I love this program. I love Sandi I actually named my Puppy after her. They have very similar characteristics: funny, tiny, cheeky and great heart. ❤😂
Ive loved Sandy since No 73 back in the 80s it must have been. She has a way about her and i knew she was one of the few people who could carry the show after stephen left.
Yes, same. She's fantastic. I still remember Save the children dropping her when she came out. That must have been terrible for her.
the knowledge of Stephen Fry and his ability to recount it accurately inspired me to continue learning through out my life ( although just turning 60 I find myself more studios than ever ) originally history and Christianity but also biology and technology/science thankyou Stephen.
So not Stephen Jay Gould, or Carl Sagan? Or Bill Nye?
You must realize the show is highly scripted
@@zapkvr So yes, Stephen is highly intelligent. He is also extraordinarily well read and erudite, able to speak intelligently, and entertainingly, on a very wide range if topics
@@zapkvrtheyre experts in their feilds theyre not general knowledge buffs which Stephen fry is. Carl sagan should inspire one to learn astronomy but Stephen fry inspires general knowledge. In a fun way.
@@zapkvrit is but he also has an almost identical memory and a huge amount of knowledge.
So miss Sean Lock.
Rip
i stll cant believe hes dead its like Rik Mayall
So? Not much then.
He was just so quick witted, have watched his clips over and over, still makes me laugh! miss him xx
@@zapkvrfkwit
Always enjoy , a great show. Thank you
14:30 min mark...This happened to me and my mum ! I lost my brother [Scott] in 2008 and like Stephen I too can not bring myself to delete his contact details. Whilst waiting at the hospital once with my mum I stumbled across late brother's details so I cheekily said to mum "Let's ring Scotty !" and so we did.
( Bear in mind this took place about 6-7 years after brother's passing ).
Ring, ring...ring, ring..."hello" ! OH ! wasn't expecting it to be answered so was already thrown. "Ummm, is Scott there please ?" I asked in all silliness with my mum laughing beside me. Well fuck me what happened next had all 3 of us, mum, me & the mystery caller, wetting our pants with laughter !!
After asking for Scott, the response I got from the other end was ; "Speaking"...!! 👀 !!! 😂
Short story long, just a helluva coincidence in the end. We ALL had a good chuckle after we explained what we were doing and my 'new' brother Scott even invited us to stay if we were ever in town ❤
Long Live Dead Contacts 😅
That's really funny 🤣🤗
Just because it happened to you, so it's familiar, doesn't make it funny.
@@michaelhendricks9462 I love it when miserable people join in with the comments.
Well done for piping up and getting involved👍🤗
@@wavydavy9816 I agree what a sour puss that person above is! I bet no one living or dead ever rings him!!
Lovely story!❤
I thoroughly enjoyed this. I feel smarter for having watched this.
-An American
😊 Me too - Scotland.
@@Mollypopithelen Same here even more so with Contronyms- Cumbria, England
Maybe share your location, instead of "America" as if proclaiming for all Americans. I'm sure we don't agree on everything
-A different American
From the "midwest" aka Minnesota and Missouri 😂
Why has nobody mentioned that "Pleasure Gauge" yet? Lol absolutely hilarious addition 😂😂 The giant tortoise discussion is the most hilarious thing, how David genuinely laughs... oh... outside the Acropolis song...🎉😂😂 "A cloak that covers acts of murder" excellent description Mr Einstein. Jack Whitehall showing a proper asskissing😂
I was a lumberjack for fifteen years in Pennsylvania. The very real danger is, when you cut down a tree a branch will fall out of it or it will knock a branch out of another tree as it goes over, and that branch will fly back at where you are standing.
I have watched this beginning multiple times and it never fails to break me up into out-loud peals of laughter.
Alan: Is there a film about it?
Stephen: Not to my knowledge.
Alan: Well then i'm in trouble.
Great compilation! My dream team must be the one with Phil Jupitus, Dara O'Brian, Bill Bailey😂
When Stephen said "easier to do a handstand in the shower", I swear he sounded like the narrator from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy 🤣🐬
One of the audiobook versions (there are several -- I can think of at least four) is narrated by Stephen Fry.
If you mean the film version, he is the narrator!
@@pleaselookafterslugs I know. I love that movie 😁
The difference being that Hitchhiker's Guide didn't just "sound like Hitchhiker's Guide," it was also actually funny.
Um he is thr narrator! 😂
I'd listen to Stephen Fry recite the alphabet.
