00:00Hello and welcome to Sorry I Didn't Know.
00:22I'm Chizia Badulu, your Sherpa for tonight's exposition
00:26as we scale paths carved by our pioneering brothers and sisters
00:30and ascend the stunning stories that have long been kept from the summit.
00:34I present to you history with a touch of colour.
00:37APPLAUSE
00:40And to my left, a man whose face has been chiselled by the gods,
00:44it's Richard Blackwood.
00:46CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
00:50Who's with you tonight, Richard?
00:52First of all, thank you. I appreciate that.
00:55And it's true. So with me tonight is a presenter and broadcast journalist
00:59whose career in TV started all because of Idris Elba.
01:03It's TV powerhouse Ria Hebden.
01:06CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
01:09And I'm also joined by a comedian who recently became a doctor
01:13and has taken on the mountains of New Zealand,
01:16my bedroom, Shazia Merza.
01:20APPLAUSE
01:22To my right, he causes an avalanche of laughter everywhere he goes.
01:28It's Eddie Caddy.
01:30APPLAUSE
01:32Who's helping you out tonight, Eddie?
01:37Chizzy, that's my avalanche.
01:39On my team, I'm joined by an honorary Brit whose new show
01:43is called The Golden Wrath.
01:44So don't piss her off tonight, it's Desiree Burch.
01:47CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
01:49Now, I'm also joined by a comedian who became one of the youngest
01:54on the circuit when he kicked off his career in 2009.
01:57It's my guy, it's Matt Richardson.
02:00CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
02:04Matt, you've kicked off a new tour called Brash
02:07and it's all about adulting.
02:08Yeah, well, yeah, it's about growing up and moving.
02:11I've moved to the countryside and a very similar diverse mix to this
02:15and very similar faces in the pub.
02:18We do have a gang in the village, that's quite exciting.
02:20Oh, oh, yeah.
02:21Village in Oxfordshire, we've got four boys that hang outside
02:23the village shop, they call themselves a gang.
02:25They call themselves the village people, they've got no idea.
02:27LAUGHTER
02:28Well, you catch them outside the pub and they threaten you like this.
02:31Yeah, basically that.
02:33They just hang outside the show going,
02:35your blood, what's going on, man?
02:36I'm like, you're called Julian, what are you playing at?
02:38LAUGHTER
02:39Desiree, you are touring with your Golden Wrath show
02:43which sees you embrace a new era of Desiree.
02:45Can you explain that to us?
02:47Yeah, this is the old era, Chizzy.
02:49LAUGHTER
02:50This is the grown-ass era, the second adolescence,
02:53in which it's like, you know, we always talk about
02:56like the metamorphosis of the butterfly, but it's like,
02:59there's a point at which a butterfly is in a cocoon
03:01and it's just a sack of goo.
03:03And it doesn't know what it is or what it's supposed to be,
03:06but it's really trying to become, where it's kind of like,
03:09oh, I actually know who I am, what I care about,
03:12don't care what people think about me,
03:14but I also need to, like, start my body up
03:17for 30 minutes in the morning.
03:18Like, if I don't roll it out like pizza dough on a mat
03:21with a roller for 45 minutes, I might not walk today.
03:24LAUGHTER
03:25Priya.
03:26Tell us more about how Idris helped start your TV career.
03:29Oh, yes.
03:30So, in the early days, I blagged myself into an award show
03:33called the Screen Nation Awards,
03:35and Idris had been nominated for an award,
03:37so I knew he was going to be there.
03:39Got myself a cameraman, got there on the red carpet,
03:41and he came up, and I was like, right, I'm going to smash this,
03:43ask the questions, and then behind us,
03:45the branded banner collapsed and fell on us.
03:48Oh.
03:49And it was, you know, that moment, you're just like,
03:50no, the crucial interview is ruined.
03:52But he looked at me like a true pro, and he was like,
03:54Ria, we go again.
03:56And I was like, thank you so much.
03:57So we went again, got the cut, took it to ITV,
04:00and the rest is history.
04:01Oh, that's lovely.
04:02Yeah.
04:03Love it too.
04:07Shazia.
04:08Hi, Trissie.
04:09Oh, man, you've been here, like, every season, right?
04:11I know, I'm nearly black.
04:13Like, many of you from an ethnic background,
04:18your parents wanted you to become a doctor.
04:20Is that still something they crave?
04:21My parents, they always wanted me to be a doctor,
04:24because there aren't enough Asian doctors in Britain.
04:26Yeah.
04:27And now I'm a doctor on EastEnders,
04:29and my parents have gone round in Birmingham,
04:31knocking on every Asian person's door, going,
04:34finally, my daughter is a doctor.
04:37And they're like, it's not a real one.
04:39And they're like, it'll do, it'll do.
