and if the scores are level at the end of the round | 0:11:16 | 0:11:18 | |
then the person with the fewer passes is the winner. | 0:11:18 | 0:11:20 | |
So, let us get on with it and ask Charles to join us again please. | 0:11:20 | 0:11:25 | |
And there is no way that we can get through this little chat | 0:11:25 | 0:11:29 | |
without my referring to your 40 years as Brian Aldridge. | 0:11:29 | 0:11:34 | |
No, I mean, it's just... | 0:11:34 | 0:11:35 | |
it has been wonderful being the JR of Ambridge. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:39 | |
I've never seen you in that light! | 0:11:39 | 0:11:40 | |
Yeah, that's the sort of quick phrase I get for that. | 0:11:40 | 0:11:44 | |
But you occasionally go a bit soft, don't you? | 0:11:44 | 0:11:46 | |
Yeah. I mean, you did with the little boy. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
Yes, well, I've had, I mean, to be serious as an actor, | 0:11:48 | 0:11:51 | |
it's a strange thing to do, to be in a soap opera like The Archers | 0:11:51 | 0:11:55 | |
for as long as I have, but I've been given some fantastic storylines. | 0:11:55 | 0:11:58 | |
Yeah. Well, you'd clear off if you didn't, wouldn't you? I might. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:01 | |
There's always the cheque, of course, John, you know, we do quite like it. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:05 | |
Yeah, I know. But, you know, I love it. My wife's in The Archers as well. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:08 | |
She plays Shula, so we're a double act, you see, so it couldn't be better. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:12 | |
Is that a bit tricky, having your wife there as well? | 0:12:12 | 0:12:14 | |
Well, she's the only woman in Ambridge | 0:12:14 | 0:12:16 | |
that I've not had an affair with, but... | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:12:18 | 0:12:20 | |
But apart from that, | 0:12:20 | 0:12:21 | |
I don't hold any bitterness towards the programme whatsoever. | 0:12:21 | 0:12:24 | |
Right, um, well, here's to the next 40 years, | 0:12:24 | 0:12:27 | |

Um, no, I think it's an advantage to look younger than I am, | 0:15:27 | 0:15:30 | |
because there's stiff competition. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:32 | |
If I was to look my age, there are some real great actresses out there. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:35 | |
I really did enjoy Waterloo Road, it was like being back in school | 0:15:35 | 0:15:39 | |
but without the boring education. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:42 | |
Wrong show to say this on, weren't it? On the contrary. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:46 | |

But, yeah, it was good. It was really good. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:57 | |
Right, look, you've got 10 points, Georgia. | 0:15:57 | 0:15:59 | |

He is, I mean, Connolly's been a huge influence, | 0:19:19 | 0:19:22 | |
certainly on my career, but on an awful lot of other people as well | 0:19:22 | 0:19:26 | |
cos he kind of blazed the trail. | 0:19:26 | 0:19:28 | |
He was doing stuff, thinking just off the top of his head long before... | 0:19:28 | 0:19:32 | |
That was in the day when you had a lot of joke tellers, and then you | 0:19:32 | 0:19:35 | |
had Connolly came along and was doing something different in our country. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:39 | |
That is the thing, isn't it, because Ken Dodd, brilliant, told jokes. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:44 | |
That's what he did. | 0:19:44 | 0:19:45 | |
He did, and he also sang songs. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:47 | |
And sang all that stuff, yeah. Singalong stuff for the audience. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:50 | |
I went to see Ken Dodd once and had to leave halfway through. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:53 | |

APPLAUSE | 0:22:33 | 0:22:35 | |
And finally, Mark again, please. | 0:22:42 | 0:22:45 | |
And, um, you've written a lot of crime novels in the same genre, | 0:22:47 | 0:22:53 | |
I mean, the same DI, same detective inspector. Yes. | 0:22:53 | 0:22:57 | |
Do you not run out of plotlines, | 0:22:57 | 0:22:58 | |
cos you've got the same character, the same location? | 0:22:58 | 0:23:01 | |
Do you not just kind of think, "God, they've all been done now," | 0:23:01 | 0:23:04 | |
not necessarily just by you but all the other crime writers out there? | 0:23:04 | 0:23:08 | |
Oh, yeah, by the ones that came centuries before me. | 0:23:08 | 0:23:10 | |
Something tends to always turn up. | 0:23:10 | 0:23:12 | |
It's the question you get asked most is, | 0:23:12 | 0:23:14 | |
"Where do you get your ideas from?" Sure. Sorry to be predictable. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:17 | |
No, but it's, you know, I wish there was a website, you know, | 0:23:17 | 0:23:20 | |
that you could go to. But something, some little story in a newspaper | 0:23:20 | 0:23:24 | |
or something somebody tells you. | 0:23:24 | 0:23:25 | |
They always want to tell you stuff if they know you write crime novels. | 0:23:25 | 0:23:29 | |
They go, "D'you hear what happened to old Mrs Johnson up at number 46?" | 0:23:29 | 0:23:32 | |
And you hear these terrible stories, and half of you is going, | 0:23:32 | 0:23:35 | |
"That's awful," but a part of your brain's going "I'm having that." | 0:23:35 | 0:23:39 | |
Something tends to crop up, yeah. | 0:23:39 | 0:23:41 | |
When you've got the plot, as you write your first sentence, | 0:23:41 | 0:23:43 | |
do you know how it's going to end? | 0:23:43 | 0:23:45 | |
Um, not immediately, but that first sentence is absolutely crucial. | 0:23:45 | 0:23:49 | |
You can spend as long on that first sentence | 0:23:49 | 0:23:51 | |
as you can on the middle 12 chapters. You've got to. Really? | 0:23:51 | 0:23:54 | |
Well, you've got to engage the reader very quickly. | 0:23:54 | 0:23:57 | |
I mean, it's about character. Of course. | 0:23:57 | 0:23:59 | |
It's really about, people ask you how you create suspense, and it's | 0:23:59 | 0:24:02 | |
all about, you know, cliff-hangers and timing and reveals, but at the | 0:24:02 | 0:24:06 | |
end of the day it's about giving the reader characters they care about. | 0:24:06 | 0:24:09 | |
Then you've got suspense from the first page. | 0:24:09 | 0:24:11 | |
Right, well, you've got 12 points to start this round with, | 0:24:11 | 0:24:15 | |
the final round, | 0:24:15 | 0:24:16 | |
because whether you become Celebrity Mastermind champion depends on the | 0:24:16 | 0:24:20 | |
next two minutes, and you've got to beat Old Macaulay there, | 0:24:20 | 0:24:24 | |
that's what you've got to do. Right. Let's see if you can do it. | 0:24:24 | 0:24:26 | |
