1
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:07,600
This programme contains
very strong language.
2
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:10,520
2019 was the most tumultuous year to
hit calendars since records began
in 2018 -
3
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:13,360
a time of upheaval, conflict,
and a banana duct-taped to a wall.
4
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:15,960
This is its story, through the
mouths of those who saw it.
5
00:00:22,080 --> 00:00:25,120
Standing here in
the English countryside,
6
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:27,720
it may not seem obvious,
7
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:32,440
but we are facing a man-made
disaster on a global scale.
8
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:34,840
David Attenborough did
a TV show about the environment
9
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:36,720
called Climate Change - The Facts,
10
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:40,160
which is irresponsible of him
because you can't change the facts.
11
00:00:40,160 --> 00:00:42,720
That's what all the science people
in the programme kept saying.
12
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,160
Once you've crossed
the tipping point, that's it -
13
00:00:45,160 --> 00:00:48,000
you've triggered
a catastrophic change.
14
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,520
It was basically a snuff movie
starring everyone on the planet,
15
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:53,760
all the animals and the ice
16
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,400
and the forests and the oceans -
everything.
17
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,680
All the way down to the ants,
probably.
18
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,200
They didn't actually show
what'll happen to the ants,
19
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,040
but they're the first to go in
a stampede situation,
20
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:08,800
so chances are they're fucked too.
21
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,880
2019 was scary in a lot of ways,
but I think the scariest part
22
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:15,280
of the year was when this girl
travelling through time
23
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,440
to the Davos summit to bring us
all a warning from the future.
24
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,240
I am here to say our house
25
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:21,760
is on fire.
26
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:23,440
It was like something from
a horror movie
27
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:27,440
except instead of riding a tricycle
around an abandoned hotel,
28
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,280
she was delivering
a terrifying prophecy,
29
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,440
and the twist was it's true.
30
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:35,280
People are suffering,
people are dying,
31
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:39,080
entire ecosystems are collapsing.
32
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,600
Normally I'd just ignore
the terrified pleading of a child,
33
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,320
but even I've noticed the weather's
been a bit weird this year,
34
00:01:45,320 --> 00:01:47,120
like it's on shuffle mode.
35
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,320
One minute it was colder than ever,
36
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,040
and then it was wetter than ever,
37
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:52,920
then it was hotter than ever.
38
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,120
At one point,
the Amazon caught fire,
39
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,800
which must have been a real blow to
those people trying to chop it down.
40
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:03,240
The eyes of all future generations
are upon you,
41
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:08,720
and if you choose to fail us,
I say, we will never forgive you.
42
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,360
Whenever there's a kid asking
difficult questions,
43
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:12,960
it's important to ask,
44
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,400
what's her background? You know?
45
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,680
How can I discredit this?
46
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,600
And it turns out her mum
took part in Eurovision once.
47
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,760
# Can you keep a secret?
Can you keep a secret? #
48
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,640
So she's just part of
the Eurovision elite.
49
00:02:28,640 --> 00:02:31,280
Even though everything Greta
Thunderberg said was depressing,
50
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,920
she got really popular,
like Radiohead.
51
00:02:33,920 --> 00:02:36,160
And soon she was on tour,
hanging out on yachts
52
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,040
and meeting Hollywood stars.
53
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,080
And because she was making everybody
focus on this massive threat
54
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,640
to human civilisation, some people
got annoyed she was taking
55
00:02:44,640 --> 00:02:48,040
attention away from more important
things, like themselves.
56
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,560
No, I think she needs to get
back to school and shut up.
57
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:55,880
Grown men taking the piss out of
a 16-year-old girl sounds cowardly,
58
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,960
but when you think about what
massive wankers it made them seem
59
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:03,680
to literally everyone, it's
an act of extreme heroism, in a way.
60
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,160
A bit like being
a first responder rushing selflessly
61
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,000
into the Twin Towers,
62
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,280
but the cunt's version of that.
63
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,120
They'll probably make a movie
about her life.
64
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,080
I don't know what
the overall story will be,
65
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,560
but because
she's a Swedish schoolgirl
66
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,840
that middle-aged men seem to hate,
it'll basically be the opposite
67
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,960
of the last 40 or so
Woody Allen films.
68
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,320
Here, schoolchildren across the UK
have been taking part
69
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:30,200
in a day of protests, calling
for action on climate change.
70
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,360
We have to do something
to save the planet.
71
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,240
ALL CHANT: This is what democracy
looks like!
72
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:36,480
It was a strange feeling,
73
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:40,080
seeing all these tiny children
marching to demand a future.
74
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:44,000
It filled me with despair,
but it also made me quite broody,
75
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,520
and now I can't wait to have
a frightened little baby.