04:41Give it up for our amazing guests, everybody.
04:51It's time for our first round, Guess My Game.
04:54Now, I'm going to show the panel a photo of someone
04:56who made the world a better place,
04:58and they just need to tell me what they're famous for.
05:01OK, can you tell me who this is?
05:04Matt.
05:05Is it the woman who invented pretending to be on the phone
05:08when you're at work?
05:11That's right.
05:12I think she invented the phrase,
05:13these people are getting on my last nerve.
05:17Shazia.
05:18This woman is the new judge on Nigeria's Got Talent.
05:21Yeah, she's looking at the camera and going, go and get her
05:23proper job.
05:24Matt.
05:25I mean, I'm not quite sure who she is,
05:26but I think she's suspicious because she's got two phones,
05:27and that's never a good sign.
05:28Eddie.
05:29OK, so she looks...
05:30It's an office.
05:31She looks very, very serious.
05:32A very important woman, obviously.
05:34A very dominant woman.
05:35She has things to say.
05:36She's the first black woman to have something to say.
05:37No, no, no, no, no.
05:38No, no, no, no.
05:39Listen, listen.
05:40No, no, no, no.
05:41I'm going to give you the answer.
05:43This is Una Marson, a Jamaican activist and writer
05:47who became the BBC's first ever black producer in 1942.
05:51Wow.
05:52I'm going to give you the answer.
05:54This is Una Marson, a Jamaican activist and writer
05:56who became the BBC's first ever black producer in 1942.
05:59Wow.
06:00Wow.
06:01That's right.
06:02She was described as the first black British feminist
06:05to speak out against racism and sexism in Britain.
06:08Who is this happy chappy?
06:10Shazia.
06:11This is Britain's first black gay marriage celebration.
06:13Yes.
06:14Desiree.
06:15This is the first black man to have a conversation down the pub
06:17that didn't involve casual racism.
06:19He's overjoyed.
06:20This is the new black gay gay marriage celebration.
06:22Yes.
06:23Desiree.
06:24This is the first black man to have a conversation down the pub
06:26that didn't involve casual racism.
06:28He's overjoyed.
06:30This is the new black Dellen Rodney.
06:33Is this when the Krays try to be more diverse?
06:38Ria.
06:39Is it the UK's first black landlord?
06:42Pop landlord?
06:43Oh!
06:44Is it?
06:45I'm going to give you a point.
06:47The answer is George Berry, who in 1965 became London's first black pub owner and licensee.
06:56Who is this?
06:58Matt.
06:59Is she the first contestant in Love Island on Mars?
07:04Tonight in the solar system.
07:09Desiree?
07:10She looks like every sort of arch villain in a Tyler Perry film.
07:18You know how she's super...
07:19Like, she knows what you did last summer.
07:21She could do bad all by herself.
07:22Like, whatever the new empire is, she's on top of it.
07:25Yeah.
07:26But with a good wig.
07:27Oh, oh, oh.
07:28Yeah.
07:29Is it a Marvel superhero whose power is her perfect hair?
07:32Yes.
07:33Black Pan 10.
07:34LAUGHTER
07:39Wow.
07:40I'm going to give you the answer.
07:41This superfly sister is aerospace engineer, entrepreneur and former NASA rocket scientist,
07:46Aisha Bowe, who made history this year when she joined an all-woman crew into space.
07:51APPLAUSE
07:54Who is this?
07:57A woman who's just been burgled.
07:59Yeah.
08:00Yeah.
08:01Somebody waiting for that John Lewis delivery to show up.
08:04Eddie?
08:05I don't know.
08:06This just feels like parents' evening back in the days.
08:08And my mum looked at me and said, wait till we get home.
08:11LAUGHTER
08:13Jamaican mastermind.
08:15LAUGHTER
08:17Matt.
08:18I think this is actually a photo of the last time I did a tour date in Brixton.
08:21That's the whole...
08:22LAUGHTER
08:23Ria.
08:24She looks like an expert, doesn't she?
08:26The way she's sat, she looks quite authoritative, quite intelligent,
08:30like she's been interviewed.
08:32I'm going to reveal the answer.
08:33OK.
08:34This is Hope Powell, a former professional footballer with 66 caps for England
08:39who also coached the women's team.
08:41She saw that glass ceiling and volleyed a football straight through it.
08:46OK, who's going here is this lady?
08:50Is she the first woman who ever got her hand caught in something
08:53but didn't want to make a fuss about it?
08:55LAUGHTER
08:56Everything's fine.
08:57She looks like your ideal neighbour.
08:59As soon as you move in, you want some sugar?
09:01LAUGHTER
09:03She does low-key have, like, cool auntie vibes, though,
09:06like the one that's younger than your oldest sister
09:08who, like, tells you how to find the guys with the big D.
