1. Yo, Great Britain! How are you
doing? Let me introduce the band.
Copy !req
2. On lead guitar, Anneka Rice.
Copy !req
3. And on sax, Bill Bailey.
Copy !req
4. And Sean Lock on drums.
Copy !req
5. And Alan Davies on the buses.
Copy !req
6. Alan is the conductor, of course.
There are only two rules.
Copy !req
7. Points for attitude
and points taken away for platitude.
Copy !req
8. Down to business. Question one.
Copy !req
9. Does the Pope eat beaver?
Copy !req
10. Sean Lock.
Copy !req
11. I would say yes because he's the
Pope. He can eat whatever he wants.
Copy !req
12. As a Catholic, can he have whatever
he wants on a Friday in Lent?
Copy !req
13. Yes.
Copy !req
14. If you want, you can do it again.
Copy !req
15. Thank you.
Copy !req
16. This is like
the Early Learning Centre.
Copy !req
17. Wasn't there a plan a few years ago
to reintroduce beaver into Scotland?
Copy !req
18. I didn't hear about it.
That was the Pope who ate it.
Copy !req
19. It's said to taste like beef.
Copy !req
20. They really are like
little people's arms. They are!
Copy !req
21. That is a person - that's the Pope.
Oh! The one on the right's a beaver.
Copy !req
22. You're right, his front paws...
They're like little hands.
Copy !req
23. But they... That's what the Pope's
saying - "Look at his little hands."
Copy !req
24. He's saying, "Are you ready
to order?" And he's going,
"Shall I have beaver?"
Copy !req
25. I mentioned Friday in Lent. What
do Catholics not eat on Fridays?
Copy !req
26. Meat. Flesh, as in animal flesh.
Copy !req
27. They eat fish. The Catholic Church
has designated beaver "fish" because
it's scaly and lives in water.
Copy !req
28. So, at all these little schools,
primary schools,
Copy !req
29. all over Italy, they have beaver,
chips and peas on a Friday?
Copy !req
30. Probably more
in American Catholic countries.
Copy !req
31. The capybara, the largest rodent
on Earth, a South American rodent -
Copy !req
32. 400 tonnes of it is eaten in Lent
in Venezuela alone.
Copy !req
33. Capybaras are also designated
as "fish".
Copy !req
34. The Pope, if he were to eat them,
would eat them on a Friday in Lent.
Copy !req
35. How would you tell the sex
of a beaver? They're only male.
Copy !req
36. The male would have a penis.
Yes, but it's hard to spot.
Copy !req
37. And the female would have a beaver.
Copy !req
38. A kind of a beaver's beaver.
Copy !req
39. Do we want to talk about
anal excretions?
Copy !req
40. I was about to bring that up
Copy !req
41. because in the anal scent glands
of the beaver
Copy !req
42. is secreted a substance which is
actually found in aspirin.
Copy !req
43. You're absolutely right.
I'll give you five points for that.
Copy !req
44. It's been used as a medicine for
hundreds of years. It's castoreum,
Copy !req
45. as in castor, the beaver,
and it contains salicylic acid.
If you've a headache,
Copy !req
46. and you're rimming a beaver...
Zip out a beaver. Quite right.
Copy !req
47. Unfortunately, the beaver's got
a headache and won't let you do it.
Copy !req
48. They have to do it to themselves
first. There's got to be
a plus side to rimming a beaver.
Copy !req
49. "Not tonight, I've got a headache."
"Don't worry about that."
Copy !req
50. Next question. If aliens arrived on
Earth to abduct our most successful
inhabitant, where would they look?
Copy !req
51. Neverland.
Copy !req
52. Are they aliens?
Copy !req
53. I think that's a popular idea.
How do we get shot of them?
Is that an alien boy band?
Copy !req
54. It's like alien YMCA.
Copy !req
55. They'd look and see which was
the most successful form of life.
