Mick had already won $500,000 on the Irish version of "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" but he had only one lifeline left. His million dollar question was: "Which bird does not build its own nest? Robin, Sparrow, Cuckoo, or Thrush." Mick didn't have a clue, so he used his lifeline to phone his friend Paddy, back home in Ballygoon. Paddy cried, "Dat's simple, Mick! The cuckoo." "Are ye sure, Paddy?" asked Mick. "I'm frookin' sure!" said Paddy. Mick the TV presenter, "My final answer is: the cuckoo." The presenter screamed, "That's right! Mick, you've won $1 million!" The next night, Mick invited Paddy down to the pub to buy him a drink. "Tell me, Paddy? How in God's name did you know that a cuckoo that doesn't build its own nest?" "Sheeet!" laughed Paddy. "Any fool knows a frookin' cuckoo lives in a clock!"
