00:00:03.240 --> 00:00:06.360
This is the Technical Difficulties, we are playing
Citation Needed...

2
00:00:09.380 --> 00:00:10.520
Carry on, Tom(!)

3
00:00:10.900 --> 00:00:13.060
Joining me today, he reads books y'know,
it’s Chris Joel.

00:00:13.060 --> 00:00:14.620
Now available in pill form.

00:00:15.960 --> 00:00:18.100
Everybody’s favourite Gary Brannan –
Gary Brannan.

00:00:18.100 --> 00:00:19.640
"Burn the cities.

"Salt the earth so that no-nothing may ever-y
there grow ag..."

8
00:00:22.289 --> 00:00:24.680
Can I do that again,
because I really screwed that up?

9
00:00:24.680 --> 00:00:26.960
No! And the bounciest man
on the internet, Matt Gray.

10
00:00:26.960 --> 00:00:28.980
Hello, live studio audience!

11
00:00:32.040 --> 00:00:35.460
In front of me I’ve got an article from
Wikipedia, and these folks can’t see it.

12
00:00:35.460 --> 00:00:37.120
Every fact they get right is a point
and a ding…

13
00:00:38.020 --> 00:00:40.300
And there's a special prize for particularly
good answers, which is…

14
00:00:44.080 --> 00:00:48.620
And today we are talking about the $100 hamburger.

15
00:00:48.620 --> 00:00:50.060
Whoa!

16
00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:52.580
Tastes crap, no beef in it.

17
00:00:52.580 --> 00:00:53.800
Just two bread buns.

18
00:00:53.800 --> 00:00:55.080
Dollars.

19
00:00:55.080 --> 00:00:57.000
“This seems like a waste!”

20
00:00:57.000 --> 00:00:59.340
The worst thing was: all ones.

21
00:01:00.580 --> 00:01:02.200
Well at least there's fibre content there!

22
00:01:02.210 --> 00:01:04.379
I was thinking a single $100, which would
just look lousy.

23
00:01:04.379 --> 00:01:06.860
And now, Gary Brannan’s burger opinions.

321
00:01:06.860 --> 00:01:07.860
Yes.

25
00:01:07.860 --> 00:01:10.280
Too many things on top: s***.

26
00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:11.280
McDonald’s!

27
00:01:11.740 --> 00:01:14.180
Oh, depending on what you get, alright-

28
00:01:14.189 --> 00:01:15.189
Wimpy.

29
00:01:15.189 --> 00:01:18.320
Oh, by far the superior because they give
their prices in pence.

30
00:01:19.720 --> 00:01:22.479
And it comes on a plate,
like a civilised person.

31
00:01:22.479 --> 00:01:24.110
Wimpy comes on a plate?

32
00:01:24.110 --> 00:01:27.530
Wimpy’s, if you go into a Wimpy, and there’s
not many left, I’ll mark you,

33
00:01:27.530 --> 00:01:31.039
they come on a plate,
with like a knife and fork.

34
00:01:31.039 --> 00:01:32.039
Phrasing!

35
00:01:32.039 --> 00:01:34.529
They do, they do.

36
00:01:34.529 --> 00:01:38.939
Is this one of things that’s been invented
by a chef as ostensibly a publicity stunt

37
00:01:38.939 --> 00:01:41.310
that needs something like wagyu beef,
or something like that?

38
00:01:41.310 --> 00:01:43.969
Those do exist, I’m fairly sure there's
a $1,000,000 burger

39
00:01:43.969 --> 00:01:45.549
with gold leaf or something out there,

40
00:01:45.549 --> 00:01:46.549
but this is not that.

41
00:01:46.549 --> 00:01:48.630
It is not actually even a hamburger.

42
00:01:48.630 --> 00:01:53.929
Is it the genetically grown in a petri-dish
kind of one that they did?

43
00:01:53.929 --> 00:01:56.462
Oh no, right now that’s a lot more expensive
than this is.

