0:04:35 > 0:04:38Listen, we should say, Hugh Jackman, this year, this festive season,
0:04:38 > 0:04:41- you CAN enjoy yourself, you can pull the old ripcord...- Yeah.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43..cos you never have to be Wolverine again.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46That's it. 17 years I've been on a diet.
0:04:46 > 0:04:47You never need to look like...
0:04:47 > 0:04:51But having said that, like, won't you miss looking like that?

0:04:55 > 0:04:58Now... Now, yes!
0:04:58 > 0:05:00No. Like, people say to me,
0:05:00 > 0:05:02"How do I get ripped? How do I get like that?"
0:05:02 > 0:05:04And I'm, like, "Man, really,
0:05:04 > 0:05:07"it's too much effort for what it's worth."
0:05:07 > 0:05:12Like, it takes a lot, it's a lot of dedication, a lot of time,
0:05:12 > 0:05:15a lot of pain, a lot of steamed chicken and not much fun.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17Like, don't do it - it's not worth it.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19Yeah, it sucks, man.
0:05:19 > 0:05:23You can look seven and half out of ten and be so much happier.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26My wife is, like, "Enough!
0:05:26 > 0:05:28"Your job, as my husband, is to look like crap.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30"That is your job."
0:05:31 > 0:05:33Now, Zendaya, Zendaya, here's the thing -
0:05:33 > 0:05:35how old were you when you kind of
0:05:35 > 0:05:37started working professionally in the business?
0:05:37 > 0:05:42I think I was 13 when I got my first Disney Channel gig.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45- Yeah. And now you're in your early 20s now.- Yeah.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47- Was that your show, your first gig? - Yeah, that was my first thing.
0:05:47 > 0:05:51- KC Undercover?- It was Shake It Up, that was my first Disney show,
0:05:51 > 0:05:54- and that was, yeah, 13 years old. - Wow.- And it hasn't stopped.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56Is that younger than you, Zac? Or you were younger than that?
0:05:56 > 0:05:58I was... Yeah. You were 13 on Disney Channel?
0:05:58 > 0:06:00I was 13 on Disney Channel.
0:06:00 > 0:06:01Yeah, when I was 13, I was...
0:06:01 > 0:06:04..I think I was auditioning for my first play,
0:06:04 > 0:06:05like, local community theatre.
0:06:05 > 0:06:09My parents tricked me into auditioning for my first play.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11Told me we were going to Toys R Us.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13- You're kidding! They lied to you?- Yeah.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16And we've got a picture of you. Now, how old are you here?
0:06:19 > 0:06:22- I had to be, like, 13. - Is your hair crimped there?
0:06:22 > 0:06:23Yeah. It is, it is.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26Do you kind of put it an elastic band before you go to bed?
0:06:26 > 0:06:28How do you make your hair like that?
0:06:28 > 0:06:30I went to a performing arts school, and I'd lied about my age
0:06:30 > 0:06:34and said I was in high school when I wasn't.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38And I... There were a lot of older girls there
0:06:38 > 0:06:42that were just fun to hang out with, and they did that to me.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46- You were like their doll.- Yeah! I guess I was.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49We've got a picture of young Hugh Jackman.
0:06:49 > 0:06:53Can you see the boy who really wants to perform?
0:06:53 > 0:06:54Oh, no!
0:06:54 > 0:06:55LAUGHTER
0:06:58 > 0:07:00APPLAUSE
0:07:00 > 0:07:02That's like...
0:07:04 > 0:07:07Put me in, coach! Come on, coach, put me in!
0:07:08 > 0:07:11- I'm ready!- That is amazing!
0:07:11 > 0:07:14You are, like, totally focused on the camera.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16"Team? What team?"
0:07:16 > 0:07:19The opposition... The opposition were terrified.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21- They were intimidated.- Wow.
0:07:22 > 0:07:26The big movie you're here to tell us about is The Greatest Showman.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29It's showing everywhere now, and it really is a festive treat.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32It's a big musical extravaganza, telling the story of PT Barnum,
0:07:32 > 0:07:35who sort of originated what we think of as a circus.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38So, before we talk about it, here's a taste of what to expect.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42This is not the life I promised you.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Not even close.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46But I have everything I want.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53Girls, I think I've had an idea.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55# Look out cos here I come... #
0:07:55 > 0:07:56I'm putting together a show.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00It's a place where people can see things they've never seen before!
0:08:00 > 0:08:03- Who's that?- And what is your act? - I don't have an act.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05Everyone's got an act.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08# So tell me do you wanna go?
0:08:08 > 0:08:12# Where it's covered in all the coloured lights?
0:08:12 > 0:08:15# Where the runaways are running the night?
0:08:15 > 0:08:18# Impossible comes through It's taking over you
0:08:18 > 0:08:20# Oh, this is the greatest show!
0:08:22 > 0:08:23# This is the greatest show! #
0:08:23 > 0:08:27No-one ever made a difference by being like everyone else.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:08:32 > 0:08:36You know, Hugh Jackman, you play PT Barnum,
0:08:36 > 0:08:39and it's one of those things, where, like, the part and you,
0:08:39 > 0:08:41it's such a great fit.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43You seem to love being the showman.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46I was, seven and a half years ago, approached by...
0:08:46 > 0:08:48Yes, I do.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52Can I show you a shot of me playing soccer when I was six...
0:08:54 > 0:08:57I do kind of love it.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59I'm a ham, I'm a ham from way back,
0:08:59 > 0:09:02and somehow I feel really comfortable on a stage,
0:09:02 > 0:09:05I always have, and I was involved from the very beginning.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08So, if I'm not good in this part, I literally will never be good again,
0:09:08 > 0:09:11because it was a dream for me, for all of us.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13Well, Zac's done it four times before...
0:09:13 > 0:09:16But to be in a movie musical is a dream,
0:09:16 > 0:09:19- and it doesn't come along all that often.- Yeah.
0:09:19 > 0:09:22And so we spent seven years, we wanted to do something original,
0:09:22 > 0:09:25original music, and I think the music is phenomenal.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27And we wanted to tell the story of
0:09:27 > 0:09:30the guy who pretty much invented show business, so, this was it!
0:09:30 > 0:09:33And I love that story that you were so gung ho.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36Was it the first read-through, where you couldn't help yourself?
0:09:36 > 0:09:39It was at... It was the final read-through.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42So, we did four workshops over four years.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44So, the final read-through, there were about 80 people,
0:09:44 > 0:09:47and every single one of them with a cheque book in there.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50So it was will this or will it not happen?
0:09:50 > 0:09:51Based on this one performance.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55We had an eight-piece orchestra, we had everyone there performing,
0:09:55 > 0:10:01and the day before, I had had a skin cancer operation.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04So, I've had three or four of them, and I had to get it done.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07So I had 80 stitches in my nose and a plaster. I said,
0:10:07 > 0:10:10"Great, I'm back to rehearsal, I'm going to sing tomorrow.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13And the doctor's like, "No, no, no, you can't sing tomorrow."
0:10:13 > 0:10:15You know, because the stitches may come apart.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18And I said, "You don't understand - this is our make or break.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21"I've got to sing." And he goes, "You can't sing tomorrow."
0:10:21 > 0:10:24So I went in, made the announcement to everyone that I couldn't sing
0:10:24 > 0:10:26and someone was there to sing the songs for me.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29But when it came to From Now On, which is the last number,
0:10:29 > 0:10:32I was just so taken up by the moment, I thought,
0:10:32 > 0:10:34"I'll sing the first line."