76
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,680
The kids say all they want is
a future, which is fine,
77
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,360
but a few years ago, they said all
they wanted was a fidget spinner.
78
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,200
Make up your fucking minds.
79
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,080
It is one craze after another
with them.
80
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,440
They'll be into something
else in a few years,
81
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,160
like fighting for water
or something.
82
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,440
The kids weren't
the only ones protesting.
83
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,760
There were these Extinction
Rebel Lion people as well
84
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,480
who took over bits of London.
85
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:15,880
It's a good cause, but it did
look like the whitest carnival ever.
86
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,720
At one point,
they stopped people using the tube.
87
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,360
A lot of people said the protesters
88
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,480
shouldn't have targeted
public transport because
89
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:26,040
it's one of the most environmentally
friendly ways of travelling.
90
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,680
You're stopping an electric train.
It's electric.
91
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,480
But sometimes, in a protest,
it's important to do things that
92
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,520
make absolutely no fucking sense
and alienate everyone.
93
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,560
The thing with climate change is
it's hard to know what to think.
94
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,040
You've got half the world's
scientists saying one thing
95
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,120
and the other half completely
agreeing with them.
96
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,120
So it's all just their opinion.
97
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,080
If we all ate less meat,
that would help.
98
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:48,760
I'm fully vegan now,
99
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,200
apart from the odd bit of
cheese and chorizo.
100
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:52,520
And Bovril.
101
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,720
Hi. Morning, Martin. Hi, how are
you? Morning, everyone.
102
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,440
In the past, politicians had to
pretend to be nice
103
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,800
and friendly, like an eerie
neighbour who just wants to talk,
104
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,160
but now they've learnt
they don't have to be nice at all.
105
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,640
Some of them overdo it
and say things that are so awful,
106
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:08,920
it sort of backfires.
107
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,240
I think we should treat women
the same as men, and that means
108
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,160
if a woman is being a giant bitch,
I'm going
109
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,840
to be a giant dick back to her.
Any questions?
110
00:05:15,840 --> 00:05:20,280
The news kept covering it in detail.
Everything about it was insane.
111
00:05:20,280 --> 00:05:23,320
Some people on the left didn't
like having these provocative,
112
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,400
intolerant people around,
so they started lobbing milkshakes
113
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,760
over them to test whether they were
lactose intolerant too.
114
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:31,440
And usually, they filmed it as well.
115
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,280
I think, technically,
it's called a cream pie video.
116
00:05:34,280 --> 00:05:37,760
There's a sort of middle ground
of unpleasantness that works well.
117
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,600
You have to say or do
something dodgy,
118
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:45,360
but not so dodgy no-one will defend
it, like a white bloke wearing
119
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,520
blackface in the dark, you know,
something that'll divide
120
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,360
and confuse people just enough
that they spend their time arguing
121
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,400
with each other rather
than with you.
122
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,840
Apparently, everyone's caught
polarisation, which is
123
00:05:57,840 --> 00:06:01,280
this sort of brain disease where
you're angry all the time.
124
00:06:01,280 --> 00:06:05,160
It spreads on the internet,
and there's no vaccine for it yet.
125
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,160
And even if there was,
I wouldn't take it,
126
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,160
because I don't believe in vaccines
any more, because of Facebook.
127
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,520
What do we want? Brexit!
When do we want it? Now!
128
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:17,000
It's all because of Brexit,
basically. It's torn people apart.
129
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,400
My mate Paul's finding it extra
hard, because he's bipolar,
130
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,200
and his upside is Remain,
but his downside is Leave.
131
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,880
He's barely on speaking terms with
himself most days,
132
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,280
which is quite an improvement,
actually.
133
00:06:30,280 --> 00:06:35,640
Out! Out! Out! Out! Out!
Out! Out! Out!
134
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,880
Out! Out! Out! Out! Out!
135
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,000
I've got so used to hating
everything, I was eating
136
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,240
a biscuit the other day, and I
suddenly thought, fuck this biscuit!
137
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,000
You know? I don't want
a Bourbon cream.
138
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,440
Fuck you, you crunchy fucking
cream-filled prick!
139
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,920
Fuck off back to your biscuit tin!
And then I thought, what am I doing?
140
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,560
You know? What have I become?
Who do I think I am?
141
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,800
Who the fuck am I looking at?
Do I fucking want some?
142
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,440
And I kicked the shit out of myself,
right there in the kitchen,
143
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,760
really gave me what for, and it all
felt a bit better after that.
144
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,560
But Britain isn't the only
disunited country.
145
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:13,400
Since Donald Trump became
President in 2017 with no government
146
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,400
experience - something which is
still true today -
147
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,200
the USA has also been
at war with itself.
148
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,560
Fuck you! Fuck you! Fuck you!
