Topics including Paul McCartney, real ale, hotel leaflets and coat hangers. Room 101, S7, E4. Frank Skinner, Vicky McClure, Sandi Toksvig and Josh Widdicombe.
I could just watch Vicky McClure smiling and laughing for half an hour, just because she's good at it, and to inoculate myself for Line of Duty, where she does neither, and she really should.
There was a massive missed opportunity to do a bit from Craig Ferguson where he would say "let's check in with Paul McCartney" and then he shows a picture of Angela Landsbury lol
@Shannon Fraser Sandi spells her name with an (i). Probably coz Sandi's not a beach or desert, they are both sandY very sandy. Anyway shagon faster remember be more attentive in english class, actually be more attentive in all classes about reality, ignore all religitard classes there's no need or point hearing about 2000 year old childish fantasies.
I wish more people would understand the importance of understanding exponential growth. It’s everywhere. Just think of COVID or wealth distribution. So learning about logarithm is very useful I believe.
I think this was a very wholesome episode, specially when Vicky lowered the barstool for Sandy was a very very nice little unscripted thing that just happened. This show amongst Qi and WILTY I think are very family friendly because there is a bit for everyone in it and you can watch it with the whole family and have a good old laugh together.

If Sandy spent more time outside I bet she would find a use for the knowledge of how a ox-bow lake is formed, Especially if she's going upriver in a boat. Some people don't think learning about gravity is important . Some people are stupid.
Oml Vicky McClure is such an angel. Honestly I’m in love with this woman she should be considered a national treasure! What a beautiful, kind hearted soul. 💛💛
That sounds a bit extreme. She’s a nice enough person, but you shouldn’t love someone to the point you can no longer function. Always love yourself first. 🙂
@VampireAlienWerewolfZombieFromHell Well, her voice is because it's an adopted accent. She's Danish, and it's very common. So that's either racist or just odd. As for ruining QI, I can't stand Stephen Fry so I'm glad she's doing it, because I'm actually watching it now. And where to start with the "pointless feminist agenda". That's just so stupid it's funny. You can call it an agenda if it's an organisation doing it, perhaps, but when it's one person's opinion/belief, calling it pointless OR an agenda is bizarre, but calling it both is laughable.
I hate this idea that there were all these things that I learned at school and they were a waste of time.... I heard it all the time at school. Why do we need to know this or that. Sandi Toksvig hosts QI which is about all these esoteric subjects that people may not know the details about so she has made a bit of a living out of that.. It would be odd if in school the teachers said 'ok who wants to be a tv personality and comedian when they grow up?. Ok Sandy we have a special curriculum for you..'.
100%. Otherwise we may as well spend 2 years learning to scan prices at a checkout or how to use a broom efficiently or answer a telephone at a service centre. I wonder where Josh and Sandi were when they missed the how to be funny lesson
The problem with this argument is there aren't that many jobs going as host of QI. No one in my year at school ever went on to host QI, quite a lot went on to stack shelves.
Unfortunately Sandy, the point of unnecessary school subjects isn't always about _learning_ the information so much as developing the ability _to_ learn, and to critically think.
Good episode😊👍. Teaching kids how to spell is still relevant. We write things fast and don't have time to spell check. If you want to be taken seriously learn how to spell! I hope I spelled this correctly😉
From what I remember about Sandi's guesting on Desert Island Discs, most of the obscure knowledge she had came from how encouraging her father was about learning current and global affairs. I guess what Sandi referring to here is how some lessons are impractical but can be a matter of grave importance to students who will never use them in real life applications.
@ash thomas How's it goin? Does your mummy know you don't attend school? Education is extremely important, you should tell your mummy that the nasty teachers are "hurting" you, she might protect you. Good luck 🤞
Oh those eyes…❤️ I took Vicky McClure out for a lovely, romantic dinner at a top fish restaurant in London. It was like the entire evening she was just staring directly into my sole…. 🐠
Problem with spell checkers is that they get it wrong... They use U.S. spellings 90% of the time & when you want to make your spelling largely internally rigourous (rigorous for others), then it becomes a real hassle to fix all of the time. Using 'e's before '-able' suffixes for example is a suggested fix in the English language, but we're never going to get a full push for it - as we're all so dissociated from one another now. Just let us spell how we wish to spell - I want Anglo-Norman 'u's in my words (e.g. creatour, surveyour, etc.), it's not that difficult to understand/conceptualise.
I think the problem with Paul McCartney is that he should have stopped when Wings stopped.I mean watching him painfully sing Hey Jude at the 2012 Olympics was awful.His need to keep on going and not bow out quietly and do shoe adverts like Ringo is what is annoying enough is enough regardless of what he’s done in the past ...
No way! I got to see him live a couple of years ago and he blew everyone away. The only thing I think he should do is maybe do fewer concerts to rest his voice. But yeah, he's come out with some good music since Wings, Memory Almost Full comes to mind.
If Josh had to train himself to like tasteless British Lager he clearly isn't a natural beer drinker. Stick to this rule, Josh, and you won't go far wrong: Czech Lager English Ale Irish stout Drink mass produced lager and you will end up Sadder Budweiser
KPOPFANBOYUK well, we've certainly heard from the world beer expert now!! Though I have to say, I think pretty much everyone in the world would disagree with that statement...
...wow. I didn't think I was capable of losing so much respect for someone so quickly without a crime. I genuinely think she should be replaced for this.
IoEstasCedonta as far as I know....I remember her doing number 73 which was a children’s program in the 80, And she wasn’t good in that...I have zero idea as to why and how she has stayed on television all this time.
This show used to be good. The original format was one person, but of course it depended on the guest as to whether it was good or not . Then it turned into three guests.......over the years the show has got worse. Silly, boring superficial and politically correct nomination and the guests now use it to showboat for more work by crow barring their stand up routine in.
Sandi Toksvig should maybe retire the whole 'I'm from Denmark' thing. Her mother was English. She went to school in Guildford and studied at Cambridge. Her entire career has been carried out in the UK. She's more English than Prince Phillip. She's 68, so has lived in England for at least 56 years. That's not 'from Denmark'.
Being born in Denmark to a Danish father, growing up speaking Danish? Of course she's from Denmark, living her adult life in Britain doesn't invalidate that. i'm "from Britain" even if I upped sticks today and spent the rest of my life somewhere else.
I disagree with josh on BOTH. Musical criticisim regardless of who is questioned is to be encouraged and real ale is phenomenal. I am not a fan of the beatles music and he is overrated as a musician IMO.
That was not of what he was speaking. Your comment about his music was honest musical criticism and that’s fine. What Josh was criticizing was people making mean personal comments about Mr. McCartney as a person.
Boring episode. Boring nominations. Boring people. I rarely see an episode of this show now that has three guests that aren’t annoying. Showboating their stand up...or being overly “nice”. The original format was much better but, of course depended on the the quality of the single guest....but it allowed them to explain their reasons as to why they felt strongly about something.
Sure, freeing hundreds of thousands of slaves, or saving billions of lives by inventing penicilin is on par with CO-writing a few catchy diddies. The brits usually over-estimate the Beatles impact anyhow. Except for some American hype, as they always do, little was noticed outside of Britain but the music. Only impact on society they made over the Channel was the haircuts pretty much.
+ROY F Wasn't the comment in the show about Frank though? I can't recall exactly, so I guess it's possible you are correct, it's been a while and I'm not watching it again.
Oh my god he didn't do anything bad to Phil Collins, Phil Collins overreacted, like Paul's supposed to be grateful to Phil asking him to autograph his book, like some sort of 12 year old fanboy. Esp considering he'd met Paul McCartney before, it's not like it was his first time meeting him. He'd met Paul at least once before if not more than once. If I was Paul I'd have joked about it too. Nothing to get his panties in a wad about though.
“Also, if it ever rains two-dimensionally...”
What a brilliant little line.
I love Frank skinner. I wish they brought back room 101
"Did they click"
"Well they got on"
I love how quick witted British comedy is.

