Emergency Questions

What is the most mundane encounter you have had with a celebrity?

LP: Um, probably – well, Frank Bruno thought I was his taxi driver. That was pretty mundane. I mean, it was at Champneys health resort in Tring and I was driving, at the time, a blue Peugeot 306. And I parked up at the front and Frank Bruno hopped in the back and said, “Take me to Luton.”  And I said, “No, Frank, I won’t.” He took it very well. I think if I was Frank Bruno’s driver that could be quite a good, fun – yeah, that could be a fun thing.

JR: Yes, I made Derek Acorah a cup of tea. When I was working on The Weakest Link. I had to muck in with the celebrity specials and I made him a cup of tea in a polystyrene cup. What happened to him? Where is he? Still going?

How many tennis balls would fit inside a Boeing 737, to the nearest three?

LP: Oh, that’s you *referring to JR*. My kids are doing, like, estimating things at the moment. I sort of go, well there’s – in a seat – How many seats do you reckon there are in a Boeing 7 – whatever it was? *JR doesn’t know.* Like, you could fit… *Audience members point out that there are variations.* Yeah, that’s really true. If it was a military-commissioned one, then they’d turn all the seats upside-down or something, yeah.

JR: I’m the worst at maths in, in probably… At least one.

If I asked you to get a moon rock for me right now, where would you go and how would you get it?

LP: God, it’s like The Apprentice.