149
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,240
Trump keeps doing
stuff like locking kids in cages
150
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,440
and telling people to go back to
where they came from,
151
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,720
which they can't anyway,
because he's building
152
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:31,880
a wall around the country to
stop them from escaping.
153
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,240
Donald Trump should be a hero
to a lot of people.
154
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:37,560
He's really moved the goalposts
on how incompetent you can be and
155
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:38,840
still keep your job.
156
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:42,040
I hope they now go and take a look
at the oranges,
157
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,400
the oranges of the...er,
investigation.
158
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,680
If he'd been in my office,
he'd have had at least one verbal
159
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,480
warning by now, and he might have
been asked to go on a course.
160
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,040
There was loads
and loads of coverage of it.
161
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,880
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi
announcing a formal
162
00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,880
impeachment
inquiry of President Trump.
163
00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:02,920
The President responding on Twitter,
calling it "more breaking
164
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,640
"news Witch Hunt garbage"
and "presidential harassment".
165
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,480
Anyway, now they're trying to
impeach him, which I think is
166
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:13,280
some sort of skin treatment to
make him the right colour again.
167
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,240
The last president who got impeached
was Bill Clinton, who had to
168
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,880
resign and was never seen
or heard of again,
169
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,240
but then Clinton's crimes were
unforgivable, like doing hand
170
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,120
and mouth stuff with a lady
who wasn't his wife.
171
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:26,760
I don't know what Trump's
accused of,
172
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:30,000
but I'd be amazed if he's ever done
something as bad as that.
173
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,440
Anyway, it's not just in Britain
and America -
174
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,280
everywhere on the planet's
totally polarised,
175
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:39,960
except for the North and South Pole,
and that's only because
176
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:44,000
penguins haven't got broadband,
so they're not on social media yet.
177
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,840
I'm calling you a liar right now.
178
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,720
Don't get me wrong - all this
constant modern hate is good fun,
179
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,920
but it's knackering after a while.
180
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:57,640
All my frowning muscles are worn out
and my throat's raw from shouting.
181
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,920
Some mornings,
I can barely shake a fist.
182
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,000
I think what I need is
a bit of a break,
183
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,160
maybe tone it down for a weekend,
184
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,960
spend it just
slightly resenting things.
185
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,040
I need to recharge my batteries,
because in 2020,
186
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:15,200
I'm hoping to hate the fucking shit
out of everything that moves.
187
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,760
Throughout 2019, entertainment
helped provide
188
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,560
a little respite from our
troubled world.
189
00:09:21,560 --> 00:09:24,960
One of my favourite movie
moments of 2019
190
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,080
was when they remade the Lion King,
191
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,520
because they got rid of those stupid
cartoon drawings everybody
192
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:35,240
hated so much in the first one and
did it properly, using real lions.
193
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,440
It was really impressive.
If you think about how long it takes
194
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:39,920
to do a David Attenborough,
195
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,440
where the cameraman has to
hide in a bush for two years just to
196
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,040
film a chinchilla having a shit,
197
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,320
to have to wait until the lions were
198
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,280
doing the exact same thing
as the cartoon lions,
199
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:51,400
in the original,
200
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,480
like, a shot for shot remake,
201
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,080
must have taken forever.
202
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,920
I mean, the chances of getting even
one shot are remote.
203
00:09:57,920 --> 00:09:59,960
Some people said it wasn't very good
204
00:09:59,960 --> 00:10:02,840
because they couldn't tell one lion
from another...
205
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,880
..which is sort of
lion racism, really.
206
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:07,760
And they
complained the real lions
207
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,160
weren't as expressive
as the cartoon lions.
208
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,560
But that's not
real lions' fault.
209
00:10:12,560 --> 00:10:14,680
For one thing,
they've never been to acting school.
210
00:10:14,680 --> 00:10:17,000
They're just not given
those opportunities,
211
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,080
and, for another thing,
that's just how lions' faces work.
212
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,080
They don't have emotion muscles.
And, anyway,
213
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,880
they made up for it with
all their lovely singing.
214
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:30,760
# Hakuna matata
Hakuna, matata, hakuna, matata... #
215
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:34,280
The thing is, it looked like actual
footage but apparently
216
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,320
they did a lot of it with CGI, which
is an even more amazing achievement.
217
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,640
I don't envy whoever had
to squeeze all the real lions
218
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,440
into those bright green leotards
with ping-pong balls all over them.
219
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,400
All the animals in it
look totally real,
220
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,120
except they don't have bumholes,
221
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,480
so when they eat food,
they can't get it out afterwards.
222
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,760
They must just keep swelling
and swelling until they burst,
223
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,800
all up the walls of that computer
universe they're in.
224
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,800
The good thing is now we've got
backup copies of all these animals,
225
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,160
so when the environment goes to shit
226
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:08,440
and all the real ones die,
we can still go to the zoo in VR.