0:10:34 > 0:10:37So, I sang the first line, I sang the second line,
0:10:37 > 0:10:39I sang the third line... and then I was singing!
0:10:39 > 0:10:41LAUGHTER
0:10:41 > 0:10:43With the soccer ball, right there!
0:10:45 > 0:10:48- And, yeah... - APPLAUSE
0:10:48 > 0:10:51So, I've finished the song.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54I mean, it was a pretty good showbiz moment.
0:10:54 > 0:10:58And I... Everyone seemed to be happy and I was like, "Great,"
0:10:58 > 0:11:01and I felt this trickle, and I went, "Uh-oh."
0:11:01 > 0:11:02And I went back to the doctor
0:11:02 > 0:11:05and had to have a bunch of those stitches redone.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08But worth it! Worth it!
0:11:08 > 0:11:10The show must go on!
0:11:10 > 0:11:13APPLAUSE DROWNS OUT SPEECH
0:11:13 > 0:11:16- So, you're PT Barnum.- Yeah. - And Zendaya...?
0:11:16 > 0:11:17I'm Anne Wheeler.
0:11:17 > 0:11:21I'm a trapeze artist who...falls in love with this guy.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23- Yeah...- Aw!
0:11:23 > 0:11:26I sort of play a made-up character. Phillip...
0:11:26 > 0:11:28LAUGHTER
0:11:28 > 0:11:31- Same.- Phillip...Carlyle?
0:11:31 > 0:11:35And...I'm, like, a writer, struggling, sort of very depressed,
0:11:35 > 0:11:39but successful and has a lot of money,
0:11:39 > 0:11:42that PT Barnum convinces me to come with him and sort of help him
0:11:42 > 0:11:45on his journey to show business.
0:11:45 > 0:11:46I want his money.
0:11:47 > 0:11:52And Zendaya...being bendy and doing the trapeze-y thing,
0:11:52 > 0:11:55was there a moment where, I think, you over-exerted yourself?
0:11:55 > 0:11:57Was it in front of Hugh?
0:11:57 > 0:11:59OK. See, here's what happened.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01Let me clear the air, literally.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04- So, here's the story. - "Literally"! Yeah.
0:12:04 > 0:12:05So, we're doing...
0:12:05 > 0:12:08I'm not going to name the person because that's embarrassing, OK?
0:12:08 > 0:12:11The point is, we were doing a stunt in front of Hugh Jackman.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13Now, I have very few scenes with Hugh Jackman,
0:12:13 > 0:12:15- and I was very nervous. - Was it me?!
0:12:15 > 0:12:17- It was not you.- No, it was not you.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20And I was on my, you know, my A game,
0:12:20 > 0:12:22cos this is Hugh Jackman and I do not want to mess up.
0:12:22 > 0:12:26So we're doing this thing where I'm basically up in the air
0:12:26 > 0:12:28and I spin down and I get caught,
0:12:28 > 0:12:29and I heard a fart.
0:12:29 > 0:12:30LAUGHTER
0:12:32 > 0:12:34- Now, wait!- We all heard the fart!
0:12:34 > 0:12:35We all heard the fart.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40Now...as a professional, I was going to carry on.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42It was not me!
0:12:42 > 0:12:45I just want to clarify, right here, right now, it was not me.
0:12:45 > 0:12:46So, they're laughing.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50The other person, OK, is laughing, and Hugh was laughing.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53I'm like, "OK, are we just going to, like, pretend that it didn't happen
0:12:53 > 0:12:55"or are we going to laugh about it?"
0:12:55 > 0:12:58And what happened was the person - who was a grown man -
0:12:58 > 0:13:01- blamed it on me!- Yeah.- Oh!
0:13:01 > 0:13:04- So Hugh thought that I farted! - HUGH MOUTHS
0:13:04 > 0:13:07But, the crazy... I would never do that!
0:13:07 > 0:13:10No-one thought that that was you, no-one.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13- No-one.- Listen, let me tell you something...- Yeah.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15..if I ever farted in front of you,
0:13:15 > 0:13:17it would definitely be silent but deadly.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20I would never...never audibly, never audibly.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22You know what I'm saying? I'm a lady.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24Memo to self. Memo to self.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26And tell me this, Zac, in terms of dancing and showmen,
0:13:26 > 0:13:29I know that Michael Jackson was a real hero of yours.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31- And...- Yeah...
0:13:31 > 0:13:35Now, you... Did you meet him? Or you didn't meet him?
0:13:35 > 0:13:38- There was...- No, no, I never... I talked to him on the phone.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40Yeah, so how did that happen?
0:13:40 > 0:13:42Uh, I... How did it happen?
0:13:42 > 0:13:46I was... I was in Paris, and I was with Kenny Ortega.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49We were promoting High School Musical 3, I want to say it was...
0:13:49 > 0:13:52I was probably 20... Maybe 20, 21 at the time,
0:13:52 > 0:13:57and we were at dinner, and somehow, I was at the head of the table
0:13:57 > 0:13:59and Kenny was on the other side of the table,
0:13:59 > 0:14:01our director, Kenny Ortega.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04And his phone rang, and I remember I got this look, like...
0:14:07 > 0:14:08"You want this phone call."
0:14:08 > 0:14:11And I was like, "OK," so I came over and was like, "What's going on?"
0:14:11 > 0:14:13- He goes... - WHISPERS:- "It's Michael Jackson."
0:14:13 > 0:14:16I'm like, "What?!" He hands me the phone, and I was like...
0:14:16 > 0:14:18"Uh...hello?"
0:14:18 > 0:14:21And I heard, "Hi, who's this?"
0:14:21 > 0:14:26And I was like... "Um, this is Zac Efron.
0:14:26 > 0:14:29"I'm a massive fan and I'm an actor
0:14:29 > 0:14:33"and you're, like, my hero," and I didn't know what to say.
0:14:33 > 0:14:39I was like, kind of... I was just at a loss for words and rambling on.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41And then he said, "That's really nice.
0:14:41 > 0:14:43"Can you hand the phone back to Kenny?"
0:14:43 > 0:14:45LAUGHTER
0:14:45 > 0:14:48So I did. And I was freaking out.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50Like, I just talked to Michael Jackson - he's my hero.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52I was tripping.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55And I sat back down, just a little dizzy, and then all of a sudden,
0:14:55 > 0:14:58the phone rang again, and Kenny answered,
0:14:58 > 0:15:01and I saw him kind of confused across the table.
0:15:01 > 0:15:04And he, like, looked at me again. He's like,
0:15:04 > 0:15:06"You want to get this phone."
0:15:06 > 0:15:09I was like, "OK." And he hands the phone to me and goes,
0:15:09 > 0:15:11"It's Michael Jackson again."
0:15:11 > 0:15:13And I was like, "What? OK."
0:15:13 > 0:15:16And I picked up the phone and I was like, "Hello?"
0:15:16 > 0:15:18He goes, "Oh, this is Zac, from High School Musical?"
0:15:18 > 0:15:20And I was like, "Uh...yeah."
0:15:20 > 0:15:24And he was like, "Oh, I love what you do, I'm a huge fan,
0:15:24 > 0:15:26"I love what you do."
0:15:26 > 0:15:30And I lost it. I just lost it.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33I lost my balance, I think I fell over, into the wall.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35I was like, do you know who I am?