Copy !req
56. Cockroaches. Bacteria.
Copy !req
57. Bacteria is the right answer.
Copy !req
58. By far. By any criterion by which
you judge, bacteria win hands down
Copy !req
59. in terms of profusion, diversity,
ability to live under extraordinary
conditions. Nobody likes them.
Copy !req
60. Well, we wouldn't be alive without
them. We entirely depend upon them.
Copy !req
61. If chickens had no bacteria,
it'd be completely tasteless,
like almost all food.
Copy !req
62. Only a very small number of bacteria
are dangerous.
Copy !req
63. If you took a gram of soil,
there are 40,000 species
of bacteria in that gram,
Copy !req
64. let alone the amount there are.
Copy !req
65. And each species is as different
from each other as a rhinoceros is
from a primrose.
Copy !req
66. They're amazing things. I want you
to fall in love with the bacterium.
Copy !req
67. They're the most marvellous things
conceivable. You've sold me.
Copy !req
68. They live in boiling acid,
ice, nuclear cooling water -
they can live absolutely anywhere.
Copy !req
69. Under 6,000 atmospheres of pressure.
Where's their favourite place
to hang out?
Copy !req
70. They love the human tummy.
Copy !req
71. We reckon 75% of bacteria in the
tummy haven't yet been identified as
separate species. They're fantastic.
Copy !req
72. They exist all over the place.
Copy !req
73. What about pygmies?
Pygmies are more hardy, aren't they?
Copy !req
74. They can live anywhere.
There's more comedy in them... Yeah.
.. than bacteria. Oh, bloody hell,
Copy !req
75. I'll have to warm up on my bacteria
gags. Why do you say that pygmies...?
Copy !req
76. Saying "successful" imbues them
with human characteristics. I mean
successful in Darwinian terms.
Copy !req
77. Are they all invisible
to the naked eye? Or are there any,
kind of, cat-sized?
Copy !req
78. No. Can I have one as a pet?
A big, hairy bacteria.
Copy !req
79. They look it under the microscope,
don't they?
Copy !req
80. They have parthenogenic sex
amongst themselves.
Copy !req
81. What sort of sex? Virgin birth.
Copy !req
82. They divide and split and divide...
Like amoebas. Reproduce their DNA.
Copy !req
83. How many amoebas does it take
to change a light bulb? One. No,
two. No, four. Eight. 16. 32. 64...
Copy !req
84. Stop! Stop!
Copy !req
85. Very, very good indeed.
Copy !req
86. We come to a sensitive subject now,
ladies and gentlemen - bulges.
Copy !req
87. The Latin for bulge or protuberance
is "torus",
Copy !req
88. not only the name for that doughnut
shape of particle accelerators, but
also the fleshy part of an apple.
Copy !req
89. And many people think
the universe is shaped like a torus.
Copy !req
90. I thought taurus was the bull.
No, this is TOR rather than TAU,
which is a bull.
Copy !req
91. Duh! Alan!
Copy !req
92. Alan! Uh-uh! Torus, uh-uh!
Copy !req
93. Uh-uh! Uh-uh! This it turning into
appalling primary school nonsense.
Copy !req
94. It's a charming mistake. It's
a homophone. They do sound the same.
Copy !req
95. And they hate gay people. No...
Copy !req
96. No, it's not hatred of gay people,
it's FEAR of gay people.
Yes, it is indeed.
Copy !req
97. The two are rather...
There is a phobia...
If you go to www.phobias.com...
Copy !req
98. Yes?
Copy !req
99. .. all the phobias are listed, and
there is a phobia of peanut butter
sticking to the roof of your mouth.
Copy !req
100. You have to be good at Greek
to give that a name.
Copy !req
101. They're all there, from A to Z. The
bloke who runs it has a disclaimer -
"I can't cure any of these.
Copy !req
102. "I just compiled the list."
Yes, and they're all there.
Copy !req
103. Pogonophobia is the fear of beards.
Is it? Irrational fear of beards.