227
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,480
Literally, the only difference
is going to be the bumholes.
228
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,560
And I can live with that.
229
00:11:13,560 --> 00:11:17,200
Quintin Cappuccino made a new
version of that film he does.
230
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:20,040
It was called
"ONSE Upon a Time in Hollywood."
231
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:21,680
It was based around
the Manson killings
232
00:11:21,680 --> 00:11:23,600
which was this
genuine tragedy in America
233
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:27,120
where a load of people were murdered
by these mad hippies on LSD.
234
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,360
And it explored
that by concentrating on two blokes
235
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,640
who weren't there and didn't exist.
236
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,120
One of the murder victims
was Sharon Tate.
237
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,040
It really brought her life
back to life.
238
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,920
Like, you saw how she might have
gone shopping, or sort
239
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:45,200
of walked about, or lived next door
to these two more interesting men.
240
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,840
Before the film, I didn't know
anything about Sharon Tate,
241
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,840
but afterwards,
I knew even less, which is good
242
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,680
because it means it kept
a respectful distance.
243
00:11:53,680 --> 00:11:55,560
You know, leave Sharon Tate alone.
244
00:11:55,560 --> 00:11:59,160
She's dead, except in this,
where she's still alive,
245
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,640
just standing around looking
pretty in the background,
246
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:03,280
not really saying much.
247
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,280
Which is what she would have wanted.
248
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,360
Well, it might be. We'll never know.
249
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,960
So it might as well be what
she would have wanted.
250
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,840
I mean, at least
she's still working.
251
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,800
Some people got upset because Sharon
Tate doesn't get much dialogue.
252
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:17,880
But there's others
who have a worse time.
253
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,720
Like, even though the whole thing
was Charles Manson's idea,
254
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,600
he's totally overlooked.
255
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,960
He's in one scene
and he has about two lines,
256
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:28,640
so he's the real victim here!
257
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,160
WILD CACKLING
258
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:33,400
There was this sort of film
thing called Joker.
259
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,760
It was like a dark origin
story about the actual
260
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:37,560
joker off of playing cards.
261
00:12:37,560 --> 00:12:40,040
That's the one card no-one wants.
262
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:41,880
No-one even plays with it, which is
263
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:46,360
probably why he felt all left behind
and angry. So, in many ways,
264
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:50,080
it was like a sort of dark reboot
of Play Your Cards Right,
265
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,480
but with Robert De Niro
instead of Bruce Forsyth.
266
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,680
It's actually set about
40 years ago,
267
00:12:55,680 --> 00:12:58,160
before superhero movies
were popular,
268
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,880
which is why no-one in it
has heard of the Joker yet.
269
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:02,360
It's quite controversial.
270
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:06,960
Like, Joaquin Phoenix is totally
appropriating clown culture in it.
271
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,720
There's whole scenes where
he's in whiteface.
272
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,160
I mean, I know it was a different
time when they shot it,
273
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:16,680
in 1981, but he must be mortified
it's resurfaced now.
274
00:13:16,680 --> 00:13:19,440
He'll probably never get cast
in anything ever again.
275
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:23,120
TV HOST: The film contains "brutal
violence and overall bad vibes".
276
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:26,320
Even though it's a sort of
superhero film with a clown in it,
277
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,000
it's not for kids.
278
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,040
I mean, if I wanted my kids to watch
one man's painful descent
279
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,800
into total grinding despair,
280
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,320
I'd still be living at home.
281
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,920
Just before the film came out,
the news in America was
282
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:41,240
full of these concerned reports read
out by frowning, handsome
283
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,840
people, going on and on about how it
might inspire a massacre.
284
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,280
A bit like they secretly wanted
that to happen.
285
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,360
Tonight, amid concern that the new
Joker movie could be
286
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,160
used as an excuse
for a mass shooting...
287
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:54,600
To be fair, in America, you don't
288
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,000
have to go to the movies to see
a mass shooting anyway.
289
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:00,280
You can just look out the window
or go to a shopping mall
290
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:05,560
or a school or a church or a
restaurant or to your own workplace,
291
00:14:05,560 --> 00:14:08,320
or a nightclub, or an ice rink.
292
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,440
Actually, have they done one
in a ice rink yet?
293
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,760
You could just keep me
saying that in, anyway...
294
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,280
..because they will have by the time
this goes out.
295
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,600
The convicted sex offender
Jeffrey Epstein - once a friend
296
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,440
of presidents and British
royalty - is found dead
297
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,360
in his prison cell in New York.
298
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,520
Jeffrey Epstein was this
billionaire, who was into sex with
299
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,560
trafficked underage girls,
and he had lots of powerful
300
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,280
friends like Donald Trump
301
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,760
and Bill Clinton and Prince Andrew.