0:15:35 > 0:15:38And I just started crying.
0:15:38 > 0:15:39I was a mess.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42Literally, I was making a fool out of myself.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45I, like, slid down to the floor, pathetically,
0:15:45 > 0:15:46and professed how much I loved him.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49Said, like, "You're my hero, you're the reason I do what I do,
0:15:49 > 0:15:52"thank you so much, Michael, for everything.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54"Thanks for showing me how to dance,
0:15:54 > 0:15:58"how to believe in myself, how to... how to..."
0:15:58 > 0:16:01I don't know, how to shine, you know?
0:16:01 > 0:16:03And...that made him cry.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07We were both crying to each other on the phone.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10And he ended the whole phone call conversation with
0:16:10 > 0:16:12something along the lines of,
0:16:12 > 0:16:15"Hey, Zac," and I stopped crying for a second,
0:16:15 > 0:16:18"Isn't it awesome?" I was like, "What?"
0:16:18 > 0:16:21And he goes, "Dreams really do come true, don't they?"
0:16:21 > 0:16:27And I was like... "Michael, you can't say things like that!
0:16:28 > 0:16:30"You're killing me, man! You're killing me!"
0:16:30 > 0:16:34- What a sweet story. - Thank you, Michael. Thank you.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42Now, in terms of circus, and the world of circus,
0:16:42 > 0:16:45oddly, Hugh Jackman, this isn't your first foray.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47You did some fine clown work.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50- I did.- Earlier in your life. - I was a clown at kids' parties.
0:16:50 > 0:16:55- I think we've got a picture of Coco. - There it is!- This is Coco.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59It's a rented costume.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02Coco and Bozo. We really put zero thought into this.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05But I could juggle at the time.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07And I was very good with the three-year-olds'
0:17:07 > 0:17:09and four-year-olds' party.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11- Cos you really just dress up and you're done.- Yeah, yeah.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13And I remember once getting a little cocky
0:17:13 > 0:17:16and I did an eight-year-old's birthday party.
0:17:16 > 0:17:20All you're hired to do is to keep the kids occupied for an hour.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22We've got some mums and dads here,
0:17:22 > 0:17:24so that mums and dads can drink, right? Am I right?
0:17:24 > 0:17:29About five minutes into my schtick, this little eight-year-old kid,
0:17:29 > 0:17:31who I hate to this day,
0:17:31 > 0:17:34stands up, "Mum, Dad,
0:17:34 > 0:17:36"this clown is crap!"
0:17:38 > 0:17:41Shut up! Shut up, kid!
0:17:41 > 0:17:44And I pull out the thing... I would juggle eggs,
0:17:44 > 0:17:47I could juggle eggs and occasionally I would crack one.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49So I just said, "Here, kids, eggs,"
0:17:49 > 0:17:52They were throwing eggs at me and I literally walked out,
0:17:52 > 0:17:56took off the wig, and I never went back again, that was it.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00- No more Coco.- Obviously, in things like The Prestige,
0:18:00 > 0:18:02- you had to learn special skills. - Right.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05- You can properly juggle, can't you? - I used to be able to juggle.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Because tonight, because it's The Greatest Showman,
0:18:08 > 0:18:11we were thinking about people's skills, special skills, so...
0:18:11 > 0:18:15- Can you juggle those things?- Right!
0:18:17 > 0:18:20There's a selection of fruit. If you want to juggle a selection of fruit.
0:18:20 > 0:18:22- Shall we go oranges? - Go oranges.
0:18:22 > 0:18:23All right, we'll go oranges.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25Oh, you really can!
0:18:25 > 0:18:27AUDIENCE CHEER AND APPLAUD
0:18:29 > 0:18:32Oh, I caught one! I caught one!
0:18:34 > 0:18:35Same time.
0:18:35 > 0:18:36Oh!
0:18:36 > 0:18:38CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:18:44 > 0:18:45- Beautiful!- Health and safety!
0:18:47 > 0:18:51I turn now... I turn now to Zendaya.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54Now, you've got a physical thing you can do?
0:18:54 > 0:18:56- Oh, yeah.- Not the farting?- Oh, no.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58It wasn't me!
0:19:01 > 0:19:03- Tell me this...- It was not me!
0:19:03 > 0:19:08- But it was not me.- I'm really excited to find out.- Tell me this,
0:19:08 > 0:19:12Zendaya, in terms of the trapeze skills, do you still have them?
0:19:12 > 0:19:15If, for instance, if there was a trapeze,
0:19:15 > 0:19:20could you just slip your shoes off and get on a thing and just go nuts?
0:19:20 > 0:19:23You know... I didn't really wear my trapeze outfit today.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25The heels are a little difficult.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Oh, OK!
0:19:27 > 0:19:30- Is that a no?- I mean... - Oh, is it a yes?
0:19:30 > 0:19:32Maybe... Maybe...
0:19:32 > 0:19:34CHEERING
0:19:38 > 0:19:41Listen, guys, I hate to let people down,
0:19:41 > 0:19:43but I don't have my stunt team here.
0:19:43 > 0:19:46- And I do not want to hurt myself. - We got you.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48You guys are going to...?
0:19:48 > 0:19:49- AUDIENCE:- Oh...
0:19:51 > 0:19:53Well, thank you very much.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56The only thing I can do is wiggle my ears.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58See, already we're thrilled!
0:19:58 > 0:20:01You're really doing it! Oh, she's doing it!
0:20:04 > 0:20:06That is impressive. Well done.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08APPLAUSE
0:20:08 > 0:20:10- That was good.- Thank you!
0:20:12 > 0:20:15Now, Zac, you've been very generous with your skills on the show,
0:20:15 > 0:20:17we've seen you controlling the ball
0:20:17 > 0:20:20and then you did the pole work the last time.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24- That was impressive.- We haven't turned that photograph.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26- He did that.- That's for real?- Yeah.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28My pole dance.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31Tonight, you bring us something very special.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34So, what special skill, what party trick have you brought for us?
0:20:34 > 0:20:37It's nothing at all.
0:20:37 > 0:20:41I couldn't do it. In fairness, I don't know what it is, but I...
0:20:43 > 0:20:47If it wasn't built up now, after that!
0:20:47 > 0:20:50My mom taught me how to blow like bubbles of spit.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53Now we're talking!
0:20:53 > 0:20:58So, now, because I'm not sure, so I don't know how well this will go.
0:20:58 > 0:21:02If it was to go as well as possible, what should we expect to see?
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Things are happening.
0:21:04 > 0:21:09- I can see it!- Your spit has to be just the right consistency.
0:21:09 > 0:21:13My mom taught me how to do this. She's going to be so embarrassed.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21Here we go, here we go, here we go. This is it. This is it.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27I saw it, I saw it!
0:21:27 > 0:21:30- I can form one. Last try?- Yeah.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38Honestly, I can't do it. Your spit has to be just right.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40I don't know what you have to eat.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43Mom... I wish my mom was around.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45- It's OK, man.- Well, frickin' A!
0:21:50 > 0:21:53OK, we've been let down by spitball.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57Will you have one more go with your spitball? One more go.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00Oh, I saw that one!
0:22:00 > 0:22:02Oh... Oh...
0:22:02 > 0:22:03Oh, you're on a roll.
0:22:07 > 0:22:12- Oh! Yay!- We've got a spitball!
