Basically, during Paul’s bit about Eurovision, there was a 4th nugget he added, which was cut out.
He was talking about Kate Robbins (the sister of Ted), who had represented the UK in Eurovision as part of a band called Prima Donna. His nugget was that KATE ROBBINS is amazingly an anagram of BRONSKI BEAT, which is an incredible fact to know.
Anyway, one little slip he did was saying that Prima Donna represented the UK in 1981, and I thought “that can’t be right, cos the UK won with Bucks Fizz in 1981” (which Nathan confirmed to me). Prima Donna actually represented us in 1980.
So, during the second break, I wrote down a note and asked Jay to send it across to Paul, which he did, and then gave us that glare that you get from time to time...
Then, at the end, Paul talks about the intelligence of the audience and reads out the note I wrote to him, and thanks us (without naming us) for pointing out his error.
Would’ve loved to have seen that make the cut, but never mind.