MASTERMIND THEME PLAYS
302
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:37,280
Anyway, this year, Epstein died
303
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,480
in a freak necktie accident
304
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,760
while one of his prison guards was
blinking for too long.
305
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,080
And his friendship with Prince
Andrew was on everyone's mind again,
306
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:50,200
so Andrew figured he should
go on TV and just draw
307
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:51,960
a line under the whole thing
308
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:53,920
with a great big highlighter pen.
309
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:57,680
It was like this one-off episode
of Mastermind, where his specialist
310
00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:02,040
subject was a dead paedophile,
and even though he knew loads about
311
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:05,480
the bloke, everyone seemed to think
he got a lot of the answers wrong.
312
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:08,400
You've been on his private plane?
Yes.
313
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,320
You've been to stay on his private
island? Yes.
314
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,160
You've stayed at his home
in Palm Beach? Yes.
315
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:15,720
BEEPING
316
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,240
It was a really clever format.
317
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:21,320
He had to think up hilarious alibis,
and Emily Maitlis had to
318
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,600
just try not to piss herself
or stand up and lamp him.
319
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,720
I was at home,
I was with the children,
320
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:32,600
I had taken Beatrice
to a PizzaExpress in Woking.
321
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,120
One of his alibis was that he had
322
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,400
been in a PizzaExpress in Woking
at the time,
323
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,840
which is fair enough, because I'm
sure that would be extremely
324
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:45,520
memorable to him. Maybe he had some
vouchers that were about to expire
325
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:48,520
that day. Although for it to be
really convincing,
326
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,480
he'd probably need to show us
some proof like the little menu
327
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,840
he coloured in
while he was there or something.
328
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:58,520
She described dancing with you...
No. ..and you profusely sweating
329
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:02,320
and that she went on to have
a bath, possibly...
330
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:07,040
There's a slight problem with
the sweating,
331
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:11,880
because I have a peculiar
medical condition,
332
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:13,560
which is that I don't sweat.
333
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,440
He said he wasn't
capable of sweating because he had
334
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,000
overdosed on adrenaline
when he had been shot at in a war.
335
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,120
A doctor said that wasn't possible.
336
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:25,080
But they don't know everything
about how the human body works.
337
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,040
I mean doctors still believe
in vaccines, and those have been
338
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,000
pretty thoroughly debunked by this
339
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:31,760
WhatsApp parents group I'm in.
340
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:33,320
Anyway, when the quiz was over,
341
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,680
he announced that he was
stepping down from public duties.
342
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,520
I mean, it's hard to even
conceive of a world without
343
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,320
Prince Andrew's contribution to it.
344
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,200
That's Britain fucked now.
345
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,800
The worst thing is, now we'll have
to hold a state funeral for
346
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:47,480
Prince Andrew's reputation.
347
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:49,640
And how much is that going to cost?
348
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:53,160
Incredibly, Prince Andrew's
interview was only the second most
349
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:56,600
catastrophic TV meltdown of the year
after Emmy-winning drama Chernobyl.
350
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,840
There was this show about a place
called "Cherno-ball",
351
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:03,680
about the sort of Russian factory
that went bang.
352
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:05,960
I don't know what they made there,
353
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:10,400
but I think it was bread because
they were all dressed like bakers
354
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:15,880
in a sort of big kitchen, worrying
about the dials on their big mixer.
355
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,720
You could see they were ashamed
that they had messed things up
356
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:23,080
so much because they kept really
blushing like they'd seen
357
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:26,400
what a mess they made and just gone
totally red with embarrassment.
358
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,560
To be fair, they probably didn't
know how the machines in the factory
359
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,480
were supposed to work
because all the manuals were printed
360
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,360
in Russian, which no-one can read.
361
00:17:37,360 --> 00:17:39,640
When the main bread machine
bit blew up,
362
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:43,200
it sent all this flour into the air
and loads of people who got
363
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:46,520
exposed to it had a wheat allergy,
so they got bad tummies...
364
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:49,960
..and came out in a sort
of nasty rash.
365
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,600
WAILING
366
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,280
It was a real scandal.
367
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:58,120
I hope Hovis were watching so this
kind of thing never happens again.
368
00:17:58,120 --> 00:18:00,440
The whole area went radioactive.
369
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,000
And the scary thing about
radioactivity is
370
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,480
it's dangerous
even though you can't see it.
371
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,280
Like when a paedophile
hides under a table.
372
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:11,400
First, the explosion makes all
the colour bleed out of the sky
373
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,800
so everything is grim
and depressing.
374
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,360
Then there's Trevor off EastEnders
stomping around with
375
00:18:16,360 --> 00:18:18,040
his bits all hanging out.
376
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,920
It was like, "All right, mate,
this is about a nuclear accident
377
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,440
"but does it have to be
such a downer?"
