00:00U.S.A! U.S.A! U.S.A!
00:03And stars from Britain.
00:05Hello.
00:08Let's start the show!
00:25Oh! Oh! Oh!
00:28Too proud! Thank you very much!
00:30Thank you! Thank you!
00:32It's very nice of you!
00:34Welcome one! Welcome all!
00:36Yes, it is a packed program tonight.
00:38Not just those four stars.
00:40Later in the show, we'll be joined by Sir David Attenborough, ladies and gentlemen.
00:44Yes!
00:48Sir David!
00:50There's Sir David there.
00:52Just securing his two-for-one cinema tickets.
00:54What's happened to those animals? It's so good!
01:00Everyone loved the series Life on Earth, where David met gorillas in their natural habitat.
01:05Now, gorillas are expert communicators, and apparently they had a subtle way of letting David know
01:10when they'd had enough of being filmed.
01:14We hear you! Let's get some guests on!
01:18Later, we'll have music from Hot American Export, El King!
01:23But first, as Dr. House MD, he was the most watched star in the world.

01:32It's Hugh Laurie, everybody!

02:04He joined the co-star.
02:05Hello!
02:06Oh!
02:07Right, he's the most successful stand-up comedian in America, and a fully-fledged movie star.

02:35Straight out of Compton, it's Ice Cube!
02:38It is Ice Cube!
02:40Nice to see you!
02:41Nice to see you!
02:42Nice to see you!
02:43Nice to see you!
02:44Nice to see you!

02:51Everyone good?
02:52Woo!
02:53Thank you!
02:54Yay!
02:55Yay!
02:56Now, the weird thing is, Ice Cube, we could be related.
02:59Because, um, apparently, apparently, there's some Irish stock in your past.
03:05No!
03:06It's not like-
03:07I mean, it could be!
03:08You never know!
03:09No!
03:10Isn't it, but you have an Irish name!
03:11Do I?
03:12It's no shade!
03:13Oh, shade is an Irish name!
03:14It couldn't be more Irish!
03:15It's not right!
03:16No one told you that till now!
03:17No!
03:18I've been told!
03:19No, I've been told, but, you know, I think my mother just liked the name.
03:25Okay, because it's your Christian.
03:27It's my, yeah, I think.
03:29Listen, Brian, let me educate you on something.
03:32Black people, black people are notorious for picking things that they saw one day and say,
03:36that's my baby name.
03:39That's all that was.
03:40That's all that was.
03:41There was no amazing story behind it.
03:45People would love to tell you, yes, it actually came from an Irish forefather that did this.
03:50That's not the case.
03:51My mother was reading the paper and she was eating some cereal.
03:55And somebody in the back said, oh, Shay.
03:56She said, that'd be a good name.
03:59And that's it.
04:00That's all.
04:02But now, here's the thing.
04:06You are here promoting your movie, but, Kevin, you're working at the same time.
04:09You're doing stand-up gigs.
04:10Double dipping.
04:11Yes.
04:12Double dipping.
04:13Doing a ton of stand-up shows.
04:15My What Now tour is here as well.
04:18Major thank you to the UK fans.
04:20The tour sold out in, like, literally two days.
04:23So you guys are amazing way back when.
04:25Wow.
04:26Yeah.
04:27So we did that.
04:29And then after that, we came over here for promo.
04:32What Cuba and myself love doing is really getting involved with the fans.
04:37You know, we love putting our feet in the street and really being active and interacting.
04:41So we've been doing a ton of pop-ups and just delivering the movie, the best of our ability,
04:45which is live and in person.
04:46And we're splitting all the tour money.
04:48That is not true.
04:50Because you got him here.
04:51You got him here.
04:52And then I'm here.
04:53Yeah.
04:53That's not true.
04:54You know he bum-rushed my stage the other day.
04:56Oh, did he?
04:57And I'm telling him, he tackled me from the back, scared to live the mess out of me.
05:00It was one of the most frightening moments of my life, to be honest with you.
05:03I think we might have another frightening moment for you.
05:05This is you in Manchester.
05:07Now, do you even know the name of that show?
05:10Oh, yeah.
05:12Yeah.
05:12Yeah, I do.
05:13What's it called?
05:14I'm the only black guy there that day.
05:17Yes.
05:17Forever.
05:18Forever.
05:20That's Coronation Street.
05:21Well done.
05:25That's you in Beverly Calford.
05:26But this picture, this looks like you've been photoshopped in.
05:30Yeah.
05:32Are you really there?
05:33No.
05:34Roy's roles can't be that big.
05:36First of all, it looks like I grew up there.
05:44Olivia, with Fraud Church, presumably your kind of level of recognition has gone up.
05:49You must get recognized all the time now.
05:51Yes.
05:52Yes, I do.
05:52Oh, I know where you're going, yes.
05:54Yes.
05:54Well, that, do tell them.
05:57I hope my mum's not watching.
06:00There was a slight road rage incident.
06:02And you know those crossings where they're absolutely, I don't know if it's the same rules apply, but they're not staggered, they're straight crossroad thing.
06:12Do you know what I mean?
06:13I mean, you're turning right.
06:14I have no idea what you're talking about, but keep going.
06:16So if you turn right, you have to turn in front of each other, not behind each other on a staggered crossing.
06:20Do you know what I mean?
06:21No.
06:21Does anyone know what I mean?
06:23Who's the winner?
06:24So, so, so, no, don't.
