This is the Technical Difficulties, we're playing Citation Needed.

Joining me today, he reads books y'know, it's Chris Joel.

More of a value pack with each passing year.

Everybody's favourite Gary Brannan, Gary Brannan.

-Okay, just... just clarifying that. -Enunciate, then!

And the bounciest man on the internet, Matt Gray.

♪ I... didn't come up with anything to say here. ♪

In front of me I've got an article from Wikipedia and these folks can't see it.

Every fact they get right is a point and a ding.

And there's a special prize for particularly good answers which is...

And today we are talking about the Norwegian butter crisis.

Of all the crises, up there with Cuban missile, I always find.

I can't believe that it's not a margarine crisis.

Well, that actually clarifies what I was going to ask which is...

You can both technically have a point for that, but I'd like a bit more.

Is that a bit like an essay question where you're just repeating the title

Now the question I have to try and think of the answer of is,

-Because... -"Aargh! There's so much butter!"

-I'm going for too much butter. -Butterlanche!

Exactly the right amount, which freaked everybody out.

So if there's a butter crisis does that mean there's a milk crisis going on as well?

Yeah. You don't get a point for butter coming from milk,

But, yes, heavy rains during the summer affected the grazing of cows and reduced milk production.

So what happens if there is a shortage of butter?

Toast is awful, it's just dry with a topping.

We're talking basic supply and demand here, there is less butter therefore…

Butter is more costly and only available to the crown heads of Europe.

I'm... I'm giving you a point for the first half of that answer.

Norway was gripped by smørpanikk which translates as...?

I can think of like a Norwegian panic scale

which is "nor-panic, smør-panik, lots of panic".

So, yes, it got to the point where a single pack of imported Lurpak butter…

Cost, oh, you know what, we get to do Price is Right rules here.

-Here is a pack of butter. -Here is a pack of butter.

-It does not specify. -Because it does depend on the use,

because if it's unsalted that's more your bakers who are going to be throwing money at it.

Oh, no, this is... this is very much dietary butter.

Dietary butter, there's a butter diet now?

Slice it like cheese and put it on toast.

-1,000 krone. -Oh, s***, we're doing it in krone?

No, we're not doing it in krone, I don't have a calculator here.

Yeah, that's more or less 100 quid, so…

I'm going to say the equivalent of 25 quid.

I was going to say 100 quid, but he's already got that, so let's say £150 or 1,500 krone.

Gary is correct, £32 for a small pack of butter.

Yeah. It's about the same as you pay in Saino's now for Lurpak.

So why did this not get resolved by... by the free hand of capitalism?

Because the free hand of capitalism had too much butter on it,

They could pass the butter but they couldn't pick up the corners.

has just summed up everything that's wrong with the world, Gary.

Why did they not just import more butter?