Haven’t watched yet but I’ll bet that was Sandi. I can hear her saying it 😂. Let’s see if I’m right 😀
Nope! I was wrong 😂😂
Yes, because witty comments are totally exclusive to british comedy
I could just watch Vicky McClure smiling and laughing for half an hour, just because she's good at it, and to inoculate myself for Line of Duty, where she does neither, and she really should.
Vicky McClure is so beautiful and seems a good laugh. She always comes across really well in interviews, love her in Line of Duty ❤

Been to one of these, filming actually took like 3 hours! They cut so much stuff off for the tv.

Still not complaining.
Paul McCartney lookalikes should have shown a pic of Angela Lansbury.
he's dead right about the real ales....almost all of them are rotten and when you order a lager in these pubs they look down at you
She is so right pointless things at school is the most irritating thing that has ever been created!
Yes, let’s stop teaching science and maths because some people won’t do anything more than work out how much dole they have left
To be fair that's a phenomenal forehead
Josh couldn't be more right about Paul McCartney.
Unfortunately Sandy, the point of unnecessary school subjects isn't always about _learning_ the information so much as developing the ability _to_ learn, and to critically think.

Definitely not. Clive is funny

And a clown berates people for what he does.
Barstools are the height they are so as when the average person is sitting they're close to the same height as a standing person.
It's so when your sitting at a bar you're not below the bar hence the name BAR stool
@@juandiego9164 And the bar is taller than a normal table because it's used by people who are standing...

Or week never?

bob hawke aussie PM could do this and held the world record
"Pointless things you learn at school", says someone who hosts not one but two TV shows revolving around obscure knowledge...
From what I remember about Sandi's guesting on Desert Island Discs, most of the obscure knowledge she had came from how encouraging her father was about learning current and global affairs.
I guess what Sandi referring to here is how some lessons are impractical but can be a matter of grave importance to students who will never use them in real life applications.
