Transcript
So, I’m going to tell
you about my dad’s ten minutes of fame. It was when he starred on a
TV show ‘The Big Question’ a few years ago and it happened like
this.
My
father took a hired car to – because ours was very old – and he
drove to the TV studios. When he got there, he suddenly realized
that he’d left his tie behind, so he had to ask the producer if
they’d got a spare one at the studio he could borrow. Anyway, he
was told he didn’t need one. Oh, I forgot to say, he didn’t really
study for the show – you know, by reading encyclopedias and so on.
He told me later that the only thing he’d done was what he always
did in the evening, which was read the popular press that we hadn’t
sold during the day and pick up lots of trivial facts.
When the show started,
I think my dad felt quite lucky and very surprised to be able to
answer his questions, which were all about general knowledge and
nothing too specialist, because he actually managed to win. The
show was recorded and came on nearly two months later and we almost
missed it because we’d almost forgotten about it by then.
My dad won a big
television with a wide screen – we’ve still got it at home, and
it’s great for the football – and a big fluffy elephant, which he
gave to me. So that was my dad’s ten minutes of fame. I wonder what
mine will be.