09:11LAUGHTER
09:12That's like what a cool aunt will do.
09:14Your mum won't, but a cool aunt will.
09:16LAUGHTER
09:17I can't misspelling.
09:18He never.
09:19This is legendary status, right?
09:20Like, I'm sitting, I'm trying to be nice,
09:21but I'm like, every time somebody says that,
09:23I say, you can't say that, really.
09:24LAUGHTER
09:25Richard, do you want to guess who it is?
09:27Oh, yeah, Jackie.
09:28Jackie?
09:29Graham.
09:30Yeah.
09:31It certainly is.
09:32Is it?
09:33APPLAUSE
09:35This fabulous queen is musical maestro Jackie Graham.
09:38Legend.
09:39And Jackie is in our audience tonight.
09:42Yes!
09:43What?!
09:44Yeah!
09:51Jackie is the first black British female solo artist
09:54to have six consecutive top 20 hits
09:57with tracks including this one.
09:59Legendary.
10:01Let's be better than you.
10:05Jackie, we love you and we just want to give you
10:08your flowers.
10:09Literally.
10:10Oh!
10:11Oh, wow.
10:12Oh, bless your heart.
10:13Thank you, darling.
10:14Thank you again.
10:15Oh, wicked.
10:16And I would be the one to say,
10:18you want some sugar?
10:19Yeah!
10:20May want some, Jackie may want some.
10:22Jackie, thank you so much for everything you've done.
10:26And at the end of that round, the winners are...
10:31Richard's team!
10:38Our next round is movie or movement.
10:41In this round, I'll show the teams a powerful quote.
10:44All they and you at home need to do
10:46is tell me whether it's from a movie
10:48or whether it was said by a political figure or activist.
10:51Richard's team, you're up first.
10:53Your quote is,
10:55If they put me in prison, they do not take away my liberty
10:58but reduce the little liberty I have.
11:01Now, is this a quote from a movie or a movement?
11:04I think it's a movement.
11:05That's a movement, yeah.
11:07Sounds like a movement.
11:08It's a movement, correct.
11:10Two bonus points.
11:12Which movement is it from and who said it?
11:15Sounds like a Nelson Mandela movement.
11:17Nelson Mandela, yeah.
11:18Quote.
11:19We know that Nelson was put in prison.
11:20We also know that they put Muhammad Ali in prison.
11:23You've got to be honest,
11:24every black man that goes into prison
11:26comes out as Muhammad Ali.
11:28LAUGHTER
11:30Jesus!
11:31You're taking a lot of pressure off me, Shazia, today.
11:33LAUGHTER
11:35My agent is downstairs shitting herself
11:37and you are helping me out massively.
11:39LAUGHTER
11:40It's a movement.
11:41It's a movement.
11:42It sounds like Mandela.
11:43It does, doesn't it?
11:44It sounds like Mandela.
11:45Obviously, he went to prison.
11:47I'm going to go with Nelson Mandela.
11:49That's incorrect.
11:50Other team.
11:51Matt, what do you think?
11:52Oh, well, which movement to pick?
11:55Um...
11:56LAUGHTER
11:57I just think, you know, all of them.
11:59All of them are great.
12:01Big ally over here.
12:03Great work everyone's doing.
12:05And sorry for everything that we did.
12:08LAUGHTER
12:09I feel bloody terrible about it.
12:11I can't tell you.
12:12It's an absolute shocker.
12:14Very bad.
12:15Um...
12:16Ooh!
12:17Um...
12:18This is what Jamaican mastermind is like in my nightmares.
12:21LAUGHTER
12:22I haven't got a fucking clue.
12:23LAUGHTER
12:24What are we going with?
12:25Muhammad Ali?
12:26Shall we...?
12:27Yeah, yeah.
12:28Yeah, I guess.
12:29Let's go through who's been in prison.
12:31Yeah, yeah, that's a...
12:32Yeah.
12:33All right, we're going to go for Muhammad Ali.
12:35Is incorrect.
12:37Oh!
12:38This quote is from broadcaster, writer and racial justice campaigner,
12:43the late Great Darkest Howe, taken from his final speech to the jury
12:47at the Mangrove Nine trial in 1971.
12:50Yes!
12:51Eddie's team, your quote is,
12:53we must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.
12:57Yeah.
12:58Is this from a movie or a movement?
13:00No.
13:01It's too basic to be a movement.
13:02That feels like a movie.
13:03That does feel like a movie.
13:04That feels like someone like me's written it, going,
13:07a black person will say it and it will sound good.
13:09That's what that feels like.
13:10It doesn't feel like a great quote, does it?
13:11Yeah.
13:12It's not one for the history books.
13:13Yeah.
13:14It could be anything.
13:15It could be Avatar.
13:16Like, that's the problem.
13:17Yeah, exactly.