44
00:01:56.462 --> 00:01:57.700
Oh yes, it is, isn’t it.

45
00:01:57.700 --> 00:01:59.539
It's at least, like, $200
or something like that.

46
00:01:59.540 --> 00:02:01.600
If it was only £100 to grow your own burger
without a cow…

47
00:02:01.600 --> 00:02:05.159
I was going to say, it would still be cheaper
to slaughter a cow.

48
00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:07.850
Is it a person from Hamburg?

49
00:02:07.850 --> 00:02:08.869
Oh!

50
00:02:08.869 --> 00:02:10.840
Or anyone with the right to vote in a township?

51
00:02:13.760 --> 00:02:15.380
- What?
- It is a phrase...

52
00:02:15.380 --> 00:02:17.900
A burger is someone who has a burgage and
therefore holds a burgage plot

53
00:02:17.900 --> 00:02:19.280
and has the right to vote in a town.

54
00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:20.920
- Really?
- Thank you very much.

55
00:02:20.920 --> 00:02:22.400
- There you go.
- I am learning!

56
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:23.940
- Archivist fact.
- Fact.

57
00:02:23.940 --> 00:02:27.580
A $100 hamburger is certainly about food,
but this is slang

58
00:02:27.580 --> 00:02:29.910
for something you might do in general aviation.

59
00:02:29.910 --> 00:02:32.410
Is this... is this Elvis?

60
00:02:32.410 --> 00:02:34.030
Oh.

61
00:02:34.030 --> 00:02:36.450
You have jumped ahead in my script,
but you know what,

62
00:02:36.450 --> 00:02:38.150
yes, I am going to give you the point.

63
00:02:38.150 --> 00:01:06.860
Yes, this is the fool’s gold loaf that he-

321
00:01:06.860 --> 00:01:07.860
Yes.

65
00:02:41.660 --> 00:02:42.890
So what's a $100 hamburger then?

66
00:02:42.890 --> 00:02:44.070
Before we get into the fool’s gold-

67
00:02:44.070 --> 00:02:45.340
Is it where someone rocks up and goes,

68
00:02:45.340 --> 00:02:48.670
“I’m going to get a burger, and I’m
going to go in a plane to get the burger,”

69
00:02:48.670 --> 00:02:52.070
and then eat the burger in the sky, and go,
“Ha, ha, ha, sky burgers.”

70
00:02:52.070 --> 00:02:55.480
Yes, you know what, I'm going to give you
the point there.

71
00:02:55.480 --> 00:02:59.550
It is basically an excuse
to use your plane and fly,

72
00:02:59.550 --> 00:03:02.900
to keep your hours up, “I’m going to
go get a hamburger from that place.”

73
00:03:02.900 --> 00:03:04.200
Wimpy!

74
00:03:04.920 --> 00:03:07.930
I would love to see you try and land a plane
at a Wimpy.

75
00:03:07.930 --> 00:03:08.930
Bowling alleys.

76
00:03:08.930 --> 00:03:10.380
Oh, all slippy.

77
00:03:10.380 --> 00:01:06.860
Also, that would be a 10,000 pence hamburger.

321
00:01:06.860 --> 00:01:07.860
Yes.

79
00:03:16.480 --> 00:03:18.540
In the environs we are talking of, in York,

80
00:03:18.540 --> 00:03:20.590
there is a ring road around the bowling alley.

81
00:03:20.590 --> 00:03:22.130
Now if you were to do that
about one in the morning,

82
00:03:22.130 --> 00:03:24.280
I reckon it would be quiet enough to get a
Cessna down there.

83
00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:26.060
Yes, but the Wimpy’s not open.

84
00:03:26.060 --> 00:03:27.020
S***.

85
00:03:27.940 --> 00:03:29.140
Elvis...

86
00:03:29.140 --> 00:03:32.200
I forget, I think he heard about it at a party,

87
00:03:32.210 --> 00:03:35.000
as Elvis would, you know, in the Jungle Room.