Copy !req
104. I don't know if it means you're
frightened of people with beards
or just giant beards.
Copy !req
105. There's everything. Fear of bees.
The fear of people is anthropophobia.
Copy !req
106. Yes. The fear of flowers
is anthrophobia.
Copy !req
107. They're different.
Copy !req
108. Anthophobia, it should be,
as in anthology, meaning
a collection of flowers. Does it?
Copy !req
109. Anther is the Greek for flowers,
as in polyanther.
Copy !req
110. Oh.
Copy !req
111. I thought I was doing well.
You're doing terribly well.
Ailurophobia, what's that?
Copy !req
112. The fear of being ailured?
Copy !req
113. Cats. Is it? Yes.
Copy !req
114. Leuchiffaphobia... Yes? is
the fear of not being able to find
a receipt for a faulty item.
Copy !req
115. Presumably, every phobia has
a philia, as it were,
Copy !req
116. so you could apply the same
to a love of having peanut butter
stuck to the roof of your mouth.
Copy !req
117. I'd have thought a glass of water
when eating a peanut butter sandwich
would clear that problem.
Copy !req
118. Ever the practical woman.
You're so right.
Copy !req
119. There's a fortune to be made
from that cure.
Copy !req
120. None of which has anything to do
with the question.
In the Battle of the Bulge,
Copy !req
121. who were the Stomach Division?
The Germans.
Copy !req
122. They were a German division,
a German, er...
A regiment of darts players.
Copy !req
123. They were a division.
Certainly a good description.
Jocky Wilson and Eric Bristow.
Copy !req
124. We're clear on what the Battle of
the Bulge was? It was in Belgium
in the Second World War,
Copy !req
125. when the Allies were advancing
and the Germans went for
one big counter-offensive.
Copy !req
126. And it was so successful
that they made a film about it.
Copy !req
127. It delayed the Americans. It was the
largest infantry battle in American
military history, and the bloodiest.
Copy !req
128. 600,000 Americans were involved -
more than the Battle of Gettysburg,
which had Americans on both sides.
Copy !req
129. It was called the Bulge because...?
Copy !req
130. Because the battle line was
drawn out like that, and the bulge
was the advancing army.
Copy !req
131. The German counter-attack made
a bulge in the line. We're talking
about very late... 1944. Exactly.
Copy !req
132. Stalin's Red Army is pushing through
eastern Poland towards Germany.
Copy !req
133. And there are so few German soldiers
left after all this fighting
Copy !req
134. that they decide they must
use people with a sick note,
but only for a slight problem,
Copy !req
135. like a tummy bug.
Copy !req
136. So all those people off sick
with stomach problems
Copy !req
137. were marshalled into a division of
the 70th Infantry... They all felt
a bit unwell. .. of the Wehrmacht,
Copy !req
138. called the Stomach Division.
They all had the runs.
Copy !req
139. They displayed outstanding guts.
Copy !req
140. But they were given their own
latrines and special diet...
Copy !req
141. And given a wide berth
by most of them.
Copy !req
142. So they were called the Stomach
Division because they were ill? Yeah.
Copy !req
143. And called up at the last minute?
Yes. Obviously, missing legs or
severe illnesses, you were exempt...
Copy !req
144. With a bit of windy-pops
they get out there. Exactly.
Copy !req
145. "Durchfall" is a rather good
German word for diarrhoea which
means literally "through fall".
Copy !req
146. Diarrhoea means "run through"
in Greek.
Copy !req
147. Was it just physical ailments?
No other ailments? No mad ones?
Copy !req
148. Someone with a terrible stutter
in charge of the gunnery?
Copy !req
149. "F-F-F..."What? What?"
Copy !req
150. No, these were
the rather idealistically...
Copy !req
151. Did you know
that in the Special Olympics,
handicapped people's games... Yeah.
Copy !req
152. .. they let people in... Paralympics,
they call it. Yes. They allow people
in who are a bit mad as well.