0:22:13 > 0:22:17- OK, you did it, you did it, Zac Efron!- Yes!
0:22:17 > 0:22:21So, let's just see if our audience tonight have any talents.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24We asked what skills they have to offer us tonight.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27I've got some of their answers here.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31Where's Lucy?
0:22:31 > 0:22:34Where's Lucy? Now, Lucy, I don't understand your thing.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37So, you can do Eggy Peggy language?
0:22:37 > 0:22:42- Yeah.- OK, so how do we demonstrate this?
0:22:42 > 0:22:46- So I can translate anything into Eggy Peggy.- Just a phrase?
0:22:46 > 0:22:49- Any phrase. In any language. - Hugh Jackman, do you have a phrase
0:22:49 > 0:22:52you would like to hear in Eggy Peggy? I know no more than you.
0:22:53 > 0:22:57Zendaya never farted on the set of The Greatest Showman.
0:22:57 > 0:23:04SHE TRANSLATES TO EGGY PEGGY
0:23:04 > 0:23:06CHEERING
0:23:06 > 0:23:09I don't know whether that was good or not.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11It's good.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13Where's Ash? Where's Ash?
0:23:13 > 0:23:14Ash, what can you do?
0:23:14 > 0:23:17- Spin on my head. - You're the spin-on-the-head guy.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20OK, that's very good. Hang on. We might see you later.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23We won't see it right now. That's Ash, who can spin on his head.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25Where is Tora?
0:23:25 > 0:23:27Now, Tora does an impression.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29You just do the one, right?
0:23:29 > 0:23:31- No.- Yes. Ssh!
0:23:31 > 0:23:33- Is there more?- Yes.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35I love gabby friend there.
0:23:35 > 0:23:36How many...?
0:23:36 > 0:23:38What else can Tora do?
0:23:38 > 0:23:40- FRIEND:- Tell them.- Well...
0:23:40 > 0:23:42I used to be able to do the Queen.
0:23:42 > 0:23:46- What happened?- Well, she got older, and I can't do her any more.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50So, what are you going to give us?
0:23:50 > 0:23:52I'm going to give Sybil Fawlty.
0:23:52 > 0:23:55- Oh, Fawlty Towers, OK.- I love that!
0:23:55 > 0:23:58So, Tora is Sybil Fawlty from Fawlty Towers.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01- AS SYBIL:- Polly, would you get Manuel for me?
0:24:01 > 0:24:03That was very good!
0:24:08 > 0:24:11Now, Mike, where's Mike?
0:24:11 > 0:24:14Now, Mike might be a good companion trick for your moving ears.
0:24:14 > 0:24:21- Oh, OK.- Mike can, it says here, "uniquely fold his tongue".
0:24:21 > 0:24:23- Oh!- OK.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25Nice and close to Mike's mouth.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27OK. And here we go.
0:24:27 > 0:24:31Mike folding his... Oh, he's having some problems.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33Oh, no, are they your own teeth?
0:24:33 > 0:24:34They are.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41Don't get sick, Mike!
0:24:43 > 0:24:46- Sorry.- Not yet.- Not yet.- OK.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49No, in fairness, professionals are having trouble.
0:24:51 > 0:24:55- Don't attempt any trick with your tongue on this show.- No.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57I do a mean Wolverine.
0:24:59 > 0:25:00Let's see your mean Wolverine then!
0:25:04 > 0:25:08That's good. Who knew that was coming?
0:25:08 > 0:25:13Ah, well done, all the talented people in our audience, very good.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17- Why didn't I think of that?- I know!
0:25:20 > 0:25:25- No, he had that ends of his fingers going, man.- He was good.
0:25:25 > 0:25:29Hey, let's meet my next guest. We first met this Bafta-winning actress
0:25:29 > 0:25:32on Coronation Street, then as one half of Scott & Bailey
0:25:32 > 0:25:35but she truly gripped the nation in the monster hit Doctor Foster.
0:25:35 > 0:25:37Please welcome Suranne Jones!
0:25:40 > 0:25:44Hey. Hello, darling, lovely to see you.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56Have a seat. More kissing, more kissing.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58It's so showbiz.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00- Happy New Year.- Happy New Year.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02Or eve, or something, whatever it is.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05Mike's making me a bit nervous with the tongue thing.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10- I'm not sure what that was. - Not sure if it's special.- What?
0:26:10 > 0:26:12Is that special, folding your tongue back?
0:26:12 > 0:26:14He looked a bit like a dog that had had peanut butter.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21- Um...- Could have led with the Wolverine, Mike.
0:26:21 > 0:26:25- Lead with that, that's the one. - So, Suranne, did you meet backstage?
0:26:25 > 0:26:27- No, you weren't back here. - No, no.- No.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29We tried but she wouldn't see anyone.
0:26:29 > 0:26:31- I don't know. - No, I was too nervous.
0:26:31 > 0:26:32I get very nervous before I come on
0:26:32 > 0:26:34- so I was kind of hiding somewhere. - Do you?
0:26:34 > 0:26:37- We have met before.- I know, we met in Broadway at the River.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39- Yeah.- Oh, good memory.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42Yeah. With my husband as well.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44Is this mean of me?
0:26:45 > 0:26:48Yes, cos it was the dressing room and my friend Kush.
0:26:48 > 0:26:51This might be mean of me, but... cos people, you know,
0:26:51 > 0:26:54we give interviews, people ask us stupid questions, we answer them,
0:26:54 > 0:26:57da-da-da, so, in 2013
0:26:57 > 0:26:59do you remember you were asked in a questionnaire
0:26:59 > 0:27:01what your greatest weakness was?
0:27:05 > 0:27:08If I wasn't sat next to Hugh Jackman...
0:27:09 > 0:27:12- ..I would answer you, but you're going to say it anyway.- I am, yes.
0:27:12 > 0:27:14You said coffee and Hugh Jackman.
0:27:18 > 0:27:20In that order?
0:27:25 > 0:27:26The things you say.
0:27:26 > 0:27:29Are you also kind of like, "What are the chances?"
0:27:29 > 0:27:35- Now look!- But then I went on to marry someone who also loves you,
0:27:35 > 0:27:38and, when we met, he was winding me up before we met,
0:27:38 > 0:27:41and he was getting knives
0:27:41 > 0:27:45and putting them on his hands and saying, "When I meet Hugh,
0:27:45 > 0:27:48"I am going to do this," cos he loves Wolverine.
0:27:48 > 0:27:51And we had a massive argument cos I said why would you do that,
0:27:51 > 0:27:55why can't you say you were great in the play, nice to meet you?
0:27:55 > 0:27:58Why would you do...? Why would you get knives out?
0:27:59 > 0:28:00And embarrass me?
0:28:00 > 0:28:04And then we met, and my husband didn't say boo to a goose,
0:28:04 > 0:28:07stood in a corner and we went, "Hi, how are you?"
0:28:08 > 0:28:12And then was so disappointed that you weren't like Wolverine, so...
0:28:12 > 0:28:15- Oh, really.- Yeah.- Oh. I'm going to send Mike over.
0:28:15 > 0:28:19- Yes, yes.- Mike's better.- Sorry, Laurence.- Now here's a thing.
0:28:19 > 0:28:22I think it's extraordinary because you walk out
0:28:22 > 0:28:24to that mighty roar and you, as an actress,
0:28:24 > 0:28:26you were in the most popular show in Britain,
0:28:26 > 0:28:28you were in Coronation Street, then Scott & Bailey,
0:28:28 > 0:28:31everyone loved that, but Doctor Foster, you must have thought,
0:28:31 > 0:28:34I'm really famous, and then Doctor Foster came along.