88
00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:38.780
My mum and dad went to Graceland, and I think
it can be described as ‘disappointing’.

89
00:03:38.780 --> 00:03:40.960
I went there a long, long while ago-

90
00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:44.720
It looks like a ’60s council planning officer’s
self-designed house.

91
00:03:46.730 --> 00:03:48.460
It looks really poor from the outside.

92
00:03:48.470 --> 00:03:50.100
That’s a really specific gag,
but he's right.

93
00:03:50.100 --> 00:03:51.940
He is absolutely right.

94
00:03:51.940 --> 00:03:52.940
It does.

95
00:03:52.940 --> 00:03:54.360
But Elvis heard about this thing, and...

96
00:03:54.360 --> 00:03:55.980
Is it a loaf of bread that's hollowed out,

97
00:03:55.980 --> 00:03:58.950
and it's full of peanut butter, and jam, and
banana, and it's fried?

98
00:03:58.950 --> 00:04:03.069
You have missed- it’s not banana, it is
something even worse for you than...

99
00:04:03.069 --> 00:04:04.480
- Jelly?
- Banana ice-cream?

100
00:04:04.480 --> 00:04:06.500
- Bacon!
- Oh, I forgot the bacon.

101
00:04:06.500 --> 00:04:08.720
It is an entire loaf.

102
00:04:08.720 --> 00:04:10.300
We are not talking like a small-

103
00:04:10.310 --> 00:04:11.650
I mean, I will give you a point-

104
00:04:11.650 --> 00:04:16.720
It's not, like, a little one,
it is a full loaf, hollowed out,

105
00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:18.760
filled with a couple of pounds of bacon,

106
00:04:18.760 --> 00:04:22.159
and peanut butter, and grape jelly.

107
00:04:22.159 --> 00:04:24.090
So, jam, but like-

108
00:04:24.090 --> 00:04:25.090
Oh jam.

109
00:04:25.090 --> 00:04:26.090
Oh fine.

110
00:04:26.090 --> 00:04:27.090
Oh yes that’s fine, yes(!)

111
00:04:27.090 --> 00:04:29.490
Well jelly is all wobbly, it'll sq...

112
00:04:29.490 --> 00:04:33.479
Well  it's not a children’s treat now,
is it(?)

113
00:04:33.479 --> 00:04:35.960
Roughly how many calories does the fool’s
gold loaf…?

114
00:04:35.960 --> 00:01:06.860
All of them.

321
00:01:06.860 --> 00:01:07.860
Yes.

116
00:04:37.960 --> 00:04:39.979
All right, Price is Right rules,
closest without going over.

117
00:04:39.979 --> 00:04:42.650
There's not a number, there's just a letter!

118
00:04:42.650 --> 00:04:44.080
It's got an ‘about’ in here.

119
00:04:44.080 --> 00:04:48.360
And bearing in mind the bread is baked with
margarine and oil

120
00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:50.020
and things like that in it as well.

121
00:04:50.020 --> 00:04:51.270
Ten thousand.

122
00:04:51.270 --> 00:04:52.270
Ten thousand?

123
00:04:52.270 --> 00:04:53.960
I think it's about a daily allowance.

124
00:04:53.960 --> 00:04:55.520
I think it is about 2,500.

125
00:04:56.960 --> 00:04:57.960
Fifteen thousand.

126
00:04:59.820 --> 00:05:01.140
Gary wins, it's 8,000.

127
00:05:01.140 --> 00:05:02.300
Price is Right rules.

128
00:05:02.300 --> 00:05:03.240
Only barely!

129
00:05:03.240 --> 00:05:04.680
I'm still giving you the point.

130
00:05:04.680 --> 00:05:07.600
It is four days’ worth of food.

131
00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:09.460
- Jesus wept.
- Every evening.

