* An alternate monologue was recorded following the recording of the monologue aired as part of the show. This was supposedly to allow for the (presumed unlikely) result of 'no' in the referendum. It wasn't the same length as the 'yes' monologue and seemed very unfinished. This monologue was aired at the end of the show during the credits with the aid of a split screen arrangement. A red version of the 2000 network ten advert was used as a background, with two small slightly overlapping screen areas, one with the vision of the alternate monologue, and the other with the usual show closer.