Oddly enough, when they were talking of deleting (or not being able to delete a person on their contact list), I actually forgot that they reuse those phone numbers. My Mum passed away and I couldn't delete her contact number. One day when I was really sad and missing her, I sent that number a text to that effect. I got a reply from a very kind person letting me know that I have the wrong number. So, I explained and they were so kind and told me that anytime I feel sad and miss Mum, I can send them a text and they'll be happy to talk to me. 😊
Funny to see Sandy as a guest in the first clip! Little did she know she would be presenting years later
While nobody will replace Fry, I must say Sandy is a great host. I cant imagine anyone else doing it better, maybe Ayoade would be okay, but his humour can be quite dry, in any case, Sandy does a top job, especially as she has had quite a fascinating life and as such quite a reserve of knowledge even without the QI elves, just like Fry
@@mjfan653 Richard Osman would be great.
@@rory4605 I would take Michael Palin or John Cleese ahead of Osman any day.
@@pseudonayme7717Palin was going to be the host at the beginning with Fry and Alan as permanent guests. He took up travelling.
She planned it from the start
@12:08 "The man who never was" was not involved with the Normandy invasion.
That plan was used in preparation to the invasion of Sicily
Jeeves would despair of Steven's fashion choices
I can't believe the stuff his stylist puts on his body. Have Stephen ever even seen a mirror?
@deborahchasteen3206 it's a comedy show. He's supposed to look ridiculous.
I wonder if Alan ever got his motorbike back 😅
I checked. No. DVLA says is was untaxed as of 1st June, 2004.
i enjoyed that guys was fascinating
I can relate to the guy forgetting his age. It changes every year so it's not that easy. I know my date of birth and work it out from there.
I too got it wrong the Australian CAA sent me letter telling me I was a year younger than I told them.
I decided to forget after I turned 35 bc after that, it was just a depressing number
Youre all weird. I can't forget how old I am. I've had this condition since I was seven
I was a year older for a whole year somehow just got it into my head I was 42 and completely missed out being 41 and then I was 42 for two years so when I turned 43 I kept forgetting I wasn't still 42 ... lol!
I have the same problem, but fortunately my birthday is the 4th of Janurary 2000, so it's quite easy to work out from there
Ahh this would be perfect if it weren't so short!
It would be even better if some of it was funny!
But I get the "short" thing, I turned it off and went looking for something better in about 42 seconds.
I love this so much, I am trying to share its brilliance with friends & family without much success. Some guests are clearly out of their depth but most are either brilliant or funny, some both
Alan's not wrong about the word "Shapesmith." It should come back. Sounds *way* cooler than "Personal Trainer" does!
Shapesmith is probably not used as a cover for drug dealer as often.
Shapesmith is a character on the Amazon show Invincible
If you like the word use it. You don't need other people to use it as well. Just means you'll need to explain what you're saying to others alot more :)
My heart hurts every time I see Sean Lock
Same
You only take 1 stone crab claw at a time. If you took both the crab would be defenseless and starve
I was wondering about that. Thank you.
What happened to the man who never was?
The identity of "the man who never was" was a closely guarded secret until 1998, when it was discovered that he was called Glyndwr Michael. His grave in Huelva, Spain (near the beach at Punta Umbria) now uniquely carries both his fictional and real names.
Sue is constantly brilliant. If there is any present moment, she's being funny in it.. constantly
Really? For some reason I absolutely hate her... she seems intellectual but when she talks I can just feel room temperature intelligence. In stark contrast to Sandy, when she talks I feel like I should wear a bow tie or straighten my non existant jacket, I want to impress Sandy and I want to tell Sue to shut the fuck up. Her Great British Bake Off appearances are even worse.
Hi Sue
@@vaguelyright6833 😂
"Chariots of Fire" was obviously a result of them buying from the falafel tent at Glastonbury
In the film Airplane, the man who talks to the passenger flying the airliner was Robert Stack, not Lloyd Bridges, although he too, was in the film.
Love Sandi
It has happened now, that a person who had had one flying lesson, whilst having his second lesson, the trainer/pilot had a stroke and passed out and he was talked down by the control tower. This happened only last year (USA 2023).
Respect.
Stephen fry and Sean lock are very missed. They were amazing.
The man who never was was carrying plans about the invasion of Sicily, not Normandy.
I caught someone trying to pilfer my garden gate the other day. I didn't say shit, in case he took a fence (offence?). Ah, Fffit, never mind!!!
Mate, you're unhinged... Like your gate.
Stephen J. Gould held a door for me once. He was on the board of the National Portrait Gallery, where I worked. There’s a distinction for you!