Copy !req
153. The Spanish basketball team,
a few pretended to be mentally ill
to get in. I heard about that.
Copy !req
154. And they won the gold medal.
Copy !req
155. Let that be on your conscience.
Copy !req
156. Opponents would go,
"Hang on, he's not mad.
Copy !req
157. "I'M mad, he's not mad."
Copy !req
158. He's going, "I am, I'm mad."
Copy !req
159. The Wehrmacht's 70th Infantry
were known as the Stomach Division.
Copy !req
160. Due to indisposition, they couldn't
attend the Battle of the Bulge.
Copy !req
161. All 10,000 of them were mopped up
by the Canadians.
Copy !req
162. But what bulges up and down
by about 30cm twice a day?
Copy !req
163. Is it a fat pilot's ankles? No.
Copy !req
164. Takeoff.
Copy !req
165. Mount Everest.
Well, actually, expand that.
The whole surface of the Earth.
Copy !req
166. The Earth's crust. The whole Earth.
Does it? Yes.
Copy !req
167. We know that the seas do because of
the tidal pull of the moon.
Copy !req
168. But the Earth too
is also pulled slightly.
Copy !req
169. Can we clear up once and for all how
the Moon makes the sea go in and out?
Copy !req
170. As... If you think...
Copy !req
171. Don't fall for this.
He's like some kid.
Copy !req
172. Objects in space are attracted to
each other at a ratio of the inverse
of the square of their distances,
Copy !req
173. as Newton made clear.
Copy !req
174. But that's too hard, you see. Imagine
you're talking to a small child.
Copy !req
175. I was!
Copy !req
176. Imagine the sea is made of iron
filings and the Moon is a magnet.
Copy !req
177. Why is the Moon a magnet?
Copy !req
178. Because it has a gravitation effect,
like magnetism...
Copy !req
179. Surely the Earth's stronger than the
Moon. Why isn't it pulled in to us?
In orbit, it's entirely around us.
Copy !req
180. But it's fighting... But it still has
a... We have a massive effect on it.
Copy !req
181. If it had water, its tides would...
It'd be terrible.
Copy !req
182. So it's as if it's literally
pulling the seas.
Copy !req
183. They bulge and you get the tides...
Copy !req
184. Does it pull the liquid in people?
Copy !req
185. We are 90% water, aren't we? Yeah.
So are we going..."Whoa!
Copy !req
186. "Whoa! Whoa!" the whole time?
Never mind all this
having Pisces rising in your sap.
Copy !req
187. That's all just a distraction.
The Moon's making us all go, "Whoa!
Copy !req
188. "Whoa!" all the time. It's not
making us do that all the time,
or we'd have noticed.
Copy !req
189. SOME people do that.
Copy !req
190. Thet behave a little bit like
the Spanish basketball team.
Copy !req
191. Ever heard of a thing called a book?
Copy !req
192. They're about that big,
and you open them up at the front
Copy !req
193. and there's all words...
Copy !req
194. Yeah, yeah.
Copy !req
195. Sean, it's never good
to mock people who are trying.
Copy !req
196. Hang on!
Copy !req
197. When you say trying... No!
Copy !req
198. We're still struggling under
the letter B. We've had bacteria,
bulge... Yes and beavers.
Copy !req
199. We've had a lot of beaver, but
now... And quite a lot of bollocks.
Copy !req
200. Yes, a great deal of bollocks.
Copy !req
201. We now have a buzzer question
for everyone. Fingers poised.
Copy !req
202. Speaking of tidal bulges,
how many moons does the Earth have?
Copy !req
203. Two. NO!
Copy !req
204. Oh, dear, oh, dear!
Copy !req
205. We did this last series! Yes,
but that was last year. Three more
have been discovered. Oh, shut up!
Copy !req
206. It's true! It's true!
Copy !req
207. I know it seems astonishing,
but it's absolutely true.
Copy !req
208. Do you remember last year...?
Cruithne. Well remembered!
