The  Irish  Millionaire

Mick, from Dublin , appeared on 'Who  Wants To Be  A Millionaire'
and towards the end of the program had  already won 500,000  euros.

"You've done very  well so far,"  said Chris Tarrant, the show's presenter,  
"but  for a million euros you've only got  one life-line left, phone a friend.  
Everything is riding on this  question.  Will you go for  it?"

"Sure,"  said Mick. "I'll have a  go!"

"Which of the  following birds  does NOT build its own nest?

a)   Sparrow

d)   Cuckoo?"

"I  haven't got a clue." said  Mick,

''So  I'll use my last  lifeline and phone my friend Paddy back home in Dublin   ..."

Mick  called up his mate, and told  him the circumstances and
repeated the  question to  him.


"Fookin  hell, Mick!" cried  Paddy.  
"Dat's  simple it's a cuckoo."
"Are  you sure?"

"I'm fookin   sure."

Mick hung up the  phone and told Chris,
"I'll go  with cuckoo as my answer."

"Is that your final answer?"  asked  Chris.

"Dat it  is."

There was a long,  long pause  and then the presenter screamed,
"Cuckoo is the correct answer!    Mick, you've won 1 million euros!"






The  next night, Mick invited Paddy  to their local pub to buy him a  drink.

"Tell me, Paddy?  How in  Heaven's name did you  know  it  was da Cuckoo that doesn't build its own  nest?"



"Because he lives in a Fookin' clock!"