The reason we dont have mixer taps in England is because hot water comes mainly through a copper tank when being heated whereas cold water mainly comes through plastic pipes so is more fresh as it is drinking water..!
To clarify, the above is meant to describe pre-brexit life. Obviously after Brexit, the hot water tank and tap were eliminated altogether and replaced by the heat from the decay of an iceberg lettuce.
Our warm and cold water also come from separate pipes - doesn't stop leeding them into one tap. You can still get only (drinkable) cold water out of it.
That's not the reason. Mixer taps also have two taps one nfor hot one for drinking water at least in the kitchen. But the middle tap part is shared so that you can have either hot or cold or both together to make warm or like warm or quite hot but not scalding hot. And most people have mixer taps these days right? Even irish people got those in the 1980s.
@@Pippis78 sure if you want to play water lottery drinknig from what could be coming from the open tank in the loft that a rat has died in
@@captvimes Ok, I don't know how common such things are. Where I live all water comes from one source to all houses in an area and is stored in watertowers.
Not sure still what you meant. Drinking tap water in general?
When they were talking about airline pilots, I thought of "Sully" movie of the real life of a amazing man who was at the right place at the right time. Another Tom Hanks movie about a real life hero.
The thing about the Greek saying was wonderful
Love the Monopoly story but I don't get why after finding out about that the Germans still gave out monopoly boards 😂
Bill Bailey ❤
Really enjoyed the comment what If someone dead calls you-my mom never took dad's name off landline phone(he died at 47-she at 87&1!2)&called NYC,CT&MAat least2times a week-one babysitter took a msg frm a'man' with a very high voice
LOL! Stephen was born 2 years after me! LOL. Such a baby boy 💚
The tortoise story 1:19 is one of my fave QI stories...
Mine too simply hilarious 😂
I do wish that whilst talking about Alan Turing and, colossus that the brillant engineer who took the theory & actually built the machine was recognized ie a chap named Flowers.
Post Office Telephone Engineer. Correct.
Some small commercial passenger aircraft up to ten seat including the pilots seat are single pilot operate. There have been several case of pilots dying or passing out and a passenger having landed the aircraft successfully by instructions from a pilot via radio.
Bill Bailey.’That bald guy with the long hair!’
Oh Alan, you are so amusing......
It wasn't Turing who built Colossus, it was Thomas Flowers who worked for the telephone company..
Yes but Turing drew the plans for it, so it has to go down as a combined effort.
@@pseudonayme7717
No he didn't. the computer that he 'designed/drew' was the Bombe, not Collosus.
Wiki has :-
"It has sometimes been erroneously stated that Turing designed Colossus to aid the
cryptanalysis of the Enigma.(Turing's machine that helped decode Enigma was the
electromechanical Bombe, not Colossus.)
This video is a great face workout.
Yes, scowling at people who obviously think they're making jokes, because they're laughing constantly as they speak, while trying to figure out what makes them think they're so funny... that'll really work out your face muscles.
@@michaelhendricks9462 Who hurt you?
Jack Dee on ISIHAC is so friggin funny it is amazing. A very worthy replacement for Humph
Nobody could replace Humph but Jack Dee comes very close!
@@SpikeMoby Agree, he is very good. Literally the perfect replacement.
Samantha was eager to take Jack on after Humph... And ultimately very satisfied with him!
😉👍🏼
"I Swear I Had A Cat"?
Surely the French for innuendo would be suppositoire.
Nice!
The reason the UK has two taps (not everywhere but in most older buildings) is because hot water was traditionally stored in a tank in the attic where it was at risk of gathering dirt (from insects, rats, mice, etc.) and was therefore suitable for washing but not for drinking and therefore couldn’t be mixed with the cold water. You’re not supposed to use the taps whilst running if you want pleasant warm water, you’re supposed to pour a bowl of it.
Everything is NOW! The Golden Present.Your thoughts and beliefs create your own realities .
Except all the stuff you know happened in the past, and all the things you know you are going to do in the future.😁
No, if I could create a reality I'd create one where I was obscenely rich, 6ft tall, effortlessly slim and a natural blonde. None of those have been created in my reality as yet.
In the “How would you land a plane?” section Stephen claims that’s there has never been an example in commercial aviation where a passenger has had to land a plane;
United Flight 93 had to be brought down by passengers after the flight crew were murdered by the hijackers on 9/11. Unfortunately we all know how that ended.
FYI, not all segments have their own section in the video. All segments after the "all great men short" segment are contained in that one.
I read 1984 last year
2:45 OH MY GOD BILL BAILEY HAS A MASTODON SHIRT ON
respect +100
The UK two-tap dilemma: that is why the sink and plug exist. Put the plug in, fill up the sink with both cold and hot water, and it allows you to regulate the water temperature!