378
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:24,760
GUNSHOT
379
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,520
It turned into a zombie movie,
but they were the worst zombies
380
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:31,880
I've ever seen. They just kept lying
down and sort of crying.
381
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:33,520
Agh.
382
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:35,320
They didn't even bite each other.
383
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:39,200
What was clever was it explained
exactly how a nuclear reactor works.
384
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,840
With an RBMK reactor of the type
used at Chernobyl, there is
385
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:46,320
something called a positive
void coefficient.
386
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:51,160
Which is, it sort of has particles
in it and atoms
387
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,560
and they sort of rub together.
388
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:55,680
And then all the power comes out,
389
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:59,280
but if you turn the dial up too
much, everything explodes.
390
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:02,400
And I couldn't have told you
any of that before.
391
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:09,040
Throughout 2019, British politics
was in flux, with old certainties
392
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,080
getting shat through a bin-bag
left, right and centre.
393
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:16,160
At the start of 2019, there was this
sort of Theresa May woman,
394
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,360
who'd been Prime Minister by mistake
for almost three years.
395
00:19:19,360 --> 00:19:22,480
Some people thought Theresa May
looked awkward in her own skin,
396
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,280
but I'm not convinced
it was her own skin.
397
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,880
She had this sort of habit
of going...
398
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,360
..with her mouth, like a fish
that had just got hooked
399
00:19:30,360 --> 00:19:32,000
on a political problem.
400
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,640
Even when she was smiling, you could
see her face start thinking,
401
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,800
"I'm not sure about this,"
and then she'd start...
402
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,160
Like...all over the shop.
403
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,760
Anyway, her biggest problem was
she'd set herself the job of
404
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:45,400
delivering some sort of Brexit deal,
405
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,440
but no-one could agree
on what that was.
406
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,480
In fact, the only thing anyone
did agree on
407
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,640
was that she was
making the disagreements worse.
408
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,080
CHANTING: What do we want? Brexit!
409
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:54,280
When do we want it? Now!
410
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:55,600
Let's get out.
411
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,360
Let's have Brexit!
412
00:19:57,360 --> 00:20:00,000
Leavers kept saying Brexit was
the will of the people.
413
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,480
What I believe we must do is
deliver on the will of the people.
414
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,520
And the 48% who had voted Remain
weren't happy about that,
415
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:08,720
because they were people too.
416
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:12,160
But in a referendum,
the side that wins gets to decide
417
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:15,480
which way everyone else had really
wanted to vote in the first place,
418
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,480
and then add that to their score.
419
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:22,320
So once you factor that in, the
result goes from 52% to 100% Leave,
420
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,160
which is why
it's the will of the people.
421
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:25,600
And you can't argue with that.
422
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,440
Or even secretly disagree with it,
423
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,240
because it's your own will.
424
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:33,360
Anyway, the MPs kept trying to do
Brexit again, and again,
425
00:20:33,360 --> 00:20:36,600
and they couldn't quite shunt it
through the voting...hole,
426
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,400
or whatever it is they use.
427
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:40,920
MPs have rejected Theresa May's
withdrawal agreement
428
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:44,640
for a third time, throwing
the UK's Brexit strategy
429
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:45,920
into further confusion.
430
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:47,720
While all this was going on,
431
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:49,960
Corbyn still didn't know
how he felt about Brexit.
432
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,040
It was really difficult for him.
433
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:55,080
Even harder than trying to work out
what anti-Semitism is.
434
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:59,720
So he decided to appeal to Leavers
and Remainers by not saying anything
435
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:01,960
that might inspire either of them.
436
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,840
And when you're trying to unite
opposing sides like that,
437
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:08,280
the last thing you need is a bunch
of fucking centrists in your party,
438
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:09,800
getting in the way.
439
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:13,960
Some of his followers told them
to fuck off and join the Tories.
440
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:15,360
So they did -
441
00:21:15,360 --> 00:21:17,000
the obedient bastards.
442
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,040
Suddenly there was this group
called Change "uck",
443
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:24,320
who altered the face of British
politics for an entire afternoon.
444
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,760
By April, the whole thing
was in total shitlock.
445
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,600
So we had to hold
a European elections.
446
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:33,880
That's when Nigel Farage
invented the Brexit Party.
447
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,600
It's one of those no-nonsense
names that does what it says
448
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,960
on the tin - like that pile cream
called AnuSol.
449
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,360
Although that comes in a tube,
not a tin...
450
00:21:42,360 --> 00:21:44,240
..I expect.
451
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,760
When the votes were counted,
the Tories hadn't done great,
452
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,680
so Theresa had to Article 50
the shit out of herself.
453
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,560
She said she was going to quit,
454
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,400
and did a bye-bye speech where her
voice went a bit wobbly at the end.