06:25Basically, here.
06:27Okay, and you've got to go behind each other.
06:29No, you've got to go in front of each other.
06:30That's right, no, but I had to go in front because it was a, it was a equal thing.
06:31You had to go in front of each other.
06:32Yes.
06:33Yes.
06:33Okay.
06:33So this woman was coming towards me and wanting to go right, her right, and I was going right.
06:37So I, I turned to go in front of her and she went, and as if I had tried to drive into her.
06:42And I thought, okay, well, there's no one else coming, so I'll just, to keep her happy, I'll do what's wrong, but I'll go behind her.
06:48And she was, uh, doing that in the, in the car.
06:51And it was starting to really piss me off because I was right, and I was helping her out.
06:56And then I suddenly got this red mist.
06:58Just as our cars were coming next to each other, I suddenly went, fuck you.
07:04And just as she was doing that, she went, ah.
07:16And now, you, Laurie, straight out of Oxford, you, uh, who?
07:21You have had some rap experience.
07:27I think you, I'm, you may have been misinformed there.
07:30I don't know, I've got evidence.
07:31Well, well, now, well, now.
07:34Have you started?
07:36Yes.
07:37Yeah, that's the opening line.
07:39Why don't we take it from there?
07:40Well, now.
07:41It's called, well, now.
07:42Um, I, we're, I dabbled.
07:45Yes, it was you and Stephen Fry.
07:46Yeah.
07:47And what was it actually called?
07:47It was called, it was called, I'm a good-ass mother liker.
07:55Okay.
07:55You see, we, we, you see, we.
07:56Yes, it was, it was nice, polite rap.
07:59It was polite English rap.
08:00We've got a little clip.
08:01Oh, no.
08:02Just so you can enjoy it.
08:03Oh, no, you haven't.
08:04Yes, here's you, Laurie, doing his polite rap.
08:06Oh, my God.
08:06Get home to my bitch.
08:07You be waiting all alone.
08:09I'm just walking in a hole.
08:10I'm gonna give her a bottle.
08:11Make yourself a bottle.
08:12No.
08:13No.
08:13No.
08:14No.
08:14No.
08:15No.
08:15No.
08:16No.
08:18Be nice.
08:20Because I'm a good-ass mother liker.
08:26There we go.
08:31Everything was hot.
08:33Everything was hot except the pants.
08:35No, no, no, yeah.
08:36The pants was hot.
08:38Everything else was great.
08:40First of all, it was 1995.
08:42In the camera.
08:43I mean, your swag is on a thousand right now.
08:47Now, the guys are here because they've got the sequel to Ride Along entitled Ride Along 2.
08:55Yes.
08:56Good job, Graham.
08:57You nailed that.
08:58You nailed that.
08:59I've got the facts, ladies and gentlemen.
09:02Now, it opens here tonight, but, of course, it's already open in America.
09:05Huge hit, knocked Star Wars off the top of the tree, all that.
09:09So, what is the premise of the movie?
09:11The premise of the movie, I play a crack detective out of Atlanta.
09:16And I have this bug, mosquito, by the name of Kevin Hart.
09:22That's not, that's not, that's not.
09:25He wants to marry my sister.
09:27So, you know, it's the whole thing of, you always hate the guy that wants to marry your sister.
09:32So, you know, I hate him over here.
09:35That's a strong word.
09:35You dislike me.
09:37I'm trying to scare him from not being a cop by taking him on a ride along.
09:43And it doesn't work because he ends up helping me solve the case.
09:47Yeah.
09:48There's a lot of stuff that happens on that ride.
09:50I mean, you're looking at a relationship with two guys.
09:52That's a, that's a grounded, genuine relationship.
09:55You know, my character, Ben Barber, inspires to be what James is.
09:59And what means the most to me is this man's approval.
10:01But getting that approval is tough.
10:03So, along this road, it's about me proving myself above and beyond
10:07and eventually getting the attention of the guy that I look up to.
10:09And reading interviews between you, it's unclear.
10:11Like, do you get on, on set?
10:14Or is it, do you genuinely kind of annoy each other?
10:17What's my best friend?
10:17Okay.
10:18Say it.
10:21Say it.
10:22Come on, man.
10:23Say it.
10:24We're in the UK.
10:25Say it.
10:25Let them know how you feel.
10:27Best friend touch.
10:27Come on, man.
10:30Come on, man.
10:31There it is.
10:33My best friend.
10:37But didn't he steal your catchphrase?
10:39He always steals everything.
10:41You know, my, when people see me, they'd be like, yo, Q.
10:44Yeah, yeah.
10:44Hey, hey.
10:48Good, good.
10:48I'm not going to say that.
10:50So, I'll say, hey, Q.
10:52Yeah, yeah.
10:52Hey, hey.
10:54That's so weak.
10:55It has no flavor to it.
10:58We're best friends.
11:02We've got a clip for the movie.
11:04Right along to you.
11:05This is, you guys, trying to get into a party undercover.
11:08Ah.
11:09And your antagonism is, is barely concealed.
11:12Prince Admiral Stephen Matumbe.
11:14Nigerian consul.
11:16Plus two.
11:18My two servants.
11:19I don't have you on the list.
11:21Could you check the VIP list?
11:23And do not look me in my eye.
11:25Don't look at me.
11:26You look at the pod.
11:28You read the names.
11:29And you look at me and you close your eyes.
11:30Look at me.
11:31Don't look at me.