13:18What was the film recently with, um, The Woman King?
13:22Because that's all about different tribes coming together to defeat
13:25a bigger purpose.
13:26So I think it would be that.
13:28OK.
13:29So is it a movie or a movement?
13:30Movie.
13:31Movie.
13:32I think it's a movie.
13:33Yes.
13:34It's a movie.
13:35That is correct.
13:36Yes, you can.
13:38Yes, you can.
13:39Yes, you can.
13:40Yes, you can.
13:41That sounded like two people high-fives.
13:43That was great.
13:44We must clap as if we're one single tribe.
13:46I like that.
13:47So for two bonus points, what movie is it from and who said it?
13:53That was my guess, Viola Davis in The Woman King.
13:56Incorrect.
13:57Oh, Max!
13:58Riches, please.
13:59It's going to sound mad to say this, but who's the person that
14:02passed away recently and played Black Panther for?
14:04Oh, my goodness.
14:05I can't remember his lovely name.
14:06Chadwick Boseman.
14:07That's it.
14:08Chadwick Boseman.
14:09And I think it was Black Panther.
14:10It's correct.
14:11Yes!
14:12Yes!
14:13Yes!
14:14Yes!
14:15This is a quote taken from T'Challa in Black Panther.
14:19Congratulations.
14:20And the winner of that round is...
14:23Richard's team!
14:29See you after the break.
14:30Welcome back to Sorry I Didn't Know.
14:45It is time now for Who Am I?
14:48The Girl Man Sugar.
14:51In this round, Eddie and Richard have to play detective by guessing
14:55which famous face is up on the screen.
14:57However, they can only ask their trusty teammates yes or no
15:01questions.
15:02Who's going to be shaft and who's going to get shafted?
15:06Captains, take your places.
15:08This view is beautiful.
15:21Richard, you're at first.
15:22Who is this?
15:24Is this person a female?
15:28Yes.
15:29Boom, bing, bang.
15:31Is this person in entertainment?
15:35Yes.
15:37Is it...
15:39TV?
15:41No.
15:42All right.
15:43Eddie.
15:44Entertainment.
15:45Not on TV.
15:46You haven't done well.
15:52Is this female entertainer on the stage?
15:58How do you want to interpret that?
15:59Not the stage.
16:01With a yes or a no, please.
16:03Hang on.
16:04We can do this.
16:05Yeah.
16:07Okay.
16:08Okay.
16:09Okay.
16:10You didn't say how we can say it.
16:11Uh-huh.
16:12Richardson.
16:13I'm very impressed.
16:15Okay.
16:16Oh.
16:19Entertainment.
16:21This is like watching the world's worst medium.
16:23Yeah.
16:25Do they use equipment?
16:27No.
16:28No.
16:29Richard.
16:30Stupidness.
16:33Am I correct in saying this person sings?
16:37Yes.
16:38Okay.
16:39Cool.
16:40Better.
16:41All right.
16:42Is this person Jamaican?
16:44Yes, she is.
16:45All right.
16:47So this singer, have they had a hit in the last ten years?
16:51No.
16:52No.
16:53No.
16:54Eddie.
16:55So, Jamaican.
16:56Whoa, whoa, whoa.
16:57They said no, Richard.
16:59If it's no, it's no, except rejection.
17:01That's life.
17:03Do they also act?
17:04Yes.
17:05Yes.
17:06Do they have a very well-known movie?
17:07Yes.
17:08Yes.
17:10That's good.
17:11I'm proud of her.
17:12No, I'm just proud of her.
17:13Because, you know, it's a black woman and we don't get those...
17:16This is like explaining any celebrity to my mum.
17:19Do they currently live in Jamaica?
17:21No.
17:22No.
17:23I...
17:24Oh, Richard.
17:25Richard, this is yours.
17:26She's Jamaica, Richard.
17:27Come on.
17:29Come on.
17:30Come on, Richard.
17:31I don't know if you realise, but all the African questions, we got right.
17:34Yeah, that's all right.
17:36I'm glad you know your history.
17:38Yeah.
17:39Well, you sold us, so we forgot about you.
17:44Whoa, whoa, whoa.
17:45I don't appreciate that.
17:46We sold you.
17:53OK.
17:54So, you know who I wanted to go with?
17:56I can't remember her name.
17:57She was in The Distinguished Gentleman with Eddie Murphy.
17:59Yeah.
18:00She won an award and she did a speech and she shut it down and all the women were...
18:03Yes, we've seen you read the autobiography.
18:05Quiet.
18:06Please give us an answer.
18:07Quiet.
18:08Quiet.
18:09Oh.
18:11Diane, Diane Carroll, not Diane.
18:13Oh, yes, sir.
18:14Richard, we've given you a chance in life.
18:16There's only one Jamaican who has really done movies like that.