455
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:59,000
To have had the opportunity...
to serve the country I love.
456
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:00,480
I felt a bit sorry for her,
457
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:04,040
because it shows she really was
capable of regular human emotions,
458
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:05,880
like self-pity and resentment.
459
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:09,640
Once Theresa May had gone, they had
a race to be the new Prime Minister
460
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:13,080
among all these young hopefuls
like Michael Glove,
461
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,920
and the first baby
to be Home Secretary,
462
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:19,160
and this sort of teeth bloke,
who looked like a cross
463
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,400
between Eddie Redmayne
and the Child Catcher.
464
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,640
But the frontrunner
was always Boris Johnson.
465
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:25,880
When you see him on the news
with his hair and his face,
466
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,720
looking like an overstuffed
scarecrow that's fallen in a trough
467
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,560
of pink-flavoured Angel Delight,
you think,
468
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,560
"Hang on, I'm going to absolutely
piss myself here."
469
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:36,200
Like a cartoon's just come on.
470
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:37,480
But instead of telling jokes,
471
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:39,840
he just sort of makes
posh buffering noises.
472
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:41,720
I'm cautiously optimistic.
473
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:45,400
How-how-how-what...
Is that a good enough, erm...?
474
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:50,040
Anyway, Boris won, so he had to
become Mayor of Britain for a bit.
475
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:51,880
The thing is,
the elite establishment
476
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:53,760
still kept trying to stop Brexit.
477
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:57,160
But, luckily, now there were
these everyday, underdog,
478
00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,560
honest men of the soil like Jacob
Rees-Mogg ready to take them on.
479
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:04,600
Boris had this genius bloke working
for him, Dominic Cumberbatch.
480
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,120
He used to work on the Leave
campaign, and they made
481
00:23:07,120 --> 00:23:10,880
a film about it where he was
played by his brother, Sherlock.
482
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:14,040
It really brought home
just how clever and bald he was.
483
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,440
Because he seemed
so clever in the film,
484
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:19,080
everyone assumed
he was clever in real life
485
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,600
and that everything he did was
part of a clever strategy.
486
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:25,800
Even if he blew off into his hand
and smelt it -
487
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,640
not that he did that,
but if he had
488
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,880
it would've been
for a clever reason.
489
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,120
Anyway, Boris kept trying to
make Brexit happen,
490
00:23:33,120 --> 00:23:35,560
but he couldn't manage it either,
even after he'd tricked the Queen
491
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,360
into turning Parliament
off and on again.
492
00:23:37,360 --> 00:23:40,360
So he gave this speech saying
he didn't want an election...
493
00:23:40,360 --> 00:23:43,240
I don't want an election. ..and that
no-one wanted an election.
494
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,040
You don't want an election.
495
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,080
And then he asked for an election.
496
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:48,880
As if that was going to work!
497
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:52,600
Tonight at ten, we're at
Westminster, where MPs have approved
498
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,760
the first December general election
since 1923.
499
00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,160
They hailed it as the election
of a lifetime -
500
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,120
a couple of years after
the other one they called
501
00:24:01,120 --> 00:24:02,560
an election of a lifetime.
502
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,440
Which means they're probably not
talking about a human lifetime,
503
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:07,520
but a mealworm or
something like that,
504
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:10,680
which is stupid because everyone
knows mealworms can't vote.
505
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,520
They can't hold a pencil.
506
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:16,000
Early on, Corbyn and Johnson had
to go on this sort of game show
507
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:19,440
where Boris had to mention
Brexit as often as possible,
508
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,080
and Jeremy had to pretend
he hadn't heard him.
509
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,800
Neither of them looked very
statesman-like.
510
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:29,080
Corbyn had these off-putting
glasses, and Johnson was like
511
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,600
a failed reboot of the Honey Monster
making a court appearance.
512
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,760
It was like a Mock The Week special
where they kept getting laughs
513
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,240
with their material,
but by accident.
514
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:41,760
Does the truth matter in
this election?
515
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:43,200
I think it does. And I think...
516
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,600
LAUGHTER FROM AUDIENCE
..and I think it very important.
517
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,360
While the debate was on, the Tories
changed their Twitter name
518
00:24:48,360 --> 00:24:51,400
to "factcheckUK", so they looked
like an independent
519
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:52,920
fact-checking service.
520
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,320
They got shit for that
but, to be fair,
521
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,400
it only fooled everyone who saw it.
522
00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,640
The Tories had this simple slogan
they kept saying over
523
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:00,640
and over again...
524
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:01,680
Get Brexit done.
525
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:02,880
Get Brexit done.
526
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:04,120
Get Brexit done!
527
00:25:04,120 --> 00:25:06,160
..which meant you knew who
to vote for if you wanted
528
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:07,560
to get Brexit gone.