132
00:05:10.120 --> 00:05:13.639
Because doesn’t he get everyone together,
goes to his private jet,

133
00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:18.509
flies four hours or something, to wherever
this place is that makes it.

134
00:05:18.509 --> 00:05:20.740
They have some waiting in an aircraft hangar
for him,

135
00:05:20.740 --> 00:05:23.740
and I assume that can’t waddle out of the
aircraft hangar at this point in time.

136
00:05:23.740 --> 00:05:26.800
They sit on the steps of the plane,
scoff it, and then fly home.

137
00:05:31.520 --> 00:05:33.900
Where do you get this?

138
00:05:33.900 --> 00:05:35.360
I'd like to try some of it.

139
00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:36.419
Ah, right.

140
00:05:36.419 --> 00:05:41.780
So it was made by a restaurant called the
Colorado Mine Company in Denver, Colorado.

141
00:05:41.780 --> 00:05:44.229
Which is quite a way away from
where they were-

142
00:05:44.229 --> 00:05:45.850
Yes, Memphis to Colorado.

143
00:05:45.850 --> 00:05:46.850
Who invents this?

144
00:05:46.850 --> 00:05:47.889
You can’t do that by mistake.

145
00:05:47.889 --> 00:05:51.529
It is not like a Bakewell pudding, you know,
or anything like that.

146
00:05:51.529 --> 00:05:55.199
That is genuinely someone has seen bread,
jam, bacon, peanut butter,

147
00:05:55.199 --> 00:05:56.199
pfft, go for it.

148
00:05:56.199 --> 00:05:57.199
Whatever happens, happens!

149
00:05:57.199 --> 00:05:58.379
That is a common American sandwich though.

150
00:05:58.379 --> 00:05:59.379
Not the size, quantity though.

151
00:05:59.379 --> 00:06:00.539
- Peanut butter and jelly-
- Isn’t it?

152
00:06:00.539 --> 00:06:03.879
Yes, peanut butter and jelly is a normal thing,
but the bacon's in there as well.

153
00:06:03.879 --> 00:06:06.820
You are pretty much right – "taking his
private jet from Graceland,

154
00:06:06.820 --> 00:06:08.719
"Presley and his friends purchased 30 of them-"

155
00:06:08.719 --> 00:06:10.499
Whoa.

156
00:06:10.499 --> 00:06:12.319
You can’t open a window on that plane.

157
00:06:12.319 --> 00:06:13.999
That's a long four hour flight.

158
00:06:13.999 --> 00:06:17.340
They didn’t turn the engines on though,
they just sat in the back and waited.

159
00:06:17.340 --> 00:06:20.669
Yes, they never left the airport, they invited
the pilots to join them as well.

160
00:06:20.669 --> 00:06:23.760
Ha, I think the pilots would be well advised
to lock the doors(!)

161
00:06:25.009 --> 00:06:27.380
There is also something called the
‘Elvis Sandwich’,

162
00:06:27.380 --> 00:06:29.999
and you got some of the ingredients
of this earlier.

163
00:06:29.999 --> 00:06:30.999
This is a...

164
00:06:30.999 --> 00:06:32.270
I have had one.

165
00:06:32.270 --> 00:06:38.189
Or something that claims to be one, in a
burger place vaguely near here.

166
00:06:38.189 --> 00:06:39.199
And it was a lot of food.

167
00:06:39.199 --> 00:06:41.400
Does it start with a slice of Elvis?

168
00:06:41.400 --> 00:06:44.960
'Cos the one I’ve had was banana, peanut
butter, bacon and-

169
00:06:44.960 --> 00:06:45.979
That’s it, you have got the ingredients.

170
00:06:45.979 --> 00:06:46.979
You are absolutely right.

171
00:06:46.980 --> 00:06:48.440
Peanut butter, bacon and banana.

172
00:06:48.440 --> 00:06:50.120
Oh, so that’s not as bad as it could be, then?

