English TV game at final round giving 200.000 pounds for the last 2 players, an Australian farmer and a priest. After having answered all questions and having a deadlock, the presenter asks the players to write a small poem in 5 minutes. The only precondition will be to include the word Timbuktu, (the African capital of Mali). The countdown starts and the contestants are ready in 5 minutes sharp.

First goes the priest reading his little verses:

I was a father all my life
have no children, no wife
I read the Bible through and through
on my way to Timbuktu

Everybody starts the cheers. They all believe he is the winner. But then it is the farmer's turn. He starts reading out:

Tim and I to Brisbane went
met three women, cheap-to-rent
but they were three and we were two..! .
so, I booked one and Tim booked two!!!
