Mick appeared on the Irish version of "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire"
and towards the end of the programme had already won $500,000.


"You've done very well so far," said the show's presenter, "but for $1
million you've only got one lifeline left - phone a friend.



Everything is riding on this question...will you go for it?" "Sure,"
said Mick. "I'll have a go!" "OK.



The question is: which of the following birds does NOT build it's own
nest? (a) Robin, (b) Sparrow, (c) cuckoo, or (d) thrush."



"I haven't got a clue," said Mick, "so I'll use my last lifeline and
phone my friend Paddy back home in Ballygoon."



Mick called up his mate, 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, Paddy?" asked Mick. "I'm fookin sure."



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



"Is that your final answer?" asked the host.



"Dat it is, Sir."



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