Copy !req
209. It was supposedly pronounced
CREENIE or something like that.
Copy !req
210. Cruithne was discovered in 1997
and it has a weird horseshoe orbit.
Copy !req
211. It bounces like that.
Copy !req
212. Since then, there have been some
more. They've got exciting names -
Copy !req
213. they're 2000PH5,
Copy !req
214. and 2002AA29.
Copy !req
215. Those are their names. Some people
say they aren't really moons,
but they are like moons.
Copy !req
216. They're not visible to the human
eye, so you can say there's one
or five, but certainly not two.
Copy !req
217. Is there evidence that people are
more bonkers under a full moon? No.
Copy !req
218. They did research and there's been
anecdotal evidence that at loony
bins you have to lock them up,
Copy !req
219. but there's no clear evidence
that people behave oddly.
Copy !req
220. So why do I go out killing?
Copy !req
221. Good.
Copy !req
222. So, there we are,
it's certainly not two moons.
Copy !req
223. Which brings us appropriately
to our general ignorance round
to end our show.
Copy !req
224. We ask over and over again
the same question - what did you go
to school for? Fingers on buzzers.
Copy !req
225. How many points do you need
to win a game of table tennis?
Copy !req
226. 21.
Copy !req
227. NO!
Copy !req
228. It is 21. No, it isn't, I'm afraid.
The rules were changed.
Copy !req
229. What?
Copy !req
230. I know it sounds absurd,
but they were.
Copy !req
231. The rules were changed last year.
It's 11.
Copy !req
232. You knew! It's so new.
Copy !req
233. The rule was changed in July 2003.
When they discovered the other moon.
Copy !req
234. I'll let Alan get five points back
if he can give me the reason.
Two things happened, essentially.
Copy !req
235. They made it 11 and also increased
the size of the ball by 2mm.
Copy !req
236. Larger? They made the ball larger?
Yeah.
Copy !req
237. To make the game easier?
This question's just for stupid...
just for Alan.
Copy !req
238. To get five points back. I can't...
Copy !req
239. One thing - what do you and I
both feed, like whores?
Copy !req
240. Pardon?
Copy !req
241. What?
Copy !req
242. You and I, what do we earn
our daily crust from? From the...?
Copy !req
243. Feeding that cathode-ray tub,
the television. Television.
Copy !req
244. The games are shorter. It makes it
14% slower, more easy to watch...
Copy !req
245. On television. That's right.
And games are shorter because humans
are just gibbering maniacs...
Copy !req
246. They really are. .. and have to
vomit up a pizza every five minutes.
Copy !req
247. How many bacteria are there
on a table-tennis ball? Many.
Copy !req
248. Cos they must be hardy souls,
mustn't they?
Copy !req
249. Pop! Whoa!
Copy !req
250. So it's first to 11? Yeah. So that's
the reason. What they should get rid
of is the awful noise trainers make.
Copy !req
251. I know. Squeak, squeak, squeak.
Copy !req
252. That's why I kill.
That's why you kill.
Copy !req
253. As a first-timer on this show,
here's a question specially for you.
Copy !req
254. You're touring
in the Vagina Monologues.
Copy !req
255. I understand you're an expert
in this field. So tell me - how many
vaginas does a kangaroo have?
Copy !req
256. There's a kangaroo there.
Are they vaginas on top of its head?
Copy !req
257. I would say four.
Copy !req
258. I'll throw
the kangaroo's vagina open.
Copy !req
259. Is it none? No vaginas?
Copy !req
260. No.
Copy !req
261. 800.
Copy !req
262. 801.
Copy !req
263. Anybody in the audience?
Copy !req
264. Three is the right answer. Yes!
We got there.
Copy !req
265. It's an extraordinary thing.
Copy !req
266. It has... in case you're wondering,
that's two up and one across
in terms of configuration.
Copy !req
267. I know what happens when they give
birth. The baby crawls across the
mother's body and goes in the pouch.
