The Irish Millionaire 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. Youve done very well so far, said Chris Tarrant, the shows presenter, but for a million euros youve only got one life-line left, phone a friend. Everything is riding on this question. Will you go for it? Sure, said Mick. Ill have a go! Which of the following birds does NOT build its own nest? a) Sparrow b) Thrush, c) Magpie, d) Cuckoo? I havent got a clue. said Mick, So Ill 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. Bloody hell, Mick! cried Paddy.Dats simple its a cuckoo. Are you sure? Of course Im sure. Mick hung up the phone and told Chris, Ill 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, youve won 1 million euros! The next night, Mick invited Paddy to their local pub to buy him a drink. Tell me, Paddy? How in Heavens name did you know it was da Cuckoo that doesnt build its own nest? Because it lives in a bloody clock Mick !!