11:32Look at me.
11:33That was a test.
11:34You felt you were well.
11:37Earned on it.
11:37All right, stall him, guys.
11:39AJ's on it.
11:40Step aside.
11:41Por favor.
11:42Wait!
11:45This is all your fault.
11:46I'm your bodyguard.
11:48Not your servant.
11:49Hey!
11:52You are what I say you are!
11:55Oh, God.
11:56Oh.
11:56Traditional.
11:57Sign of respect.
12:00Okay, try it now.
12:01Check the list one more time.
12:02There it is.
12:07Sorry about that, Chiquitito.
12:08Headed right in.
12:09I cannot feel my face.
12:18And, Isaac, we've got to mention,
12:20Straight Outta Compton.
12:21Congratulations, Oscar-nominated.
12:26Oscar-nominated, best original screenplay.
12:28Yes.
12:29And, obviously, because the Oscars have now got mired
12:31in this controversy this year.
12:32So, where do you stand on all of that?
12:35Like, where do you go?
12:36Are you going?
12:37I never used to go anyway.
12:40You're not boycotting.
12:41You can't boycott something that you never went to anyway.
12:45That's kind of weird.
12:46No, you know, it's, uh, I look at it as, uh, you know, like a horse race.
12:51You know what I'm saying?
12:51Once your horse loses a race, you tear up your ticket and go on and just back on out,
12:58you know, because it's nothing really to put that much energy into like that.
13:03It's, uh, we don't do movies for the industry.
13:07We do movies for the fans, for the people.
13:10And, uh, you know, the industry, you know, if they give you a trophy or not,
13:14or pat you on the back or not, it's nice, but it's not, uh, something that you should dwell on.
13:19You know, we got accolades from all levels, you know, from our core fans, from our curious fans,
13:26from our fans or people who, you know, didn't even think they wanted to see that movie.
13:31You know, I think an older generation got an understanding on why we did that kind of music
13:37and a younger generation got a history lesson and we got so much praise for the movie.
13:43And it's like, how could you be mad because one other academy or guild or anybody didn't say it's the number one?
13:52You know, it's like, you know, it's crying about, you know, not having enough icing on your cake.
13:58You know what I mean? It's just ridiculous.
14:00Because you guys have both seen the movie, haven't you?
14:01Yeah. Yeah, I loved it. Absolutely loved it.
14:04And I think, by the way, that that's about the sanest description of this whole process of awards that I've ever heard.
14:10I mean, as a way of treating it, as a way of thinking about it, I think it's impossible.
14:19And what's the process of the making of the film?
14:21Did it kind of rebuild Bridges with the existing members of NWA?
14:25Are you all kind of good and...
14:27Yeah, we were already cool, you know.
14:29It was water under the bridge by the time we started doing the movie.
14:33And it was great to get with everybody and hash up all those stories and...
14:37No, that's not how it happened. Yeah, yeah.
14:39And then going back and forth and creating the whole, you know, script.
14:45It was a load of work. It was a major process.
14:48A lot of cooks in the kitchen.
14:51But we got a nice meal out of it.
14:53But you're getting back together, is that right?
14:54Are you going to play Coachella?
14:57Well, we're going to definitely play the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame because NWA was inducted.
15:01And now...
15:03So that's great.
15:09And then, you know, I got Coachella.
15:11I'm going to try to get all the guys together and do an amazing show.
15:14I'll do it.
15:14I'll do it.
15:19So you don't even have to ask.
15:20I'll do it.
15:21And he's not joking, is he?
15:24Yeah, for my friend.
15:26I do.
15:27And great and sort of extraordinary that your son did such an amazing job playing you.
15:32I mean, that's what I'm most proud of.
15:34You know, more than having this movie, having Stratton Compton, this, that, and the other,
15:39is the fact that my son was able to take an opportunity and run with it
15:44and hopefully set himself up in, you know, one of the greatest industries in the world.
15:50And, you know, I'm so proud just as a father.
15:54And, oh, yeah, you know, it was a movie about NWA, too.
15:57You know, that.
15:58But also, like, how much did he know, like, when he was doing scenes,
16:02was he going to, like, you did this, Dad?
16:04Yeah, yeah, yeah.
16:05In the hotel rooms, you know, some of them scenes.
16:09He's like, man, y'all took guns?
16:15Man, y'all was doing the most.
16:18Yeah, those were your favorite scenes, too.
16:21But he did know it.
16:23I mean, because how old was he when he knew the lyrics to Straight Outta Compton?
16:26Oh, they was young, man.
16:27You know, my kids is two, three years old.
16:31I mean, he was playing all the time.
16:33And, you know, they would rap it and censor theyself, you know,
16:36just, they would, like, rap the lyrics,
16:38Straight Outta Compton, Crazy M-Name Ice Cube from the-
16:41We didn't have to.
16:43Not all the profanity, you know what I mean?
16:46So, it's just funny.
16:47And now, you, Laurie, you've got kids,
16:49but none of them have followed in your footsteps, don't you?
16:52No.
16:52No, they haven't.
16:59I mean, they all did a bit.
17:01They have proper jobs, yeah.
17:03They all did a bit.
17:04They all tried it.
17:05And were good at it, actually, I thought.
17:07But didn't want to, um...
17:08I just think it's an amazing thing to think of your son doing this,
17:12because I, you know, most men are, in some version,
17:16are trying to play their father anyway.