173
00:06:50.120 --> 00:06:52.160
Well, no, but erm-

174
00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:54.259
If you are ordering one,
don’t order the chips.

175
00:06:54.259 --> 00:06:56.270
You don’t need them.

176
00:06:56.270 --> 00:06:59.889
Don’t order bacon chips either, because
you really don’t need them(!)

177
00:06:59.889 --> 00:07:01.729
In a sandwich that pretty much killed Elvis?

178
00:07:01.729 --> 00:07:03.199
They've thought: how could we make this more
deadly.

179
00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:04.370
Again, I am going to give you a point.

180
00:07:04.370 --> 00:07:06.860
It's "the sandwich that killed Elvis".

181
00:07:06.860 --> 00:07:07.860
Yeah.

182
00:07:07.860 --> 00:07:08.939
Well not specifically one.

183
00:07:08.939 --> 00:07:11.080
The many sandwiches that killed Elvis.

184
00:07:11.080 --> 00:07:12.110
No, no, there was just one.

185
00:07:12.110 --> 00:07:14.080
It was at the back of the theatre that night.

186
00:07:15.569 --> 00:07:16.660
Just waiting.

187
00:07:16.669 --> 00:07:21.270
Elvis was known for a ludicrous
calorie intake.

188
00:07:21.270 --> 00:07:23.229
Oh, I thought he was famous for singing?

189
00:07:23.229 --> 00:07:24.629
I was going to say!

190
00:07:24.629 --> 00:07:26.260
I mean, he was famous for many things...

191
00:07:26.260 --> 00:07:28.860
They just found it afterwards.
Oh, he can sing(!)

192
00:07:28.860 --> 00:07:31.090
He could hold a tune(!)

193
00:07:31.090 --> 00:07:34.240
I don’t think that the massive calorie intake
got him that Vegas residency, Tom.

194
00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:35.300
I don’t know.

195
00:07:35.300 --> 00:07:38.159
Hoovering up the ‘all you can eat’ buffet,
what’s left?

196
00:07:38.159 --> 00:07:39.300
Oh don’t, I...

197
00:07:39.300 --> 00:07:41.080
All he can eat, yes!

198
00:07:41.080 --> 00:07:44.550
Last time I went to- it's a shaming story
but I'm going to share it with the world,

199
00:07:44.550 --> 00:07:46.589
because this needs to be out there.

200
00:07:46.589 --> 00:07:48.560
Last time I went to an
all you can eat buffet, right-

201
00:07:48.560 --> 00:07:49.560
Oh boy.

202
00:07:49.560 --> 00:07:50.560
I had a few beforehand.

203
00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:53.400
I mean, there's a picture of like a big jug
of lager appearing on the table.

204
00:07:53.400 --> 00:07:55.150
And it's one of these world buffets.

205
00:07:55.150 --> 00:07:59.520
It's underground, there’s no windows, you
can go in there and not be judged, and just

206
00:07:59.520 --> 00:08:00.520
eat whatever.

207
00:08:00.520 --> 00:08:02.949
You want a Yorkshire pudding with custard
and chicken tikka in it?

208
00:08:02.949 --> 00:08:03.949
Gonna do it, right.

209
00:08:03.949 --> 00:08:04.949
Can happen.

210
00:08:04.949 --> 00:08:06.139
I didn’t, I didn’t, I didn’t, I didn’t.

211
00:08:06.139 --> 00:08:07.589
They were on separate plates, that's fine.

212
00:08:07.589 --> 00:08:09.120
They didn’t have any custard, they had to
use Pepto-Bismol.

213
00:08:10.220 --> 00:08:11.600
But there was one point later on.

214
00:08:11.610 --> 00:08:13.710
They have an ice cream section,

215
00:08:13.710 --> 00:08:18.350
and this was later in the evening, and I wanted
some ice cream, right?

216
00:08:18.350 --> 00:08:20.029
And I manhandled the lid open.