0:28:34 > 0:28:35I know, it's just gone mental.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38- Yeah.- I've not done a show where people have just been behind it.
0:28:38 > 0:28:41And also cos you couldn't binge watch it,
0:28:41 > 0:28:45you had to watch it once a week, it had that kind of watercooler cooler effect.
0:28:45 > 0:28:48And, you know, for a character that was quite mental at times,
0:28:48 > 0:28:52- especially in season two...- Yes. - ..yeah, people loved it.
0:28:52 > 0:28:55But also it was quite graphic.
0:28:55 > 0:29:00So, that must have been odd for you, then, just Suranne Jones,
0:29:00 > 0:29:03- doing your shopping.- I remember, well, I've told you this before.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06But I was in the woods with my two-year-old,
0:29:06 > 0:29:10nearly two-year-old and I'd done this big hate sex scene
0:29:10 > 0:29:15where there was lots of things going on in the kitchen.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17- And, um...- I love that.
0:29:17 > 0:29:20- The old hate sex scene.- Yeah.
0:29:20 > 0:29:22I hope they wiped down the surfaces after that
0:29:22 > 0:29:25because it needed a good Dettoling.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29And, you know, you do these scenes and you're just kind of, like...
0:29:29 > 0:29:32and I'm with my son and my son just wants to
0:29:32 > 0:29:35pick up sticks or sing songs with me in the woods,
0:29:35 > 0:29:37and then people come past, saying,
0:29:37 > 0:29:41"Ooh! Saw you last night in that scene, that was quite some..."
0:29:41 > 0:29:44And I'm like, "Yeah, like, not now."
0:29:44 > 0:29:46Not, not appropriate.
0:29:46 > 0:29:50I'm singing, "Ooh, this little piggy went to market."
0:29:52 > 0:29:54Yeah, literally.
0:29:59 > 0:30:01Talking to you, you are not resting,
0:30:01 > 0:30:04you are not resting cos you're straight back to work presumably
0:30:04 > 0:30:07in the New Year in rehearsals, a new play, it's called Frozen.
0:30:07 > 0:30:09Not the Disney version, yes.
0:30:09 > 0:30:13No. I think that poster's good enough to avoid confusion.
0:30:13 > 0:30:17- Yeah, I'm not in a fancy dress outfit, yeah.- Where's Olaf?
0:30:20 > 0:30:22It starts on 21st February,
0:30:22 > 0:30:25it's at the Theatre Royal Haymarket in London and it's, not just you,
0:30:25 > 0:30:30it's a really starry cast. It's Jason Watkins and Nina Sosanya.
0:30:30 > 0:30:34- Sosanya, yes. - Oddly, they're both in W1A together.
0:30:34 > 0:30:37I know, which is a comedy, and again ours isn't really a comedy.
0:30:37 > 0:30:39No, this sounds quite...
0:30:39 > 0:30:42- Yeah.- Yeah, it's a psychological thriller, a three-hander,
0:30:42 > 0:30:46and it's about a woman who loses her child, her child goes missing.
0:30:46 > 0:30:50And then she gets the opportunity to meet the person
0:30:50 > 0:30:53that was responsible for that.
0:30:53 > 0:30:58And I read somewhere where how you feel, because you're a newish mom,
0:30:58 > 0:31:01that that has kind of affected your brain when you read
0:31:01 > 0:31:05a script like this, kind of a different switch has been flicked.
0:31:05 > 0:31:08Do you know, I don't know how you guys feel,
0:31:08 > 0:31:11but when I became a mum or I was pregnant,
0:31:11 > 0:31:14I was attracted by, like, missing children.
0:31:14 > 0:31:17Because I've done three, like Doctor Foster,
0:31:17 > 0:31:20and then I'm in a Sky Atlantic thing called Save Me
0:31:20 > 0:31:23and that's about a missing child and Frozen is about missing...
0:31:23 > 0:31:25So I must have been in a headspace
0:31:25 > 0:31:27where it was like the total opposite to what...
0:31:27 > 0:31:29I was so happy in my marriage
0:31:29 > 0:31:33and having a new baby that I was drawn to these really dark stories.
0:31:33 > 0:31:38I mean, it does stop after this one! I'm not... But it's weird...
0:31:38 > 0:31:40I wonder what happens in this Suranne Jones project.
0:31:40 > 0:31:42Another child goes missing, yeah.
0:31:42 > 0:31:44She's got a kid. Not for long.
0:31:49 > 0:31:52But now Coronation Street. How long were you in Coronation Street?
0:31:52 > 0:31:55- Four years.- Four years. Presumably, do you have any clue...
0:31:55 > 0:31:58Oh, Hugh Jackman knows what it is. Zendaya, Zac? No.
0:31:58 > 0:32:00I've heard of it, yes, yeah.
0:32:00 > 0:32:02Because you were, you know,
0:32:02 > 0:32:06that's a huge deal to get a gig in Coronation Street.
0:32:06 > 0:32:09Oh, God. I mean, you know, I'm northern working-class,
0:32:09 > 0:32:12all my family just loved Coronation Street.
0:32:12 > 0:32:16And I used to audition all the time, like, almost every week,
0:32:16 > 0:32:18because this theatre school that I went to,
0:32:18 > 0:32:20they'd just get all the kids in to audition all the time.
0:32:20 > 0:32:22And they were trying to find a part for me.
0:32:22 > 0:32:26And, yeah, my nana Bertha and my grandad Bob were like,
0:32:26 > 0:32:30you know, Spielberg, Coronation Street. "Ooh, Coronation Street!"
0:32:30 > 0:32:34There's no comparison. And then of course I got it.
0:32:34 > 0:32:36- And...- It's been all downhill since then!
0:32:36 > 0:32:39- Would you not go back?- Yes, exactly.
0:32:39 > 0:32:42Because Karen McDonald, she loved a good ruck, Karen McDonald.
0:32:42 > 0:32:44- She did. Yes.- Lots of it. A lot of them with her husband Steve.
0:32:44 > 0:32:46Look at that, look at that vicious face there.
0:32:46 > 0:32:50- Oh, God.- Er, then some of them in the pub, I'm guessing
0:32:50 > 0:32:52- this is St Patrick's Day.- Oh, God!
0:32:52 > 0:32:56That's a good fight. Now, sadly, no-one told her she was in shot.
0:32:59 > 0:33:02She's just planning her menu for dinner.
0:33:02 > 0:33:06She's like, "I've got carrots in, I could do something with them..."
0:33:07 > 0:33:11And then, this, of course was the big final fight.
0:33:11 > 0:33:14Was it that you weren't supposed to be doing this, were you?
0:33:14 > 0:33:16No, my... Eunice...
0:33:16 > 0:33:19These soaps are serious business.
0:33:19 > 0:33:20No kidding around, yeah.
0:33:20 > 0:33:24My stunt double, Eunice, she was meant to be doing that,
0:33:24 > 0:33:27and then a car ran over her ankle.
0:33:28 > 0:33:31So she got sent off, and the ambulance turned up
0:33:31 > 0:33:32and we were all in the green room
0:33:32 > 0:33:36and of course they should have sent us all home, but being budget
0:33:36 > 0:33:38and all that, they said, "Oh, Eunice has gone to hospital,
0:33:38 > 0:33:42"and she can't do the stunt now so...can you do it?"