17:19You know, either imaginary or real,
17:21they're trying to sort of play the role of their father
17:24until they find out, you know, if they ever do.
17:27Some don't if they ever find out who they are.
17:29I think that's just an incredible thing.
17:32I mean, I had a very...
17:33This is a very, very sort of mild version of it,
17:36because I was playing...
17:38I spent almost ten years playing a doctor,
17:40and my father was a doctor,
17:42and I felt like I was a fake version of what he really was,
17:46and I felt always sort of constantly guilty about that.
17:50Because I think a lot of men do actually grow up feeling like that,
17:54feeling like fake versions of their own...
17:56And until you hopefully get to a point where you can think,
17:59well, I am the real thing, in some form.
18:02You know, whatever it is, it's real.
18:04Because Olivia, how many kids have you got now?
18:06Three.
18:06Three?
18:07So if one of them, or indeed all of them,
18:09came to you and said,
18:10yay, we're going to be an actor or actress,
18:12would you be thrilled, horrified?
18:14I don't know.
18:15It's a quite hard thing to answer,
18:16because I love it.
18:17I love my job, but I know I've been lucky.
18:20So it'd be quite hard for my kids to go into it
18:22and be less lucky, or...
18:23Yes.
18:24So...
18:24You wouldn't say, I'd like you to be a successful actor.
18:26Yeah.
18:28You'd teach them to be a successful actor.
18:29You'd be lucky.
18:30But they're also very clever.
18:32They're much cleverer than me.
18:32So, well, it's hard to know with the baby, but then...
18:35LAUGHTER
18:36LAUGHTER
18:37It doesn't walk into walls or anything.
18:40That's good, yeah.
18:41Good, good.
18:42Yeah, I'd like to think maybe they'll do something,
18:44you know, save people or change the world.
18:46Oh, wow.
18:47No pressure.
18:47LAUGHTER
18:48LAUGHTER
18:49And, Kevin, to your kids,
18:52do they aspire to be a performer like you?
18:53Oh, yeah, I'm in trouble.
18:55My kids are just like me.
18:58They're cut.
18:59It's scary.
19:00It's so scary.
19:00Now, my son...
19:01My son is a little slower.
19:03My daughter is just like me.
19:05LAUGHTER
19:05I can't.
19:07It's my son.
19:08I catch my son...
19:09I catch my son doing some of the stupid stuff.
19:12It's like, why are you licking that wall?
19:14LAUGHTER
19:14Lick the wall, boy.
19:17I'm just playing.
19:19No, you're not playing licking the wall, son.
19:21Just go over there and just play with that stuff.
19:24My daughter is just...
19:25She's in love with what I do.
19:28She fully gets it.
19:29My daughter is 10 years old.
19:32And, you know, I'm big on letting my kids see me
19:36in my work environment,
19:38whether it's on set, whether it's on stage, tour.
19:41I let them be around their dad
19:42so they can really understand what I do.
19:45My daughter sits...
19:47Like, when I'm on stage, I don't let them...
19:49They only allow me to watch the first 7 to 10 minutes
19:51of my show, because that part's clean.
19:53Then it gets...
19:54Then it gets filthy after that stuff.
19:56So the first 10 minutes, she just sits and she watches
19:59and she mimics me in the house.
20:01Like, my daughter's got a tight five minutes.
20:03Like, she's got a tight five, right?
20:06She's like, Dad, introduce me.
20:07Like, she's got bits.
20:08She's got my mannerisms.
20:10She comes on stage.
20:11She's like, what do you do?
20:12What's your job?
20:13What's your name?
20:13LAUGHTER
20:14It's just scary.
20:16It's really scary.
20:17So Ice Cube had his son in his movie.
20:21Olivia Colman has gone one further, ladies and gentlemen,
20:24because in her new show, she had her daughter in her
20:28in the things like Russian dolls.
20:30LAUGHTER
20:31And your mum...
20:33And your mum plays a role in...
20:36This is the night manager, the new series that you got in.
20:38Oh, in her.
20:39Oh, in her.
20:39Oh, in her.
20:39Oh.
20:40LAUGHTER
20:40Where were you going?
20:41I don't know.
20:42I was going somewhere in the dark.
20:44You guys nodding, going, OK.
20:45OK, all right.
20:46LAUGHTER
20:47The UK thing.
20:48All right.
20:48LAUGHTER
20:49I got it.
20:50I got it.
20:51But they...
20:52They wrote the bump in.
20:54Yeah.
20:54When I first went to meet the director,
20:56and I just found out I was pregnant,
20:58and I said, well, I can't lie.
20:59It's going to become obvious.
21:00And so I said I was pregnant.
21:02And Susanna went, oh.
21:04Mm, OK.
21:05So she said, I must talk to...
21:08Talk to the producers.
21:09And so, this is my impressionist is Alan.
21:11Yes.
21:12LAUGHTER
21:12It's lucky she's not here,
21:15because then I can tell you it's really good.
21:16OK.
21:17It is.
21:17It's absolutely...
21:18Hold on.
21:19Yeah.
21:19And then, and I was going, and, um,
21:21if you remember Fargo,
21:22Francis McDormand was pregnant,
21:23and it really added to it,
21:24I think it would help.
21:25Sort of, fingers crossed.
21:26And they went away and came back and said,
21:28yeah, OK, we can do pregnant, yeah.
21:30Uh, yeah, we're riding in, so.
21:32And I was going, did you even have to carry a bag
21:34in front of yourself, or a baggy coat?
