0:11:04 > 0:11:07is taken into account and the person with the fewer passes is the winner.
0:11:07 > 0:11:11So let's get on with it and ask Christian to join us again, please.
0:11:11 > 0:11:18And it's not long since you retired from sprinting.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21A very, very successful career you had.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24Lots of medals and all the rest of it but, once it's all over,
0:11:24 > 0:11:26do you say, "That's it, I don't have to train any more"?
0:11:26 > 0:11:30I'd like to but, if I'm honest, I find it very difficult.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32For about the first six, seven weeks, I stopped,
0:11:32 > 0:11:34I didn't do anything, and then, all of a sudden,
0:11:34 > 0:11:37I just felt my body just calling me back to the track
0:11:37 > 0:11:39to do some kind of training, so what I do is now I play football
0:11:39 > 0:11:42a couple of times a week with my friends and I go to the gym as well.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45- I don't run, I don't do any sprinting.- Ah, you don't?
0:11:45 > 0:11:47I'm done with sprinting and I'm a sprinter
0:11:47 > 0:11:50so I won't be doing no marathons, so no long-distance running.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53Because of course that's the way a lot of people go, isn't it?
0:11:53 > 0:11:55Yeah, you won't see me out on the streets jogging. No way.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57How incredibly sensible of you.
0:11:57 > 0:11:58LAUGHTER
0:11:58 > 0:12:04And, if you were asked by a young teenager
0:12:04 > 0:12:07why they should become an athlete, what would you say?
0:12:07 > 0:12:11I think, for me, athletics...
0:12:11 > 0:12:13I didn't on holiday before the age of 17,
0:12:13 > 0:12:15never travelled the world or anything like that.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18My very first time travelling was going on a plane at 17
0:12:18 > 0:12:21representing Great Britain to go to the World Juniors,
0:12:21 > 0:12:23and, ever since then, I was travelling on a plane
0:12:23 > 0:12:2520, 30 times a year, so it got me to see a lot of the world,
0:12:25 > 0:12:28but not only that, I met a lot of friends as well,
0:12:28 > 0:12:31so I think there's a good social aspect. But it just taught me
0:12:31 > 0:12:32a lot of values, athletics,
0:12:32 > 0:12:34and I think it's something which you find hard...
0:12:34 > 0:12:36The environment I was in, my training group,
0:12:36 > 0:12:38the people I grew up with, taught me a lot.
0:12:38 > 0:12:42If it wasn't for them, I wouldn't be the person I was today.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44Well, that's not a bad testament, is it?
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Yeah. Well done. Now, you've got seven points.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49Plenty of time to catch up. There's not much in it.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52Let's see how you do with your general knowledge. Two minutes.

0:23:34 > 0:23:36and sort of muck them around,
0:23:36 > 0:23:38because they would write brilliant jokes
0:23:38 > 0:23:39but, if we did the entire episode,
0:23:39 > 0:23:42it would be three and a half hours long. So they'd then go away
0:23:42 > 0:23:45and cut it but also put things in that they'd thought of

0:24:08 > 0:24:11and they just all love it and also how many things they follow.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13I said in one episode, I said,
0:24:13 > 0:24:15"Praise him like he's your dead brother,"
0:24:15 > 0:24:18when the Prime Minister resigned, which we just made up.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21It was a line we made up and I got a call a little while later,

0:24:23 > 0:24:24"A Tory MP has just said to me,
0:24:24 > 0:24:27'We've been told to praise him like he's our dead brother.' "
0:24:27 > 0:24:30- No!- No, it's not a training manual. It's satire.
