00:00What celebrity do I get mistaken for?
00:02Daisy Edgar-Jones sometimes.
00:03No, no, she gets mistaken for me.
00:06Yes.
00:11Hello, I'm Paul Meskell.
00:12I'm here with my friends from the cast of Gladiator 2.
00:15And we are going to play a game
00:17about how well we know each other for Vanity Fair.
00:20Did they prompt you or did you just make that up on the fly?
00:23Okay, question.
00:24What's my least favourite day of the week?
00:26Tuesday.
00:27Oh, you're writing it down?
00:28Yeah.
00:29You just wrote Tuesday.
00:32Actually, when you said Tuesday, I was like...
00:35I'm going to give everybody a point for that.
00:38I think I deserve a winning observance.
00:41What was the name of my character in Normal People?
00:44Callum.
00:45No, you're out, you're out.
00:47Conall.
00:48Conall, Conall, what's your answer?
00:49Connor.
00:51Incorrect, two points.
00:53You got it wrong, Callum's a different character.
00:55So the answer is Conall.
00:57He only plays characters with the letter C in the name.
01:00Famously.
01:01What's number one on my bucket list?
01:04And don't look at my answer.
01:08No peeking.
01:09You're not going to be able to see that.
01:12Yeah.
01:13Okay, that was very long.
01:14Yes, Joseph.
01:15Is it to see the Great Wall of China?
01:17No, but it's in that family of thought.
01:20To go and see something.
01:22Okay, Rajasthan.
01:24Go to Rajasthan for a tour.
01:28Travel to South America.
01:29I've never been to South America.
01:30I'm from South America.
01:32I get three points.
01:36I was born in South America.
01:3817 points for Pedro.
01:41I think Joseph is the only person who gets a point there
01:43because everybody just jumps on his bandwagon.
01:45He said to visit the Great Wall of China,
01:46which is nowhere near South America.
01:48Think about bucket list and he came up with a travel to.
01:51By the way, where in South America?
01:54I want to do a big tour of everywhere.
01:55Because it's very different.
01:56I know it's very different.
01:57When's my birthday?
01:59February.
02:01That's the 7th.
02:02The 4th.
02:039th.
02:05The 1st.
02:06The 2nd.
02:072nd.
02:08Point to Joseph.
02:10That's all my questions.
02:12Paul is motivated to catch up on points.
02:15He's coming for you.
02:17He's coming for you.
02:18What is my full name?
02:20Oh, Pedro.
02:23My God.
02:24So, Jay?
02:27Jose?
02:28Juan.
02:28Pedro Pascal something something.
02:30No.
02:31Nope.
02:31Pedro Maria.
02:33Jose Maria Pascal.
02:34This is a lot.
02:34It's Jose Pedro Balmaceda Pascal.
02:37Nobody gets points.
02:37Jose Pedro Balmaceda Pascal.
02:39I said Jose.
02:40I said Jose.
02:41You said Jose, but then you put it behind Pedro,
02:44which eliminates...
02:45That's absolute bullshit.
02:47The question is, who is my favourite actor?
02:51It's me.
02:53That you're my favourite actor?
02:54Yeah, you said that to me once.
02:55I think it's going to be...
02:57Do you remember?
02:58I said you were...
02:59I said I thought you were special.
03:00Oh.
03:01And special can mean a lot of things.
03:05Who's your favourite actor?
03:07I think we just have to shoot from the hip here, guys.
03:11Marlon Brando?
03:12Is it Harrison Ford?
03:15Let's go with Harrison Ford.
03:16Because he's the most...
03:18My favourite actor is...
03:19As a kid.
03:20Yeah.
03:21What job did I have before I became a full-time actor?
03:25Dancer.
03:26You were a great dancer.
03:27Go, go, go.
03:28Come on, come on, come on.
03:29You guys remember.
03:30Come on.
03:31You were dancing in Spain.
03:32Come on.
03:33In New York.
03:34In Spain, though, no?
03:35You were dancing in New York.
03:36In Spain.
03:37I did dance for a summer in Spain,
03:38but really, what's the answer on the card?
03:40Come on.
03:41You were dancing in New York.
03:42You were a full-time dancer.
03:44The answer on the card is...
03:47Waiter.
03:48Okay, but Joe...
03:49Waiter and a dancer.
03:50Fred gets it, Fred gets it.
03:51Why does he get the answer?
03:52Because I was dancing,
03:53I was saying the words,
03:54and then you saw my mouth move,
03:56and you said it.
03:57It doesn't say dancer on the card.
03:58Here's the pen.
03:59Thank you, darling.
04:00How many languages do I speak?
04:01You speak seven, eight, maybe.
04:03You speak French.
04:04But most likely seven.
04:05Once he gets going, he's on a roll.
04:07Joe's got it.
04:08He's full, endless range.
04:09Okay, bonus?
04:10What are they?
04:11You speak Italian.
04:12Yes.
04:13You speak...
04:14Danish.