217
00:08:20.029 --> 00:08:23.800
Only afterwards I realised it should be opened
by a staff member, but you know, whatever.

218
00:08:23.800 --> 00:08:24.720
"Mine.

219
00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:25.680
Ice cream.

220
00:08:25.680 --> 00:08:26.600
Grrr!"

221
00:08:26.600 --> 00:08:28.040
Are you doing the thing where you take a plate,

222
00:08:28.040 --> 00:08:30.080
and then you leave the plate
and take the tray?

223
00:08:30.090 --> 00:08:31.090
Well, that's... yeah!

224
00:08:31.090 --> 00:08:35.360
There was a point where I saw this lovely
yellow sphere there,

225
00:08:35.360 --> 00:08:37.940
and I was like, that’s a lovely looking
ball of lemon sorbet.

226
00:08:37.940 --> 00:08:40.990
It’s got a little bit of chocolate on it,
that’s exactly what I fancy right now.

227
00:08:40.990 --> 00:08:43.459
Popped it on my plate, and I was chased by
someone

228
00:08:43.459 --> 00:08:45.690
because I had picked up a
plastic ball pool ball

229
00:08:45.690 --> 00:08:48.580
that had chocolate on it as decoration.

230
00:08:49.780 --> 00:08:53.889
Stuff that looks like food near an
all-you-can-eat buffet is a recipe for disaster.

231
00:08:53.889 --> 00:08:54.889
Well, that was my argument!

232
00:08:54.889 --> 00:08:55.880
Ha, ha, hey!

233
00:08:57.200 --> 00:08:58.200
Thanks Matt, no-one else liked it.

234
00:08:58.200 --> 00:08:59.579
I'm the only one that liked that,
aren’t I?

235
00:08:59.579 --> 00:09:02.970
There is a reference: increasing fuel prices
mean that a Cessna

236
00:09:02.970 --> 00:09:08.910
now costs about
$95-130 per Hobbs hour to rent.

237
00:09:08.910 --> 00:09:10.170
What is a Hobbs hour?

238
00:09:10.170 --> 00:09:12.620
It's got an imaginary tiger in it.

239
00:09:15.860 --> 00:09:17.560
Sadly, no E, but it would be good.

240
00:09:17.560 --> 00:09:19.519
Oh, screw that then.

241
00:09:19.519 --> 00:09:20.519
Flying hours?

242
00:09:20.519 --> 00:09:23.019
Or is it the time you are in the air, or something
like that?

243
00:09:23.019 --> 00:09:26.470
The time you are off the tarmac, as opposed
to fannying around getting on the runway?

244
00:09:26.470 --> 00:09:28.040
Yes. What might you measure that with?

245
00:09:28.040 --> 00:09:29.080
Hobnobs.

246
00:09:29.720 --> 00:09:31.960
A big tape measure...?

247
00:09:32.940 --> 00:09:33.940
For time?

248
00:09:33.940 --> 00:09:37.280
Don’t judge me, it is the way it’s always
worked for me.

249
00:09:37.720 --> 00:09:38.940
You should see his watch.

250
00:09:39.900 --> 00:09:41.520
“It’s 37 inches this afternoon.”

251
00:09:42.620 --> 00:09:44.140
Chronometer?

252
00:09:44.140 --> 00:09:45.600
Yes, what's the chronometer called?

253
00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:46.640
Geoff.

254
00:09:48.260 --> 00:09:50.130
Swing and a miss.

255
00:09:50.130 --> 00:09:51.160
The clue is in the question.

256
00:09:51.160 --> 00:01:06.860
The Hobbs Chronometer!

321
00:01:06.860 --> 00:01:07.860
Yes.

258
00:09:53.160 --> 00:09:54.160
It is a Hobbs meter.

259
00:09:54.160 --> 00:09:55.160
It is a-

260
00:09:55.160 --> 00:09:57.070
“Yes, I have got seven Hobbs.”