0:33:43 > 0:33:46- And of course I'm 22.- You're nearly finished.- You're nearly finished.
0:33:46 > 0:33:48I'm 22 and I think, I'm going to get the sack if I don't.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51So I went, "Yeah, what have I got to do?" And they said,
0:33:51 > 0:33:53"We're just going to hang you over the building.
0:33:53 > 0:33:56"And Tracy's going to smash you with a log."
0:33:59 > 0:34:03- And I said, "OK." - Is this a hate sex scene?
0:34:03 > 0:34:05No, no, this is different.
0:34:05 > 0:34:09- I love that Tracy just found a log. - I know.
0:34:09 > 0:34:13- In the knicker factory.- Oh, this log that's in the knicker factory.
0:34:13 > 0:34:15It's very Game Of Thrones.
0:34:17 > 0:34:20Now, tonight we're collecting people's special skills.
0:34:20 > 0:34:21We've seen some marvellous skills.
0:34:21 > 0:34:24- Yes.- So, what might you delight...
0:34:24 > 0:34:27If we were at a party, what would you delight people with?
0:34:27 > 0:34:33I... I... I haven't done it for a long time, but I used to, um,
0:34:33 > 0:34:36- do a velociraptor impression.- Oh!
0:34:38 > 0:34:40She is pissing on you all.
0:34:41 > 0:34:44- We haven't seen it yet.- That level. - We haven't seen it yet...
0:34:44 > 0:34:47- Exactly.- But, OK, do you need anything for this?
0:34:47 > 0:34:50- Um, maybe these shoes off. - OK. Do you need help with that?
0:34:50 > 0:34:53No, no, I can get them off.
0:34:53 > 0:34:54You know the famous scene
0:34:54 > 0:34:57where the velociraptor is looking for the children,
0:34:57 > 0:34:59in the kitchens.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01Oh, yes, I do know, yes.
0:35:01 > 0:35:03I kind of re-enact that.
0:35:03 > 0:35:06Be kind to me, imagine there's some children that I'm running after
0:35:06 > 0:35:08and they're all scared. Usually I'm doing that at a party
0:35:08 > 0:35:11- and there's lots of kids.- OK. Do you need to jump on a table or anything?
0:35:11 > 0:35:13No, I just need a bit of space, this is good.
0:35:13 > 0:35:17OK. She's an actress, just explore the space.
0:35:17 > 0:35:18Explore the space.
0:35:18 > 0:35:20- Yes, good.- Oh, she's happy, she's happy.
0:35:20 > 0:35:22Shall I get out of the way?
0:35:22 > 0:35:24- I'm OK here?- No, cos you can be a part of this.- OK, OK.
0:35:24 > 0:35:26We've got a little bit of music,
0:35:26 > 0:35:28- a little bit of music. - Goodbye, career!
0:35:28 > 0:35:30LAUGHTER
0:35:45 > 0:35:47Very good!
0:35:49 > 0:35:51Excellent.
0:35:52 > 0:35:56Right. Time for our final New Year guest.
0:35:56 > 0:36:00This man has been a Hollywood star for over 30 years and now gives
0:36:00 > 0:36:03a career-defining performance as the great Winston Churchill
0:36:03 > 0:36:05in Darkest Hour. I smell Oscars.
0:36:05 > 0:36:08Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Gary Oldman!
0:36:10 > 0:36:12Oh! So good to see you.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15- Hello, Sir.- How are you? Are you well?
0:36:25 > 0:36:28Come in, sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down. Well done.
0:36:28 > 0:36:31Double congratulations to Gary Oldman.
0:36:31 > 0:36:33Not only are you getting amazing reviews
0:36:33 > 0:36:35but you've also just got married.
0:36:35 > 0:36:37- I did get married.- Yes!
0:36:37 > 0:36:39CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:36:41 > 0:36:44I got married in August.
0:36:44 > 0:36:49And I proposed to my wife Gisele
0:36:49 > 0:36:53on the set of Darkest Hour
0:36:53 > 0:36:57so I was...I was dressed as Winston Churchill when I did it.
0:36:59 > 0:37:01- HUGH:- That's hot.
0:37:02 > 0:37:05- Well, if she said yes to that... - She said yes.
0:37:05 > 0:37:09And it was, um, we had talked about it, but I don't know,
0:37:09 > 0:37:13the urge took me, and we went into the Map Room
0:37:13 > 0:37:16in the, you know, the War Rooms,
0:37:16 > 0:37:17we went into the Map Room.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19And I said, "Will you marry me?" and she said, "Yes."
0:37:19 > 0:37:22And then someone said, "Gary, we need you on the set."
0:37:22 > 0:37:24LAUGHTER
0:37:24 > 0:37:26APPLAUSE
0:37:26 > 0:37:29Now, we were talking about musicals obviously tonight,
0:37:29 > 0:37:32with The Greatest Showman. And I did not realise, Gary Oldman,
0:37:32 > 0:37:34that one of your first jobs,
0:37:34 > 0:37:36you were in Cabaret, the musical Cabaret.
0:37:36 > 0:37:38Yeah. Yeah.
0:37:38 > 0:37:41But it wasn't plain sailing.
0:37:41 > 0:37:45No. Well, you all know this.
0:37:45 > 0:37:48The outgoing song I had,
0:37:48 > 0:37:51a cappella, five-part harmony,
0:37:51 > 0:37:55and the outgoing song's last note
0:37:55 > 0:37:57is my starting note
0:37:57 > 0:38:00and I would take it from the piano,
0:38:00 > 0:38:02and I would be backstage,
0:38:02 > 0:38:05hear the note, come out, set up,
0:38:05 > 0:38:08the lights would come up and I would start singing.
0:38:08 > 0:38:14And these five Boy Scouts were all around the campfire thing.
0:38:14 > 0:38:17And, um... And I, on one night,
0:38:17 > 0:38:20only one night, thank heavens,
0:38:20 > 0:38:23but instead of taking the note from the piano,
0:38:23 > 0:38:27the trumpet in the band,
0:38:27 > 0:38:29the trumpet drowned it out.
0:38:29 > 0:38:34So, I took the note from the trumpet, which is the same note,
0:38:34 > 0:38:37but it's impure, it's not the same as the piano.
0:38:37 > 0:38:40And I get the note in my head,
0:38:40 > 0:38:42come out and I start singing
0:38:42 > 0:38:46- and I realised I've started an octave too high.- Oh, no...!
0:38:47 > 0:38:51And... And then it goes up a tone.
0:38:52 > 0:38:54You know the song I'm talking about, do you? Yeah.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57# The sun on the meadow... #
0:38:57 > 0:39:00Back in the day, I could.
0:39:00 > 0:39:01I was only 20.
0:39:01 > 0:39:04So, I started singing
0:39:04 > 0:39:05and suddenly realised,
0:39:05 > 0:39:08"Oh, my God,
0:39:08 > 0:39:10"I'm so... I'm so off!"
0:39:10 > 0:39:14And then it went up another tone,
0:39:14 > 0:39:19there's these five guys who had, by then, stopped harmonising.
0:39:21 > 0:39:22And were just going...
0:39:22 > 0:39:24CHUCKLING
0:39:24 > 0:39:29That thing of I'm there singing with veins popping out of my neck,
0:39:29 > 0:39:31and these five...