529
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:11,600
People said Jeremy Corbyn's Brexit
position was hard to understand,
530
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:14,440
just cos it couldn't be summed up
in a snappy sound bite
531
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:15,680
or a short book.
532
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,520
But it was really simple.
533
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:21,200
He said he'd negotiate a new deal
then put that to the public
534
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,480
in a referendum,
which he'd be neutral about.
535
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,640
Then he'd subtract the deal
you've first thought of,
536
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:29,240
fold the result in half
537
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,360
and multiply it by the Jews.
538
00:25:31,360 --> 00:25:33,000
What's the problem?
539
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:36,080
There were lots of people
talking about tactical voting.
540
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,440
To vote tactically, you had to
ignore who you wanted to vote for
541
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:44,320
and instead vote Lib Dem, which
is short for the Liberal Dems.
542
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:47,360
They're this sort of middle
filler party that used to be run by
543
00:25:47,360 --> 00:25:49,840
the world's oldest Doctor Who,
Winch Cable, until
544
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:53,640
he regenerated into this Girl Guide
leader called Jo from Swindon.
545
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,400
The Tories had the right-wing
press on their side,
546
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,720
but Jeremy Corbyn had Momentum
behind him,
547
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:00,320
which was ironic.
548
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,880
Then the Chief Rabbi said the
Labour Party had a serious problem
549
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,680
with anti-cementism, and
the next day Corbyn was interviewed
550
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,760
by Andrew Neil, and he didn't
say sorry once.
551
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:11,920
Or twice.
552
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:13,360
Or at all.
553
00:26:13,360 --> 00:26:16,040
Boris Johnson was supposed to be
interviewed too,
554
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,480
but when he saw what Andrew Neil
had done to Corbyn,
555
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,840
he must've shat his own
arse up his back,
556
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:23,920
because suddenly he was too busy
doing other things.
557
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:25,560
Boris avoided everyone.
558
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,800
He dodged Jeremy Vine in
the big Channel 4 weather chat,
559
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,840
and when Good Morning Britain
asked him to speak to Piers Morgan,
560
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:35,040
he was so desperate to get away
he hid in a big fridge...
561
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:36,720
He's been taken inside,
into the freezer.
562
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,360
You've gone into the fridge.
Excuse me.
563
00:26:38,360 --> 00:26:41,400
..which is the most relatable
thing he's ever done.
564
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:45,280
To be fair, he was being furiously
held to account by the press -
565
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:48,000
you only had to glance at
the front pages to see that.
566
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,720
And he was brave enough to
appear on This Morning, which is
567
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,160
a notoriously hostile environment.
568
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:54,720
For Amanda Holden.
569
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:58,160
One morning, a reporter tracked
Boris down and asked him
570
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,720
to look at this shocking photo of
a boy sleeping on a hospital floor.
571
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:05,080
But when confronted with this image
by an ITV reporter today,
572
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,560
the Prime Minister at first refused
to even look at it.
573
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,560
It's not fair to expect Boris to
focus on an interview with
574
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,640
a suffering child directly in
his field of vision.
575
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,600
He might be overcome with emotion
and just start laughing.
576
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:21,400
So he did the decent thing and
nicked the reporter's phone.
577
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:24,560
Anyway, in the last few days
the polls tightened,
578
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,520
and Labour and the Tories were
neck and neck.
579
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,520
Apart from the huge gap
between them.
580
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,200
Boris Johnson leads the
Conservatives to a resounding
581
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:35,880
election victory.
582
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:37,960
When the result came in,
it was a landslide.
583
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,680
The Tories won seats in places
they'd never even heard of
584
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:42,520
and probably hadn't even stood in.
585
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,960
It was clear everyone
in Great Britain had voted Tory -
586
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,240
unless you count Scotland,
587
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,680
which we probably won't have to
much longer.
588
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,080
People said Corbyn couldn't win
an election if he tried,
589
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,640
which wasn't completely fair,
590
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,000
because it turned out he couldn't
win two elections if he tried.
591
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:03,760
I will not lead the party in any
future general election campaign.
592
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:05,720
Corbyn said he'll step down
next year.
593
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:07,880
He'll probably go back
to his allotment,
594
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,520
and alienate some sprouts.
595
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,760
Then Boris stood outside his palace
and said he wanted
596
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:17,280
everyone in Britain to forget their
differences and come together -
597
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,280
be they Leaver or Remainer,
598
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,320
letterbox or bumboy.
599
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:27,760
I urge everyone to find closure
and to let the healing begin.
600
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:32,080
It's a lot of power for someone like
him, but I'm sure it'll be fine.
601
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:34,120
He'll probably look after us
602
00:28:34,120 --> 00:28:36,120
like we were his own children.