21:36It got so big, there was, there would have been no hiding it.
21:38LAUGHTER
21:39And then, and, uh, also I was waddling quite a lot.
21:41And Susanna once said,
21:43could you, uh, could you walk less pregnant?
21:44LAUGHTER
21:45LAUGHTER
21:46My pelvis is like that one.
21:51So, this is, uh, the Night Manager,
21:53uh, coming out on BBC One next month.
21:55See that?
21:56I look like someone, like a...
21:58I've snuck into the back of shot.
22:00LAUGHTER
22:01LAUGHTER
22:02It's really, it's a...
22:03It's like a model shoot.
22:05It's like, it's like when they left the paper cups
22:09on the mantelpiece in Downton.
22:11LAUGHTER
22:12She looked like she's back there fixing her suit.
22:15LAUGHTER
22:16Like a wardrobe person, like...
22:18Exactly!
22:19I was putting a moment in it, and she didn't say it,
22:21but when she said it, I was like...
22:23It's pretty good, isn't it?
22:23It's kind of, I was like...
22:24LAUGHTER
22:25And if anyone's watching in America, by the way,
22:28it's also on there, it's on, uh, BBC America and, uh, AMC.
22:32And I guess because of all that involvement,
22:33it looks amazing.
22:34It's got this huge budget, it looks like, for a TV show.
22:37Yes.
22:38Yes.
22:38It's extraordinary.
22:38Americans do know how to make things look very good.
22:40Yeah.
22:40LAUGHTER
22:41I'm excited.
22:41And, uh, obviously, it's the famous John le Carre novel,
22:44but if people don't know, what can you tell us about it?
22:46Who do you play within the film?
22:47I play, I'm proud to say, the worst man in the world.
22:52Ooh!
22:53We actually play sworn enemies.
22:54This is a sort of the angel of vengeance,
22:57and I am the worst man in the world, and we, uh...
23:00Let's say that, because there are no other actors here,
23:02let's say it's all about us.
23:03OK.
23:03LAUGHTER
23:04We wind up in, right at the end of the thing,
23:08in a sort of final confrontation between really good and evil.
23:14Um, it's about arms dealing, it's about, uh, a conspiracy
23:18to pull off a very terrible arms deal with very terrible people.
23:23And, uh, Olivia's character is...
23:25sets about trying to undo the villain of the piece,
23:28the worst man in the world, which is me.
23:29And why was...
23:30Because it's been changed.
23:32It wasn't a woman originally.
23:34Yes, no, that's right.
23:34My character, Burr, was a man,
23:36and they thought they'd like to...
23:39Burr would be a good person to turn into a woman.
23:41I think you'd probably work there more than me in that discussion.
23:44I was a horse, my character.
23:46LAUGHTER
23:47We could have a talking horse,
23:50or why don't we have a person?
23:52LAUGHTER
23:53There never are enough.
23:55LAUGHTER
23:56But, no, but...
23:58But, you, Laurie, you love this book.
24:00I... I love...
24:00Well, Le Carre is...
24:01This is holy text for me.
24:04Um...
24:04And I loved, uh...
24:06And you know him, right?
24:07Well...
24:09Yes, I would like to say now.
24:11I do, a little bit.
24:12I think he...
24:12I don't think he'd blank me in the street.
24:14But when you were at his party...
24:15His birthday party?
24:15I did.
24:16I got taken.
24:17I was as...
24:18I didn't.
24:18I got taken as Stephen...
24:19LAUGHTER
24:20As Stephen Fry's date, uh...
24:22Um...
24:24To his 70th birthday party
24:25at a restaurant in Hampstead.
24:27And at this party were...
24:29I don't quite know who these people were,
24:31because you're not supposed to know anyway,
24:33but there was something like
24:34the head of the CIA
24:35and the head of the KGB
24:36were at this dinner.
24:39Big, big cheeses anyway.
24:40And the place was crawling with bodyguards
24:42and there was a lot of earpieces
24:43and people were packing.
24:45Yeah.
24:46And...
24:46LAUGHTER
24:46Yeah.
24:48Was this a captain?
24:49Yeah, all right, all right?
24:50Yeah, yeah, yeah.
24:50Was this a captain?
24:51I think I know that spot.
24:54I have the lingo.
24:55LAUGHTER
24:56LAUGHTER
24:57APPLAUSE
24:58APPLAUSE
25:00During the dinner,
25:04one of his sons sort of went whispering
25:07around the table.
25:08There was a piano in the room
25:09and he went whispering around the table.
25:11He said,
25:11does anybody know how to play Happy Birthday?
25:13And I said,
25:13well, if no one else will...
25:14Yeah, I'll do it if you want.
25:16So they said, OK.
25:17You sneak over to the piano.
25:19No one's looking.
25:19You sneak over to the piano,
25:20sit down there.
25:21We'll signal the kitchen.
25:22They'll light the candles on the cake
25:24and then they'll bring it in
25:25and you start playing.
25:26I said, OK.
25:27So I sort of snuck over,
25:28I sat down and I lifted the lid like this
25:30and I was all poised
25:30and I could see the kitchen
25:32where they were lighting the...
25:33I could see them fussing over the cake
25:35and they lit the candles,
25:3770 of them,
25:38so I'll shorten that bit.
25:39LAUGHTER
25:39And then the last thing they did,
25:43because obviously this was the restaurant's habit,
25:45the last thing they did
25:46before they brought out the cake
25:47was switch off the lights.