0:39:31 > 0:39:35Just five backs to the audience, just doing this...
0:39:35 > 0:39:37But you've... I mean, you've...
0:39:37 > 0:39:40I remember, I was in an amateur production of West Side Story,
0:39:40 > 0:39:43in the eastern suburbs of Sydney,
0:39:43 > 0:39:45and I had the role of Tony.
0:39:45 > 0:39:47And it's a very high tenor role,
0:39:47 > 0:39:48and I'm a baritone, high baritone.
0:39:48 > 0:39:50At the time, I could not sing those notes.
0:39:50 > 0:39:52And I said, "Guys I can't sing the notes." "You'll be fine."
0:39:52 > 0:39:55I said, "But I can't sing it." "You'll be fine."
0:39:55 > 0:39:56And every night, I would go out there...
0:39:56 > 0:39:59Every night! There were three performances! Every night...
0:39:59 > 0:40:02LAUGHTER
0:40:02 > 0:40:03..I went out there,
0:40:03 > 0:40:06# Maria, Maria, Mari... #
0:40:07 > 0:40:09LAUGHTER
0:40:09 > 0:40:11And I would go...
0:40:11 > 0:40:14Pointing to the sound guy in the wings,
0:40:14 > 0:40:16"You've let me down, the mic."
0:40:16 > 0:40:19Every night, the sound guy in the wings is like...
0:40:19 > 0:40:22LAUGHTER
0:40:22 > 0:40:23I couldn't take it.
0:40:23 > 0:40:26APPLAUSE
0:40:26 > 0:40:27The movie, Darkest Hour.
0:40:27 > 0:40:30Fantastic reviews, Joe Wright directed.
0:40:30 > 0:40:33It opens here on the 12th January
0:40:33 > 0:40:36and it's a very specific time in the war for Winston Churchill.
0:40:36 > 0:40:40Yeah. Yeah. It's really five or six weeks, 1940.
0:40:40 > 0:40:46Neville Chamberlain has resigned from the premiership.
0:40:46 > 0:40:49Churchill steps in.
0:40:49 > 0:40:54Um, there are troops in Dunkirk
0:40:54 > 0:40:57which, you know, there's fear that we'll lose.
0:40:57 > 0:41:00300... In fact, 300,000 soldiers in Dunkirk.
0:41:00 > 0:41:05And also, on the table,
0:41:05 > 0:41:08is a peace deal with Hitler.
0:41:08 > 0:41:13And it deals with not only the crisis in Dunkirk,
0:41:13 > 0:41:19but whether we will capitulate and, um...
0:41:19 > 0:41:23basically, surrender, and do a deal with Hitler.
0:41:23 > 0:41:28So, it's a very specific, a very defining moment...
0:41:28 > 0:41:30- A sort of pivotal moment, yeah. - ..in our history,
0:41:30 > 0:41:32and also in Churchill's career.
0:41:32 > 0:41:35We'll talk about it some more, but let's show people
0:41:35 > 0:41:39- just a bit of your transformation into Winston Churchill.- Yes.
0:41:39 > 0:41:42Nothing inglorious in trying to shorten a war
0:41:42 > 0:41:44- that we are clearly losing. - "Losing"?
0:41:44 > 0:41:46- Europe is still... - HE BANGS ON DESK
0:41:46 > 0:41:48Europe is lost!
0:41:54 > 0:41:58And before our forces are wiped out completely,
0:41:58 > 0:42:00now's the time to negotiate
0:42:00 > 0:42:03in order to obtain the best conditions possible.
0:42:05 > 0:42:07Hitler will not insist on outrageous terms.
0:42:07 > 0:42:09He will know his own weaknesses.
0:42:09 > 0:42:12- He will be reasonable. - When will the lesson be learned?
0:42:12 > 0:42:15When will the lesson be learned?!
0:42:16 > 0:42:18How many more dictators
0:42:18 > 0:42:22must be wooed, appeased!

0:42:32 > 0:42:34APPLAUSE
0:42:37 > 0:42:41It is amazing. It is amazing.
0:42:41 > 0:42:43And it's...
0:42:43 > 0:42:46It's one of the things, cos often, in things like this,
0:42:46 > 0:42:48the make-up, the wigs, can get in the way.
0:42:48 > 0:42:50- Yeah.- And it's beautiful.
0:42:50 > 0:42:52Well, I think it's...
0:42:52 > 0:42:55I would say it's a benchmark in prosthetic make-up.
0:42:55 > 0:42:57And would it take hours or...?
0:42:57 > 0:42:59The whole thing took four hours.
0:42:59 > 0:43:02OK. So, it's the face, it's the fat suit...
0:43:02 > 0:43:06And the clothes, and, er...
0:43:06 > 0:43:08But the attention to detail -
0:43:08 > 0:43:12the cigars, you chose the special cigars.
0:43:12 > 0:43:14Well, I did, and I used to smoke.
0:43:14 > 0:43:15I don't smoke any more
0:43:15 > 0:43:20and I got nicotine poisoning because I was on about 12 a day.
0:43:20 > 0:43:26I went through 30,000 of cigars on the sets...
0:43:27 > 0:43:29- That's crazy.- I mean...
0:43:29 > 0:43:33- How much are cigars?!- They're 50 quid a pop.- You're kidding!
0:43:33 > 0:43:37And I would do about 12 of them a day, so I got nicotine...
0:43:37 > 0:43:40I basically had a bad stomach
0:43:40 > 0:43:43for the three months I was on the show.
0:43:43 > 0:43:44We had a Christmas break
0:43:44 > 0:43:47and everybody went off and decorated their Christmas trees
0:43:47 > 0:43:50and went out shopping. I went and had a colonoscopy.
0:43:50 > 0:43:53LAUGHTER
0:43:55 > 0:43:58For the man who has everything!
0:43:59 > 0:44:02That was my Christmas present!
0:44:02 > 0:44:04So, you felt sick every day pretty much, then?
0:44:04 > 0:44:06Yeah, just...just it was...
0:44:06 > 0:44:08It was just... It was...
0:44:08 > 0:44:14I think it was the compression in the suit, dehydration, the cigars,
0:44:14 > 0:44:17it was a good... It's a price to pay, but...
0:44:17 > 0:44:20Can I just say something, cos I really admired what you said
0:44:20 > 0:44:23about Michael Jackson. I would never forgive myself, Gary,
0:44:23 > 0:44:26if I don't tell you you are one of the greatest actors

0:45:05 > 0:45:07- Yes, it's physical.- It's physical.
0:45:07 > 0:45:09I don't know if it's very special!

0:45:12 > 0:45:14or shall we just see it?
0:45:14 > 0:45:18Er, it's... Well, yes, it's...

0:53:47 > 0:53:50we do have time for just a visit to the Big Red Chair.
0:53:50 > 0:53:53And as it's Hogmanay, we're looking for stories
0:53:53 > 0:53:56with a New Year's resolution or a New Year's theme. So, who's first?
0:53:56 > 0:53:58- Hello!- Hi.

0:54:11 > 0:54:12- My name's Lorne.- Lorne, lovely.
0:54:12 > 0:54:15- And where are you from, Lorne? - I'm originally from Canada.
0:54:15 > 0:54:17- But you live here now?- I do. - What do you do?
0:54:17 > 0:54:19I run a legal advice centre.
0:54:19 > 0:54:22Oh! Posh job! And what's your New Year's resolution?