04:15Danish, Swedish, Norwegian.
04:16Yes.
04:17You also speak French and...
04:19Spanish.
04:20A little bit of Spanish.
04:21And?
04:22English.
04:23French.
04:24And German.
04:25German.
04:26And German.
04:27He needs a bonus.
04:28Okay.
04:29This is a slaughter.
04:30Oh, for which film did I have a gym built in my garage?
04:33Wonder Woman.
04:34Yes, very good.
04:35Two, that's one each.
04:36Okay.
04:37We both guessed that.
04:38All right.
04:39If I were to take this cast on a vacation,
04:42where would I take you?
04:43Ibiza.
04:44Ibiza.
04:46Somebody was paying attention to Connie Nielsen
04:48very closely during the shooting of this movie.
04:52Okay.
04:53What is my favorite curse word in Danish?
04:56Fuck.
04:57No.
05:00Nobody is going to get that, Connie.
05:02It's very simple.
05:03It's the same word in every language.
05:05Shit.
05:06Satan.
05:07Satan.
05:08Satan.
05:09I've never had somebody...
05:12Fuck Satan.
05:13Fuck Satan.
05:16What is my weirdest on-set habit?
05:19I haven't noticed you do anything weird on set.
05:22I haven't.
05:23Like in terms of...
05:24I mean, other than being his character.
05:26Yeah, I'm trying to think about what wasn't weird.
05:28Yeah, it was just a general sheer of weirdness.
05:31Yeah, I would say being yourself.
05:33Yeah.
05:34No.
05:35Me.
05:36Five points for Pedro.
05:38Hello, Fred.
05:41Oh, okay.
05:42What is my favorite reality TV show?
05:44Survivor.
05:46Alone?
05:47Nope.
05:48You and I have talked about reality TV.
05:50Below Deck.
05:51I love that, but this is not the one.
05:53Married at First Sight.
05:55Real Housewives.
05:56Selling Sunset.
05:57I like Real Housewives.
05:58Is it A&E stuff?
06:00Yeah, it's the competitive cheapskates.
06:03It's people that really save money on everything.
06:06Oh, that's good.
06:07A&E.
06:08A&E.
06:09Yeah, so you're going to have to give points to Pedro.
06:11There's like this amazing guy that made a stew out of fish bones,
06:15and I just thought it was incredible.
06:17What is my go-to crafty snack?
06:22Fred.
06:25Can we identify...
06:27I don't remember crafty on this job.
06:29Savory and sweet?
06:32Coffee and biscuits.
06:35I'll say it was a drink on this one.
06:38It was a smoothie.
06:39You liked a smoothie.
06:41Do you remember?
06:42I do remember that.
06:43He liked that salad bowl for a moment.
06:45I'm thinking of something specific.
06:47That emergency that you put in the water.
06:49Oh, that's very good.
06:51For the heat.
06:53The pink one.
06:55Pink and yellow.
06:57Who in the cast would I ask to bail me out of jail?
07:00Pedro.
07:02And because it's Pedro, he deserves points for it.
07:05He doesn't even need to say it.
07:08What is my favourite sport?
07:11Skateboarding.
07:13Come on!
07:14Two points, two points.
07:16We're back.
07:17We're so back.
07:18It was the correct answer, but it was also the pace of the answer.
07:22It deserves another point.
07:24What celebrity do I get mistaken for?
07:26Daisy Edgar-Johns sometimes.
07:28No.
07:29You do?
07:30No, she gets mistaken for me.
07:32Hold on!
07:33I'm writing it down.
07:37That was the two letters.
07:39Yeah, two letters.
07:40J.T.
07:41Oh, who's J.T.?
07:43Justin Timberlake.
07:46I get that sometimes.
07:48What is my favourite film franchise?
07:51Indiana Jones.
07:53No.
07:55And no to Star Wars.
07:57No.
07:58No to Harry Potter.
08:00No.
08:01Marvel?
08:03Franchise.
08:04No.
08:05Narnia.

08:11Do you know what a franchise is?
08:12Yeah.
08:13Okay.

08:15No.
08:17This is a good question.
08:18Superman?
08:20No.
08:21Lord of the Rings.
08:22Yes.
08:23I'm very...
08:24Points for Paul.
08:26I'm so ashamed.
08:28What is my favourite British slang word?
08:31What's my favourite...
08:32But you can't tell the truth on this.
08:34Yes, I can.
08:35Can you?
08:36Yeah.
08:37And it's your favourite one, too.
08:38We're going to say bad words?
08:39Yeah.
08:40We're going to say ****.
08:42It's not that.
08:43It's not that.
08:44No.
08:45It's not that.
08:46Then you're lying!
08:47Bel-end.
08:48Bel-end.
08:49That's a good one.
08:50I have failed you.
08:51I have failed you.
08:52So sublime.
08:53What does it mean?
08:54Yeah.
08:55I clearly do not know you guys.
08:56Thank you very much.
08:57Joe, I'm sorry.
08:58It's alright.