25:48Oh.
25:49So the place went dark
25:50and there was just an eruption
25:53of guns and walkie-talkies.
25:55LAUGHTER
25:56Everybody moved,
25:57everybody on the floor
25:58and I had a son of my...
25:59LAUGHTER
25:59No, really.
26:01Honestly, I am literally
26:02just the piano player.
26:03LAUGHTER
26:03LAUGHTER
26:04But order was restored,
26:06nobody died.
26:07LAUGHTER
26:08It was an exciting moment.
26:10But it also shows you the respect
26:12in which Le Carre is held
26:14in the world of spying
26:15and, you know, intelligence.
26:16We've got a clip,
26:17but it's more of a taster
26:18of the whole series.
26:20So, here it is.
26:21LAUGHTER
26:22War is spectator sport.
26:28What do you want, Miss Bird?
26:30I want to make you an offer.
26:31Bring down Richard Roper.
26:33I want to put you inside his operation.
26:35You'll be in so deep,
26:36you'll worry that you'll never get out.
26:38My name's Pine.
26:39I'm the night manager.
26:40I think you might be playing both sides.
26:42We need Richard Roper.
26:46I'm going to get you out of here.
26:48And you think you're safe?
26:49We're pulling you out.
26:50We haven't really had an operation.
26:52If you step out of line,
26:54it will make you howl for your mother.
27:05Ooh.
27:06CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
27:08You could've watched that.
27:10Yeah, I could've watched that.
27:11What have you? Yes.
27:14You're in there.
27:15Oh, look at the people.
27:15I know it.
27:16The last time she was promoting a film,
27:18she didn't know who she was playing in the film.
27:21It was finished.
27:23It was in the cinema.
27:24It was a long time after we'd formed it.
27:27You might have checked before you came on a chat show.
27:31I don't know how honest she is about it.
27:33I have no idea.
27:35I don't know.
27:36I'm just going to smile.
27:37I love it.
27:37I don't know why this thing,
27:38also because contractually,
27:40no offence,
27:40but we were sort of asked to come and...
27:41All right, fine.
27:42I love you too.
27:43No, no, no.
27:44Wow.
27:45She doesn't mean that.
27:49I don't mean that.
27:50I don't...
27:50Oh, my God.
27:51You see, why...
27:52She doesn't want to be here then.
27:54No, no, no.
27:55That's not true.
27:55I love Graham.
27:57But I do wonder why they asked me to do it.
28:01I don't help, do I?
28:02You...
28:03I keep thinking she's never been one of my films.
28:10She's good.
28:13I like her.
28:15I like her.
28:17Thank you very much.
28:17I like you.
28:22All right.
28:23On to my next guest.
28:25He's been on our screens for 65 years.
28:29And now, on the eve of his 90th birthday,
28:31he's back at the beam with a new natural history special.
28:35Please welcome broadcasting legend,
28:37Sir David Attenborough.
28:38Hello, sir.
28:44How are you?
28:45So nice to see you.
28:46Come in, sit down.
28:48He's out of school.
28:49Come in, come in.
28:50I don't want to let me, I'm sure.
28:56Oh, thank you.
28:59Thank you, everybody.
29:01Thank you, everybody.
29:02Oh.
29:03Very nice to have you.
29:07Thank you very much for joining us.
29:09You've all...
29:10You've said hello, you've met everybody.
29:11I've been listening to you all.
29:12I've been listening to you all.
29:12I've been laughing like anything.
29:15You've met before, have you, Olivia?
29:17Twice.
29:19Oh, I'm so embarrassed that I...
29:21Um, I was so excited to meet you.
29:24Well, I didn't mean meet you, I just sort of stumbled into you and went,
29:26No, I think you're amazing.
29:29And we were very polite, and then I realised I should leave,
29:31and then I did it a second time.
29:34At a different occasion.
29:35So, third time lucky.
29:36There you go.
29:37Friends now.
29:38Friends.
29:39Now, this new special, Attenborough and the Giant Dinosaurs,
29:44on this Sunday, BBC One, 6.30.
29:46And it's extraordinary that these discoveries,
29:50really amazing discoveries, are still being made.
29:53Why had this not been discovered before?
29:55I suppose it's comparatively rare.
29:58They lived in a rather remote place.
30:00They lived in Patagonia, right at the far end of South America.
30:04And, you know, dinosaur fossils aren't all that common.
30:08And a local man who had a big, essentially, a sheep run,
30:14saw this enormous bone sticking out of the cliff.
30:18And he told local people, and eventually a paleontologist,
30:22a fossil expert, came along.
30:23He said, yeah, it's a dinosaur.
30:25And not only is it a dinosaur, it's a very, very big dinosaur.
30:29And that particular bone was the thigh bone, this one,
30:33and it's nine feet tall, three metres tall.
30:37Oh, my God.
30:37So it's huge, this animal.
30:39It's incredible.
30:40I tell you what, before we talk about it some more,
30:42because talking about it doesn't really convey the size of it,
30:45so we've got a clip from the show
30:47that conveys just how big these things were.
30:50The first sauropods to appear on Earth were comparatively small creatures.
30:56This is the cast of the thigh bone of one of them.
31:00It's not even as big as my thigh bone.
31:02But after about 20 million years, some had become pretty big.
31:10This is a thigh bone from one of those creatures.
31:14But then, after that, our giant appeared.