0:54:22 > 0:54:24Not to get pissed on New Year's.
0:54:24 > 0:54:27Oh. I think this will be a lot of people's New Year's resolution.
0:54:27 > 0:54:29OK, off you go with your story.
0:54:29 > 0:54:31So, a few years ago, I decided to bite the bullet
0:54:31 > 0:54:33and brave the cold for 12 hours
0:54:33 > 0:54:35to experience New Year's Eve in Times Square.
0:54:35 > 0:54:37It's about 20 minutes before the big ball drop,
0:54:37 > 0:54:39when the guy in front of me wallops me in the face.
0:54:39 > 0:54:41I immediately fall to the ground,
0:54:41 > 0:54:44but, to my dismay, the guy next to me is peeing into a bottle.
0:54:44 > 0:54:47My head hits the bottle, and he pees all over my head.
0:54:47 > 0:54:49ALL GROAN
0:54:49 > 0:54:51LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:55:01 > 0:55:04Somebody's pissing on your head!
0:55:04 > 0:55:06"I am so dismayed!"
0:55:06 > 0:55:09I've always wondered how they stand there for that long.
0:55:09 > 0:55:12- Like, where does everyone use the rest room?- Yeah.
0:55:12 > 0:55:15A friend of mine was a cop, he works there.
0:55:15 > 0:55:18You have to go in at four o'clock, if you want to be near the front,
0:55:18 > 0:55:19and you are told as you come in,
0:55:19 > 0:55:22you are not allowed to leave to go to the bathroom.
0:55:22 > 0:55:23Everyone's like, "Yeah, yeah, yeah."
0:55:23 > 0:55:26You know, about eight o'clock, "Everyone's like, I need to go."
0:55:26 > 0:55:29"No, we told you." And so, they have to...in bottles.
0:55:29 > 0:55:31OK, quickly, we're ignoring the people.
0:55:31 > 0:55:33So, who's up next, who's up next?

0:55:53 > 0:55:55New Year's Eve, cool!
0:55:55 > 0:55:58All right, what's your New Year's resolution?
0:55:58 > 0:56:01My New Year's resolution is to invest in better underwear.
0:56:01 > 0:56:04Oooh! Good start to a story, good start to a story!
0:56:04 > 0:56:07"I was dismayed to find..."!
0:56:07 > 0:56:09Off you go with your story.
0:56:09 > 0:56:12So, this is my first public humiliation.
0:56:12 > 0:56:16I was blossoming into a voluptuous young woman.
0:56:16 > 0:56:19I was very self-conscious about it, my family knew that,
0:56:19 > 0:56:21and, obviously, as Australians,
0:56:21 > 0:56:23they decided to tease me incessantly.
0:56:23 > 0:56:26Anyway, we go away to a beach holiday. We're all in bikinis.
0:56:26 > 0:56:28I'm getting teased on the beach for my big boobs.
0:56:28 > 0:56:30And I'm in a horrible mood.
0:56:30 > 0:56:33We go back to the house to have a shower before dinner.
0:56:33 > 0:56:36I go to the bathroom and I see my cousin,
0:56:36 > 0:56:38who was a lot more voluptuous than I was,
0:56:38 > 0:56:40I see her bikini there.
0:56:40 > 0:56:43So, I was like, "Oh, put her bikini on, show everyone,"
0:56:43 > 0:56:45and they'll be like, "Oh, we can't tease you any more,
0:56:45 > 0:56:49"your boobs aren't that big." So, I put it on, put the towel around me,
0:56:49 > 0:56:53strut out to the lounge room where everyone is, whip the towel off,
0:56:53 > 0:56:56strut into the room, just stand there with hands on my hips,
0:56:56 > 0:56:58and I'm like, "I told you they weren't that big."
0:56:58 > 0:57:01And then, there's this weird, shocked silence,
0:57:01 > 0:57:03and then they all started screaming, covering their faces.
0:57:03 > 0:57:06And I was like, "This is really rude."
0:57:06 > 0:57:08And then...
0:57:08 > 0:57:11And I look down, and I forgot to put on the bottoms.
0:57:11 > 0:57:13ALL ROAR, APPLAUSE
0:57:13 > 0:57:16Good story! Good story!
0:57:16 > 0:57:18- You can walk, darling.- Thank you!
0:57:19 > 0:57:22That was good.
0:57:22 > 0:57:24One more, one more, one more.
0:57:24 > 0:57:25This is the last.
0:57:25 > 0:57:27- Hello, sir.- Hello.
0:57:27 > 0:57:29- Hi, what's your name?- Simon.
0:57:29 > 0:57:32- Simon, lovely. And what do you do, Simon?- I'm an insurance broker.
0:57:32 > 0:57:35OK! There had to be one! LAUGHTER
0:57:35 > 0:57:38And what's your New Year's resolution?
0:57:38 > 0:57:40To get some better friends.
0:57:40 > 0:57:43ALL GROAN
0:57:43 > 0:57:46Well, we can't flip him now, can we?!
0:57:46 > 0:57:48Simon, he's alone.
0:57:48 > 0:57:50OK, off you go with your story.
0:57:50 > 0:57:53Well, a long time ago I had a bad knee injury playing rugby,
0:57:53 > 0:57:55and I needed an operation.
0:57:55 > 0:57:58Luckily I had some private health care,
0:57:58 > 0:58:00so I had a room to recover in.
0:58:00 > 0:58:01Oh, my God!
0:58:01 > 0:58:05I was recovering in my own room the day after the operation,
0:58:05 > 0:58:07feeling pretty sorry for myself, and a knock on the door,
0:58:07 > 0:58:10and it's the surgeon who's operated on me.
0:58:10 > 0:58:16He comes in, and he opens up the huge bandage on my left leg,
0:58:16 > 0:58:18and said, "OK, well, it's looking good,
0:58:18 > 0:58:21"but you need to stay still for an hour or so,
0:58:21 > 0:58:24"let the wound breathe, and I'll be back,
0:58:24 > 0:58:27"or one of the nurses will be back, to dress it, so just stay put."
0:58:27 > 0:58:29So I said, "Fine." So, he leaves,
0:58:29 > 0:58:31a couple of minutes later there's a knock on the door.
0:58:31 > 0:58:34Round the corner come two of my mates,
0:58:34 > 0:58:37clutching a bag of half-eaten grapes,
0:58:37 > 0:58:40sporting some grinning faces,
0:58:40 > 0:58:43and clutching a pretty graphic porn mag.
0:58:43 > 0:58:44ALL: Oh!
0:58:44 > 0:58:46So...
0:58:47 > 0:58:51It was... No animals, but it was not far short.
0:58:51 > 0:58:54So, they see my predicament.
0:58:54 > 0:58:57I'm lying there, I can't move, and they don't say a word.
0:58:57 > 0:59:00They proceed to take this magazine apart
0:59:00 > 0:59:04and stick every picture inside it on my bed, on the window,
0:59:04 > 0:59:09on the sheet the nurses will use to check my recovery.
0:59:09 > 0:59:10ALL GROAN
0:59:10 > 0:59:16And their parting gift was to press the nurse's button.
0:59:16 > 0:59:17GROANING AND LAUGHTER
0:59:17 > 0:59:19That is quite a good story.
0:59:19 > 0:59:21It was long. You can walk, walk, walk.
0:59:21 > 0:59:23APPLAUSE
