31 | |
it'll be to get things taken off you didn't have, | 0:16:31 | 0:16:33 | |
with me, it is generally to get things put on I did have. | 0:16:33 | 0:16:36 | |
They leave things off the bill to try to... | 0:16:36 | 0:16:38 | |
They try to butter you up. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:39 | |
Try to make it look cheaper than it is. | 0:16:39 | 0:16:41 | |
Doesn't there come a point when you've got to say | 0:16:41 | 0:16:45 | |
I've become bigger than this job? | 0:16:45 | 0:16:47 | |
What are you saying?! I work out all the time! | 0:16:47 | 0:16:51 | |
I said bigger, not...you know. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:54 | |
Um, more prominent. And therefore you have to give it up. | 0:16:54 | 0:16:58 | |
There will be a time, but what I say it is about is my copy - the words that I write. | 0:16:58 | 0:17:03 | |
Every single piece of writing in the newspaper - the question is why should bother reading this? | 0:17:03 | 0:17:07 | |
And you have to provide a service for the readers or they will move | 0:17:07 | 0:17:11 | |
on to the gardening column which I know is on the next page. | 0:17:11 | 0:17:14 | |
All right, you do a grand job and you now have nine points in this contest. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:22 | |

No passes, Jay, you have rocketed up to 24 points. | 0:19:36 | 0:19:40 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:19:40 | 0:19:43 | |
And now OJ Borg again, please. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:53 | |
I was going to ask you about something else, but, erm, explain, | 0:19:54 | 0:19:59 | |
-you're Princess Leia. -I was wearing the bikini but your producer said it's a family show, | 0:19:59 | 0:20:03 | |
so I wasn't allowed. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:05 | |
-That was the right call. -Probably was. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:07 | |
Yeah. But you don't normally go around like that | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
when you're not on telly doing the lottery? | 0:20:09 | 0:20:12 | |
No. It's a distraction. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:13 | |
I thought if this goes horribly wrong, and I shame myself, | 0:20:13 | 0:20:16 | |
at least people can laugh at the fact a man's wearing a dress and a wig. | 0:20:16 | 0:20:20 | |
They could. Oh, yes, the wig. I hadn't notice the wig - | 0:20:20 | 0:20:23 | |
I was so obsessed with the rest. | 0:20:23 | 0:20:24 | |
LAUGHTER Two Danish pastries I had with me. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:27 | |
Ha, ha! The National Lottery Show... | 0:20:27 | 0:20:30 | |
you can't buy a ticket? | 0:20:30 | 0:20:32 | |
No, they don't let us. | 0:20:32 | 0:20:34 | |
I think if we won, there'd be a temptation to go, | 0:20:34 | 0:20:36 | |
I've just won £15 million! | 0:20:36 | 0:20:38 | |
You'd probably drop your trousers and run around, going "look at me!" | 0:20:38 | 0:20:42 | |
-With you dropping your trousers, well... -Which I've done. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:44 | |
You've done it for this show. Have you always wanted to be a presenter? | 0:20:44 | 0:20:49 | |
Yeah, I wanted to be an actor in the week, according to my mum, | 0:20:49 | 0:20:52 | |
or a presenter and own an ice cream van at the weekends. | 0:20:52 | 0:20:55 | |
Apparently that was my aim for years. | 0:20:55 | 0:20:58 | |
And what's your big ambition? | 0:20:58 | 0:20:59 | |
I'd love to present a game show like Mastermind. I just need you to... | 0:20:59 | 0:21:03 | |
-LAUGHTER -Well, you know... | 0:21:03 | 0:21:05 | |
-I'd never be able to do it! -Sorry, you'll have to change. | 0:21:05 | 0:21:08 | |
I don't know, maybe... | 0:21:08 | 0:21:10 | |
We don't know what's beneath that table, do we? | 0:21:10 | 0:21:12 | |
Well, you know, later! | 0:21:12 | 0:21:15 | |
Right, you have ten points. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:18 | |
At the moment, 24 is the score to beat. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:21 | |
Let's see if you can do that with your general knowledge, starting now. | 0:21:21 | 0:21:25 | |

And...you've done a bit of travelling... | 0:23:52 | 0:23:56 | |
since you've been a travel writer. | 0:23:56 | 0:23:58 | |
The fact is, it doesn't matter what aeroplanes they produce, | 0:23:58 | 0:24:02 | |
travelling by air is a thoroughly miserable experience these days. | 0:24:02 | 0:24:06 | |
Well, if you draw a line around 1995 when the no-frills airlines started going, | 0:24:06 | 0:24:11 | |
that's when it stopped being glamorous and it started being affordable. | 0:24:11 | 0:24:16 | |
And my goodness me, Concorde, what a magnificent monumental folly. | 0:24:16 | 0:24:21 | |
Just as the Americans were saying we're going to build | 0:24:21 | 0:24:23 | |
lots of big planes like the 747 so that we can democratise air travel, | 0:24:23 | 0:24:28 | |
what were we doing with the French? We were building something to fly business people - | 0:24:28 | 0:24:32 | |
almost always business-MEN around at very high speed, completely unnecessary. | 0:24:32 | 0:24:36 | |
Although it was great to see OJ tonight cos I was reminded of what the stewardesses used to look like. | 0:24:36 | 0:24:41 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:24:41 | 0:24:44 | |
If you look at the load factor - the day they cancelled Concorde, back in April 2003, | 0:24:44 | 0:24:49 | |
