Jeremy, James and others in “November 20th, 2005”

[Demonstrating the new Vauxhall Astra VXR remote control car]

Jeremy

OK, it's over there, it's a Vauxhall VXR [car starts to approach them] Here it comes. And if you just watch carefully, you will note that it has now taken off. [car starts to float] It's flying!

James

It's floating!

Jeremy

No it's not floating, James. It's flying!

[Audience laughs]

Jeremy

There is a man controlling that! I mean, have you ever seen anything like this in your whole life? That is a ton of Vauxhall flying around the studio over people's heads. I will explain how it works, OK? It weighs about 10lbs, which is about the same as my Sunday joint and it has three little propellers that make it steer and move about.

Richard

That's amazing! Is it expensive?

Jeremy

Yes! It costs... five... pounds [Audience laughs] No, I'm joking, it costs £60,000.

Richard

Really?

Jeremy

£60,000 and worth every penny. Ladies and gentlemen, the flying Vauxhall. [audience applauds]
