President Obama and Gordon Brown are shown a time machine which can see 100 years into the future.
They both decide to test it by asking a question each.
President Obama goes first: "What will the USA be like in 100 years time?"
The machine whirls and beeps and goes into action and gives him a printout, he reads it out:
"The country is in good hands under the new president, crime is non-existent,there is no conflict, the economy is healthy.
There are no worries."
Gordon Brown thinks, "It's not bad, this time machine, I'll have a bit of that" so he asks: "What will Britain be like in 100 years time?"
The machine whirls and beeps and goes into action, and he gets a printout.
But he just stares at it.
"Come on, Gordon," says Obama, "Tell us what it says."
"I can't! It's all in Urdu!"