31:19This is its thigh bone.
31:22Isn't that nuts?
31:23You know the dinosaur that's in the Natural History Museum?
31:31Yeah.
31:32Diplodocus fills the entrance hall, you know?
31:35Yeah.
31:35This one is half as big again, the new one.
31:40Oh, my God.
31:41Wow.
31:41Wow.
31:42And what is more, oh, Diplodocus, the one in the Natural History Museum,
31:46could walk underneath this one's belly.
31:48And how many, because they didn't just find one of these.
31:54It wasn't like a freak.
31:55It wasn't like, oh, he's very tall for his age.
31:58I mean, there were a lot of these guys.
32:02Well, there must have been,
32:03because otherwise there wouldn't have been any more.
32:05Yes, yes, I'm with you.
32:07But actually, if it so happened,
32:09this particular deposit where they found those bones,
32:12there are the remains of seven different individuals,
32:15all of the same kind.
32:16So they're all whoppers.
32:18Yeah.
32:18And now, in your own house, you have some...
32:20No, I don't have one.
32:21No, no, you don't have one.
32:22No, no, you don't have one.
32:22No, no, no.
32:24But no, you do have some dinosaur thing.
32:27Well, I've got the occasional, occasional thing.
32:29What have you got?
32:30What have you got?
32:31What do you want?
32:32Well, I don't know.
32:33Can you do me?
32:37You've got a dinosaur foot...
32:39Is it a footprint you've got?
32:40I've got a dinosaur footprint.
32:43Okay.
32:43Footprints, a dinosaur footprint,
32:45are quite common in Texas.
32:47You can buy 100 yards of dinosaur footprint.
32:50Kevin Hart's shopping already.
32:53I was about to ask the price for that thigh bone.
32:55I know what I want to do with my money.
32:58Is it something good to show off to my friends?
32:59There was a Texas millionaire that became the fashion to buy 50 yards of dinosaur footprint
33:07and put them in your garden, you see.
33:09And a Texas millionaire...
33:10So jealous now.
33:11Kevin Hart's so jealous.
33:13...bought 20 yards and laid them out and was very proud of it
33:17and then invited the next-door neighbour, who was also a millionaire,
33:20to come over and look at his dinosaur footprint.
33:22So the visitor came in, saw these immense footprints around and said,
33:28My God, what are those?
33:31And he said, they're dinosaur footprints.
33:33And the visitor said, I had no idea they'd come so close to the house.
33:45Now, I don't want to embarrass you, but we have to mention,
33:48you do have quite a large birthday very, very soon.
33:52Yes.
33:53It's, what, 90?
33:54We can say it.
33:55It's 90.
33:55It's a thing to be celebrated.
33:56Oh, yes.
33:57It's a thing to be celebrated.
33:57Oh, yes.
34:00So, how is it...
34:02I mean, how is it going to be marked personally?
34:07How is it going to be marked by the BBC?
34:09What's happening?
34:09I would like to ignore the whole issue.
34:13The BBC is talking now about doing something under programme.
34:16I don't know what, but they're going to do something.
34:18They'll have to do something.
34:19Oh, something.
34:20Yes, they will.
34:20A cake.
34:22And you, Laurie, could play Happy Birthday.
34:25I will.
34:25Yes, they will.
34:26They will.
34:27They will.
34:27They will.
34:28They will love you.
34:29OK.
34:30It's time for music.
34:32Now, this Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter is destined for great things.
34:37Here, singing her hit single X's and O's, please welcome El King.
34:41APPLAUSE
34:42I had me a boy, turned him into a man.
34:54Showed him all the things that didn't understand.
34:57Whoa.
34:59Then I let him go.
35:03Now there's one in California who's been cursing my name.
35:07Because I found me a better lover in the UK.
35:10And you can't date.
35:11Tell him I'm going to get away.
35:17One, two, three, they're going to run back to me.
35:20Because I'm the best baby that they never got a key.
35:24One, two, three, they're going to run back to me.
35:27They always want to come, but they never want to leave.
35:31X's and the O's, they on me.
35:36Like a voice, they want me.
35:39To me, oh, they want me.
35:43They go, X's and roll.
35:51I had the summer lover down on the New Orleans.
35:54I kept them warm in the wind.
35:56I left them frozen in the spring.
35:58My mind.
35:58How'd the season go by?
36:04I get high and I love to get low.
36:08So the hearts keep breaking and the heads just roll.
36:11You know.
36:13That's how the story goes.
36:18One, two, three, they're going to run back to me.
36:21Because I'm the best baby that they never got a key.
36:25One, two, three, they're going to run back to me.
36:28They always want to come, but they never want to leave.
36:32X's and the O's, they on me.
36:36Like a voice, you want me.
36:39To me, oh, they want me.
36:43To me, oh, they want me.
36:44Oh, they want me.
36:45To me, oh, they want me.
36:47Oh, they want me.
36:48And you're going to run back to me.
36:49Like a voice, you want me.
36:53To me, oh, oh, oh
36:55They walk, let's go
36:57Actually alone
36:59One, two, three, they're gonna run back to me
37:15Climbing over mountains and sailing overseas
37:18One, two, three, they're gonna run back to me
37:22They always wanna come, but they never wanna leave my head
37:26And they only on me
37:30Like a ghost who want me
37:33To me, oh, oh, oh
37:36They walk, let's go
37:38Except
37:39And they only on me
37:43Like a ghost who want me

38:25So nice to meet you.