Copy !req
268. There are unborn foetuses
that know that, but the question
that's more interesting is...
Copy !req
269. that it actually has two wombs,
the female kangaroo,
Copy !req
270. and that it gives birth to a baby,
a joey,
Copy !req
271. and if it doesn't survive...
A joey, mate.
Copy !req
272. Whichever you like.
Copy !req
273. If it doesn't survive the year, that
triggers the birth of another joey
Copy !req
274. in the other womb which comes out of
the other vagina, the other uterus.
Copy !req
275. So it's like a backup. The third one
is for luck. That's not understood.
Only two wombs, but three vaginas.
Copy !req
276. The male has four penises
so there's a lot of running going
on. No, how many DOES it have?
Copy !req
277. Two. Two. Yes.
Copy !req
278. Well, one split into two.
Known as the hemipenis.
Copy !req
279. He's racking up points
in the last round.
Copy !req
280. I've eaten kangaroo and they taste
very much like wallaby.
Copy !req
281. Can I just also say...?
A wallaby is someone who really
wants to be a kangaroo, isn't it?
Copy !req
282. Can I just tell you -
cos it's one thing I learned
during the Vagina Monologues -
Copy !req
283. the clitoris is the only organ
in the male or female body
that's designed purely for pleasure.
Copy !req
284. It has no other use at all.
And it has 8,000 nerve endings,
twice the number in the penis.
Copy !req
285. Isn't the clitoris for balancing
pound coins on for parking?
Copy !req
286. That was either completely surreal
or I've missed a verbal connection.
Copy !req
287. You know, one of those things
on a spring. You press them
and they ping back up.
Copy !req
288. Is that called a clitoris? Isn't it?
Those things you lick, press and
they ping up. Isn't that a clitoris?
Copy !req
289. No. Oh.
Copy !req
290. Two thirds of your answer
was correct.
Copy !req
291. It's got no other use. It's the only
thing, just there for decoration.
Copy !req
292. In my case, that's true
of the penis too, but, um...
Copy !req
293. From one kind... So, Stephen, what
are you pissing through these days?
Copy !req
294. Don't you love pissing?
I love to piss.
Copy !req
295. From one kind of unusual birth to
another. What was quite interesting
about the birth of Julius Caesar?
Copy !req
296. Yes? Er, he was a wolf.
Something to do with a wolf.
Copy !req
297. He was chucked out by a wolf.
Copy !req
298. That's an unfortunate elision
of Romulus and Remus,
not Julius Caesar.
Copy !req
299. They were suckled by wolves.
Copy !req
300. Caesarean section.
Copy !req
301. Oh, dear, oh, dear, oh, dear!
Copy !req
302. Oh, dear! I'm afraid that's
another cunningly laid trap
you've fallen into, Mr Bond.
Copy !req
303. I felt that might happen,
to be honest.
Copy !req
304. A tragic inevitability. Something
about that felt... The fact is...
Copy !req
305. I'm a bit lemming-like.
Small, furry and attractive.
Copy !req
306. Steven Wright said he was born by
Caesarean. It doesn't affect him,
except that he leaves by the window.
Copy !req
307. Julius Caesar was born
by Caesarean section. No, he was not!
Copy !req
308. What does it mean? It's a corruption
of "cadere", meaning to cut.
Copy !req
309. There was such a thing as what
we call Caesarean section in Roman
times, but the mother always died.
Copy !req
310. Slash and grab. Aurelia, who was...
Copy !req
311. Caesar's mother lived well into
his adulthood, so he can't have
been born by Caesarean section.
Copy !req
312. So that's not the answer?
How was he born?
Copy !req
313. We don't know anything extraordinary
about his birth,
Copy !req
314. we just wanted laughing boy to fall
into the trap. I'm afraid it worked.
Copy !req
315. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
316. So it was purely a trap,
Sorry about that.
Copy !req
317. Sculptors couldn't do the eyes
in them days, could they? No.