261
00:09:57.070 --> 00:10:00.800
It is a meter that measures hours in the air,

262
00:10:00.800 --> 00:10:02.389
but how do you measure that?

263
00:10:02.389 --> 00:10:06.560
How do you rent an aircraft and work out the
time it has been flying for?

264
00:10:06.560 --> 00:10:09.410
Is it triggered by when the wheels go up?

265
00:10:09.410 --> 00:10:12.220
If you are renting the plane, you want your
Hobbs Meter

266
00:10:12.220 --> 00:10:14.540
to not run for as long as possible,

267
00:10:14.540 --> 00:10:18.339
because while it is running, then you're paying.

268
00:10:18.339 --> 00:10:22.470
So what system are they using to make sure
that people don’t cheat it?

269
00:10:22.470 --> 00:10:25.380
Airspeed meter that only comes in above the
stall speed?

270
00:10:25.380 --> 00:10:26.380
Yes, you are absolutely right.

271
00:10:26.380 --> 00:10:28.610
And in fact, I am going to give you a point
for landing gear as well.

272
00:10:28.610 --> 00:10:31.980
A pressure switch attached to landing gear,

273
00:10:31.980 --> 00:10:34.040
or an air speed sensing vane under a wing.

274
00:10:34.040 --> 00:10:35.520
Either way, you make sure it is up.

275
00:10:35.520 --> 00:10:38.270
Does that mean they do a lot of stalling to
get some free hours out of it?

276
00:10:38.270 --> 00:10:39.270
Oh my God!

277
00:10:39.270 --> 00:10:40.790
Stall all the way down, and then fly back
up again.

278
00:10:40.790 --> 00:10:45.480
This is one of the things, it used to be how
long the electrical system was on.

279
00:10:45.480 --> 00:10:46.610
How did people get around that?

280
00:10:46.610 --> 00:10:48.580
Were they gliding to land?

281
00:10:48.580 --> 00:10:49.580
More than that.

282
00:10:49.580 --> 00:10:50.759
Just doing long glides?

283
00:10:50.759 --> 00:10:52.209
Just not turning the electrics on?

284
00:10:52.209 --> 00:10:53.209
How?

285
00:10:53.209 --> 00:10:54.209
Yes, absolutely right.

286
00:10:54.209 --> 00:10:55.209
Flying with the electrics off.

287
00:10:55.209 --> 00:10:56.209
Oh, boy!

288
00:10:56.209 --> 00:10:58.300
Get up in the air, get going – because once
you have started,

289
00:10:58.300 --> 00:10:59.300
you don’t need the electrics.

290
00:10:59.300 --> 00:11:00.300
Turn them off.

291
00:11:00.300 --> 00:11:01.300
Oh, because it's an... engine.

292
00:11:01.300 --> 00:11:03.440
Yes, spend 20 minutes with no radar or-

293
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:04.800
No cigarette lighter.

294
00:11:04.800 --> 00:11:05.800
No radio.

295
00:11:05.800 --> 00:11:06.800
Ahh.

296
00:11:06.800 --> 00:11:07.800
And no radio...

297
00:11:07.800 --> 00:11:10.569
Your phone's got a battery, so it'll keep
playing the music, it'll be fine.

298
00:11:10.569 --> 00:11:13.360
But you keep getting those notifications from
Spotify, and the next time...

299
00:11:13.360 --> 00:01:06.860
...I'm in a mountain!

321
00:01:06.860 --> 00:01:07.860
Yes.

301
00:11:17.110 --> 00:11:18.110
There is also Tach Time.

302
00:11:18.110 --> 00:11:19.110
Tachometer?

303
00:11:19.110 --> 00:11:21.010
Yes, have a point.

304
00:11:21.010 --> 00:11:22.140
What's that measuring?

305
00:11:22.140 --> 00:11:23.140
Distance.

306
00:11:23.140 --> 00:11:24.100
Tachometer.

307
00:11:24.100 --> 00:11:24.940
Like in a lorry.