38:26Hi.
38:27Nice to meet you.
38:28I see you.
38:29This is David Attenborough.
38:30Oh, my goodness.
38:31Everyone sit down, sit down, sit down.
38:32Do you want to take your seat first?
38:34Okay.
38:35Sit.
38:36Oh, see, I just automatically think it's like, oh, he's been mean.
38:40He wants my seat.
38:41Well, I'm in the back of a car.
38:43I sit in the middle.
38:44I don't mind.
38:45No.
38:46Well, we must tell the people that is from the album Love Stuff.
38:50Yeah.
38:51Which, and where did the name come from?
38:53Um, a sex shop in Florida.
38:57There you go.
38:58Anyone familiar?
38:59Yep.
39:00Yes, I am.
39:01Can I just say that I'm a huge, huge, huge fan and express yourself.
39:09And express yourself was the first rap song that I learned every word to.
39:14Oh, wow.
39:15Oh, you're talking to Q.
39:16Sorry.
39:17Sorry.
39:18Go ahead.
39:19I'm so sorry.
39:20I know my eyes are so big.
39:21Yeah, you got it.
39:22Go ahead.
39:23Sorry.
39:24Sorry.
39:25It was my first, um, like favorite hip hop song ever.
39:30And I've been a crazy hip hop fan ever since.
39:33So, it's awesome to be really close to you.
39:36I mean, it's awesome.
39:38Your song was crazy.
39:39We was over here just nodding our head.
39:42That bass line was sick.
39:43That's when we were talking about the bass line.
39:44Yeah.
39:46That's how you get to black people with a strong bass.
39:48That's how you get us.
39:49And, uh, now you are a fan.
39:54I know you're particularly a fan of Sir David Attenborough.
39:56I am.
39:57Hi.
39:58Are you?
39:59Yeah.
40:00That's kind.
40:01But no, because you are a big animal lover.
40:02You've, like, I know, collecting animals is a weird phrase to use.
40:04No, don't make me sound crazy.
40:05I, people think I'm crazy enough.
40:06No, I've rescued a lot of animals.
40:08I've found a lot of animals.
40:09Crazy!
40:10I only have three dogs right now.
40:13It's fine.
40:14But over the years, you've rescued things that didn't sound like they needed rescuing.
40:18They did, to me.
40:21A rat?
40:22That rat was amazing.
40:23But did it need rescuing?
40:25I know.
40:26I see your eyes.
40:27Someone told me that you have a terrifying rat story.
40:29I don't, I don't care for them.
40:31They're, they're very, they're, like, unbelievably smart though.
40:34I, I, I, I've been sitting on a loo in India.
40:39And a rat comes up.
40:41Oh!
40:42Oh my God!
40:43It's not attractive.
40:44And are you, are you going to be over here for a while now, promoting and stuff?
40:52What day is it?
40:53I don't know.
40:54It's Friday now.
40:56Oh, it is Friday.
40:58Well, every day is Friday, right?
40:59Yeah, on this show it is.
41:01Yeah.
41:02It's Friday.
41:04Listen, listen to where we go.
41:07And we've got time for a visit to the big red chair.
41:11So let's do it.

41:13Hello.
41:14Hello.
41:15Hi, what's your name?

41:17Tony.
41:18Lovely Tony.
41:19Nice to speak to you, Graham.
41:20It's good, Tony.
41:21What do you do?
41:22I work in a secondary school.
41:23See you, Graham?
41:24Oh, yes.
41:25A specific subject?
41:26No, I work with, mainly now, behaviour.
41:28With all the little rascals.
41:29Oh, right.
41:30Does anyone think Tony isn't a real person?
41:34I think they're real.
41:36I'll be going with your story, Tony.
41:38Yeah, what happened was, it was about five years ago.
41:41And, er, we've just gone back to school in January.
41:44I've got my new suit.
41:45I always like to get a new suit for the new year.
41:47Of course.
41:48And, er, yeah, naturally.
41:49And what's happened is, I've gone into the canteen as normal,
41:52cos I always like to eat with the pupils and then go out on duty.
41:55So, I've gone down.
41:56It's my favourite.
41:57There's a little roast dinner.
41:59So, I've gone into the queue.
42:00Nice little bit of lamb.
42:01Roast potatoes.
42:02Greens.
42:03Gravy.
42:04And, er, I thought to myself, cos normally I don't get an afters.
42:07I thought, I'll have a little afters.
42:08A little bit of apple pie custard.
42:09Lovely.
42:10So, I've got that.
42:11Got me little tray.
42:12Walk round where you go to get the, er, folks and knives.
42:15And, as I've gone round, there must have been a bit of water.
42:18I didn't see the water.
42:19My whole foot's gone.
42:20I thought, shit, I'm going over.
42:23And, it went in slow motion.
42:25I can still remember it.
42:26It was slow motion.
42:27And, I've got the tray.
42:28I'm thinking, I've got to hold that tray.
42:30I've gone over.
42:31It backs it the floor.
42:33The tray's gone over.
42:34I've got gravy custard, apple pie and a little bit of lamb.
42:38And, as I've looked up through the gravy and the custard,
42:41I can see a hundred teenagers going, sir's gone over.
42:44Sir's gone over.
42:45Sir's gone over.
42:46And, that's my story, Graham.
42:48Oh, you can even watch.
42:49Give me a little trick, Brian.
42:50Give me a little trick, Brian.