Yeah but most sinks aren't terribly clean. I'd almost rather risk boiling or freezing
That's also much slower and much more involved than simply mixing the temperatures within the single tap using two separate levers.
2:15 The Arthur Legend, I’ve heard this bedtime story before.
banana in tagalong (filipino) is saging
The Holy Family re-located to Britain around 37 AD and founded the first Christian church in the world, decades before Christianity reached Rome. Joseph of Arimathea, known in Britain as Saint Ilid, came from Aramea (Syria) and is buried in Bute Park, Cardiff.
Evidence?
Wow, true? How wonderful. There haas always been a lot of holes in what I have learned of religion.
@@thesmallerhalf1968Evidence of the whole period story, don’t you think so?
@@thesmallerhalf1968 A good place to start might be theBritainsHiddenHistory Ross TH-cam channel
That doesn’t sound legitimate.
I do love to laugh.
God i love bill 😂😂😂😂😂😂
"Is it the off switch?"
Good for now
I could do this right now
In the recording of the D-day discussion, the Secret Army had not come out of official secrets.
King Charles will be on the England money and I find this show educational and fun. Crab -arm grow back-might call it Dead Pool Crab.
It wasn't Los Alamos, it was Oak Ridge, Tennessee.
Hey friends . I guess I'll see y'all at the bar 🤣
Heat pumps are a thing all over europe and north america
I really fancy Jo' Brand. Am I a pervert? Cool!
1:07 Jacob Rees-Mogg will have something to say about that
Actually Apples logo came from the artist seeing a bite taken from an apple and seeing the pun in bite and byte like megabytes or terabytes
"Do you not want some points, or not?" isn't a double negative, it's a redundancy. "Do you not want some points?" is a rhetorical question implying that they do indeed want some points. "Do you want some points, or not?" would be an actual question with a choice of answers.
it was "Don't you not want points or not"
That feel when you tap your phone screen and the red line is almost across the bottom of the video ( ._.)
I would love to be sitting beside him he is so lovely. But I would love to be sitting beside Stephen before anyone I miss him
Italians shout ‘ bis’ also
I only understood it when I realised bisNonna is great grandmother, so grandmother, again! Bis!
If you know, you know!
1:29:30 There are cases in which defendants have attempted to get out of criminal charges by claiming that their actions were the result of epileptic seizures. In People v. Grant, 360 N.E.2d 809 (Ill. App. 1977), the court held that the act of striiking a police officer was involuntary, but the defendant could be held responsible if it was found on remand that his drinking prior to the incident was reckless and caused the seizure.
58:56 he was gonna say chinaman but stopped himself
that ol' country boy has huffed too much glue bro......
On the subject of phone calls from the dead around 14:58. I made a terrible mistake in my depressed state after my late wife passed, I was very very very low and could not face the outside world, I had lost the love of my life, my soulmate, and had turned to drink. I just withdrew and my pay and go phone had run out of credit. I was not very tech savvy back then, and desperately needed to speak to my son, and without thinking used her phone!! The poor man nearly had a heart attack as his phone rung showing Mum calling! I was so so sorry I could not apologise enough and fell into an even deeper depression. Life really is a bitch sometimes, then you do stupid things and make it worse.
Bis = twice as in biscuit (twice cooked) 🙃
There was actually an incident of a plane losing both pilot and copilot, Helios Airways Flight 522, though it was in 2005.
The whole plane lost air pressure, so there was nobody able to take control and be guided in
Dalai Farmer still wins the prize. RiP Sean Lock.
I think Jan Smuts was an exception
Did Dobby say executer and not executor?
He was called gwyndor Michaels
So no means no, but yes is better? :) Reflexes....heh. I kicked my doctor in the bollocks when he positioned himself poorly and checking my knee.
I happen to know Aramathea was the original name for Gilford.
ne ... pas, is NOT a double negative
They only take one claw not both
I NEARLY got that question right when Stephen said Joseph was named after plaice .......
But *then he wasn't called Joseph Fish after all* .
No wonder folk are confused by theology is all I can assume.
11:01 sounds more like David Mitchell
National Treasures (for me anyway, some may not agree): Stephen Fry, Bill Bailey, Vic Reeves (and Bob though wasn't in these clips) and of course Sean Locke
1:44:48 ... " in the 1800's the suspected killer was called ... Mr BEAN ... he failed on every attempt " ( seriously !? ) ... MR BEAN !?
41:25 Surely you can't be serious.