308
00:11:24.940 --> 00:11:26.020
Not in this case.

309
00:11:26.020 --> 00:11:27.060
Not for a plane.

310
00:11:28.160 --> 00:11:29.740
Because plane not on motorway!

311
00:11:29.740 --> 00:11:32.280
- Very good, Gary!
- Unless something has gone very, very wrong.

312
00:11:32.280 --> 00:11:36.040
Or unless you want to rock up outside
York Megabowl one morning!

313
00:11:36.040 --> 00:11:37.490
Good point there.

314
00:11:37.490 --> 00:11:40.960
You won’t be laughing when I do that
in a 737.

315
00:11:40.960 --> 00:11:41.960
I will!

316
00:11:44.070 --> 00:11:49.260
At which point we smash-cut to five days later
and York local news,

317
00:11:49.269 --> 00:11:51.649
‘Man Lands 737 at York Megabowl’.

318
00:11:51.649 --> 00:11:53.940
“They said I couldn’t do it!”

319
00:11:53.940 --> 00:11:57.509
It is the speed that the engine is rotating.

320
00:11:57.509 --> 00:01:06.860
Oh, is it the amount of rotations of the propeller,
or whatever?

321
00:01:06.860 --> 00:01:07.860
Yes.

322
00:12:02.100 --> 00:12:05.260
So if it, if it is designed to run at 2400rpm,

323
00:12:05.260 --> 00:12:08.240
you can reduce your tach time
by making the aircraft

324
00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:09.910
go a bit slower and a bit safer.

325
00:12:09.910 --> 00:12:15.490
So if you've been out for, say, 20 minutes
on your normal timer,

326
00:12:15.490 --> 00:12:18.579
and then your tach time says you have been
out for three hours’ worth,

327
00:12:18.580 --> 00:12:20.310
they know you have been bombing around going…

328
00:12:21.900 --> 00:12:25.100
I am not entirely certain that's the noise
that a little Cessna makes,

329
00:12:25.100 --> 00:12:26.740
as opposed to a Spitfire.

330
00:12:26.740 --> 00:12:28.139
It is when he's making that noise in it!

331
00:12:29.140 --> 00:12:30.820
I tell you what,
I have been on a plane with you.

332
00:12:30.820 --> 00:12:33.139
He just does that constantly.

333
00:12:33.139 --> 00:12:35.009
With the flying helmet and the mask.

334
00:12:35.009 --> 00:12:38.449
Yes, you get funny looks at Stansted
when he's-

335
00:12:38.449 --> 00:12:43.060
As you are walking past the queue to get on,
shouting “I’m the driver!”?

336
00:12:44.260 --> 00:12:45.260
Driver. Yes.

337
00:12:45.260 --> 00:12:47.500
Which, to be fair, when you're going down
a motorway

338
00:12:47.500 --> 00:12:49.760
outside York Megabowl at one in the morning-

339
00:12:49.760 --> 00:12:51.460
At the end of the show-

340
00:12:52.580 --> 00:12:54.600
Congratulations Gary, you win this one.

341
00:12:54.600 --> 00:12:56.140
Whay!

342
00:12:57.220 --> 00:12:58.220
You win a visit-

343
00:12:59.380 --> 00:13:01.940
I can’t believe you're cringing and you
wrote it.

344
00:13:02.740 --> 00:13:06.340
You win a visit to a late night
electrically-boosted bathing spray,

00:13:06.340 --> 00:13:08.360
run by a member of boy band Another Level.

346
00:13:10.029 --> 00:13:11.940
It is Dane Bowers After Hours Power Showers-

347
00:13:11.940 --> 00:13:12.960
F***!

348
00:13:14.230 --> 00:13:17.680
You try writing a description for ‘shower’
that doesn’t include the word ‘shower’.

00:13:17.690 --> 00:13:18.690
Bathing spray!

350
00:13:18.690 --> 00:13:20.900