Copy !req
318. It's just rubbish. They say, "What
do you think?" They went, "Duh!"
Copy !req
319. They haven't even tried!
They coloured them in.
Copy !req
320. They used to paint them. Quite right.
Do I get points for that? Yes.
Copy !req
321. English churches were also painted.
Copy !req
322. The white cliffs of Dover
were coloured in once.
Copy !req
323. A big jungle scene - giraffes.
Copy !req
324. Oh, dear! A massive mural
all over the south coast.
Copy !req
325. All the different peoples
of the world holding hands.
Copy !req
326. All pointing at Westlife drowning
in the sea, and going, "Hey!"
Copy !req
327. Did they used to do public drownings?
Copy !req
328. Why don't they drown
people on Death Row?
Copy !req
329. You could ask for
your last meal to be coconuts
and you could form a raft.
Copy !req
330. Those bloody last meals!
They always ask for the last thing.
Copy !req
331. It's always cheeseburger...
cheeseburger, fries and a Coke,
Copy !req
332. which we non-criminals refer to
as a Happy Meal.
Copy !req
333. But, er...
Copy !req
334. I just don't understand why
they don't ask for something like
a stale baguette and a pineapple
Copy !req
335. and form like a medieval mace
and just sort of...
Copy !req
336. That brings us attractively
to our next question,
which is not unconnected.
Copy !req
337. For what offences in the UK
can you still be put to death?
Copy !req
338. Burning Her Majesty's ships
in her ports. Oh, dear, oh, dear!
Copy !req
339. Oh, dear! Arson in the royal
dockyards is not a capital offence,
so 20 away from you.
Copy !req
340. Yes?
Copy !req
341. Er, puppetry in the royal dockyards.
Copy !req
342. Treason! Oh, dear! Oh, dear!
Copy !req
343. Oh, dear, oh, dear!
Copy !req
344. I don't believe it! Like a heffalump
into the honey trap. There you are.
Copy !req
345. There are no capital offences
in the UK since 1999 when Jack Straw
signed the 6th Protocol, I think,
Copy !req
346. of the European
Declaration of Human Rights.
Copy !req
347. Treason and piracy ceased to be
capital offences in 1998
Copy !req
348. and the death penalty for arson
in Her Majesty's dockyards
was quietly abolished in 1971.
Copy !req
349. On a distinctly final note,
what are dead bodies eaten by?
Copy !req
350. Yes? Um...
Copy !req
351. Oh, I nearly said worms.
I bet that's wrong.
Copy !req
352. No! I didn't say worms.
Copy !req
353. I didn't say worms!
Copy !req
354. Worms came out of your mouth, but we
shouldn't take away those points...
Copy !req
355. Bacteria.
Copy !req
356. Yes, quite right.
Our dear, new, best friends.
Copy !req
357. They eat us all. They've been
in the living body all along
and end up... Or cannibals.
Copy !req
358. They eat dead bodies. Some choose to.
Copy !req
359. Forgetful grave diggers.
"Where's my packed lunch? Oh!"
Copy !req
360. The worst place for bacteria is the
kitchen. Chopping boards have three
times more than lavatory seats
Copy !req
361. and dishcloths a million times more
than that, which is quite scary.
Copy !req
362. So there's your bacteria.
Copy !req
363. Just time to see the final scores
which are, in reverse order,
Copy !req
364. out in front with seven points,
Anneka Rice.
Copy !req
365. Wow!
Copy !req
366. One behind on six points,
Bill Bailey.
Copy !req
367. And third equal on minus 18 points
each, Sean Lock, Alan Davies.
Copy !req
368. That's all from Alan and Bill,
Copy !req
369. Anneka, Sean and me.
Copy !req
370. Please write to us if you've
something interesting to add,
Copy !req
371. but don't point out that beavers
can be mistaken for euphemisms.
We never use euphemisms
Copy !req
372. and people who do are complete
front bottoms. Good night.
