So far, these have been the best part of 2021. Being able to watch episodes of a quiz show, from years ago, aired in a country I do not live in... that's the best thing about present day life.
I think it helps that their comedians tend to all know each other. I'm sure that can feel frustrating and cliquish if you're a young comedian trying to break into the business, but it means they tend to have a certain comfort and flow with each other.
@@susancarolan153 ; ...yet somehow gets lost in the pond. USA could never do such an informed, insightful and endearing program. I currently live in America and find them PROUD of their ignorance and xenophobia. If "education in power," then the general U.S. population are suffering such atrophy due to lack of use of critical -thinking and common sense, that such a fun, beautiful program could never be re-produced.
I wish he knew more about economics and politics and didn't just parrot the fashionable opinion on them. Like on his TH-cam channel David Mitchell's soapbox he tried voicing his opinion on subjects and half the comment section ripped him to pieces (eg he said if we stopped using chipboard there would be less waste, not thinking that chipboard was reusing waste, brings prices down, etc). I reckon everyone ripping him to pieces is why he stopped his channel.
I fall asleep to all these. I know them word-for-word. Richard Ayoade is brilliant in everything. My happiest sleep is listening to another country talk with accents (USA). Big Narstie doing Jimmy's laugh is spot on!
I absolutely love the chaos that Big Narstie brought to this quiz. Telling people (incorrectly) what shows they were in, driving Jimmy over the edge with the “Mo Farrah sign”, and other general tomfoolery..... who couldn’t love him? 😅😅 “BONG!!”
david mitchells face when he asks jimmy why he wont get something to sit on for the show...he looks so genuinely baffled and confused, its so fucking funny dkfjghjk
This is one of the best, and my personal favorite, episode of BFQ. Watched it a million times and Richards look at Big Narstie when he starts laughing is one of pure joy from an otherwise stoic guy. 22:03 Also, when Narstie calls Noel “Poncho”. Actually, everyone on this show meshes so well.
I agree. This episode had such great energy about it and I thought Big Narstie seemed so wholesome throughout. They all seemed so in tune with each other. I'd watch this cast every year if they got together for a quiz show or something of the like but since that's unlikely I'm just glad we all get to reexperience this brief moment in time as often as we like. Haha (:
It has taken a global pandemic and a sad life of lockdowns, etc. for me to discover these Big Fat Quiz shows and I tell you, it has been totally worth it.
@@Wabajak13 Damn now I want to watch that bit again, so sad no one timestamped it in the comment, not going to watch the whole thing again or skip through the entire thing and risk missing it by a second or two haha
OMG THIS is one of the absolute best episodes of all time. non stop brilliance. David Mitchell busting out with "NO I can't let that stand, it is a deficiency of calcium and a lack of vitamin D!".....had me rolling.
@@shakesfirst2443 There are far more obese people who are perfectly understandable, that doesn't have anything to do with it. And it's a little weird you went there.
@@crizznik2312 There are also morbidly obese people with so much fat on their face that they slur words, it's also why obese people are much more prone to sleep apnoea. It's very weird that ignorant idiots act like their ignorance is fact. Bet you deny climate change and refuse to wear a mask in a pandemic too.
@@shakesfirst2443 You don't know as a fact that him being obese is the reason for the way he talks, you are the one who acts like your speculation is a fact, not all obese people slur words, if there are obese people in the world that have difficulties in speech or health problems doesn't necessarily make it a fact that all obese people have those problems, calling someone else an idiot just because he mildly criticized you? how old are you?
EVERY year with noel there's this 'what do you mean', once it was puppet man, once it was because he was really tired, now it's at 1:30:45. It is amazing and I look forward to it whenever he's there
@@AWSum-uf4riwahahaha!!! Do you think everyone from Utah is a Mormon? Er, I mean, A Member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Ladder Day Saints? Because if you do, then you may be an idiot...
i'm on the round watching the re-ups again! The Ayoades are my favourite! Man i made so many gifs of the two from this single episode, their flirting was absolutely on point! ♥
I was surprised and disappointed that no one made a circumcision joke! Come on, it was right there! A sausage with the end bit off standing in for a Jewish newborn infant!
Dear Rikki, you are a blessing and an 😇 for uploading these! Obviously I've subscribed with the bell set to "all notifications"! Have a lovely week-end!
"or as world history will remember it, the final chapter" lmaooo me watching in 2021 and remembering that my last good year was 2017 👁👁 i'm not american nor british but i just learned to like these shows cos binging it for a week. thanks for the uploads
These shows are the only television programs that make me literally LOL when I’m all by myself. I can’t believe I only learned about how great British TV is like 2 years ago when I first found Time Team, then around a year ago I found out about Task Master and now within the last week I found this show. Noel Fielding is one of the funniest people I’ve ever seen and Richard Ayoade is a World Treasure.
46:11 😆😂🤣 THE IRONY OF ME BEING ON A “The Big Fat Quiz of Everything” BINGE ON CHRISTMAS DAY! I literally just heard of this show today by unintentionally clicking on a clip of the show. Now I have gone through a whole bunch of these. LMAO 😂
Hilarious, and fantastic that this id going on for so many years. Being from the Netherlands doesn't stop me in finding this one of the highlights of the tv year. We also have funny comedians but not enough to switch them up each year. Brilliant series.
It's wild to see Jimmy getting torn up by the contestants; in North America, he has a reputation of being an absolutely ruthless insult comic. I'd always thought of him as being intimidating and untouchable
maybe that's because back home everyone in the street can take him on, but in the states people are not as quick witted and so they think he is the master of comedy..
I wish american comedians could work together this well, these guys/gals know each other so well, I can only imagine what a party with all these brit comedians would look like.
each show is completely full of lovely people, but i can’t watch more than five minutes unless richard and/or noel and/or russell are present. i’ve spent hours testing this theory, and i’m ready to submit it for peer review.
Loving these during the summer heat here in Baja Mx, where anyone who can, stays inside during the day. 2 months more to go; thanks for the lovely shows!
It’s weird that in the thumbnail Noel looks simultaneously like both a witch hunter and the witch he’s hunting.
*Supernatural intensifies*
Honestly you could probably always describe hom exactly like that
Isn't he?
Or just a slightly more colorful Puddleglum
He looks like Darkwing Duck
So far, these have been the best part of 2021. Being able to watch episodes of a quiz show, from years ago, aired in a country I do not live in... that's the best thing about present day life.
I feel EXACTLY the same.
Agree!
This hits hard
This is how I also feel as an american.
SO TRUE. I found these a few days ago when I was bingeing Chelsea Peretti videos and life has improved immensely
How can British humor be both witty and silly, offensive and kind, fast-tempo and relaxed all at the same time? This is hilarious.
Classic british passive-aggresiveness for ya...
I think it helps that their comedians tend to all know each other. I'm sure that can feel frustrating and cliquish if you're a young comedian trying to break into the business, but it means they tend to have a certain comfort and flow with each other.

@@greatdayn4651 because it would be pointless, also American comedians have realized that podcasts are a better medium for comedy like this
There are only two things certain in life: death and Noel not being able to read Richard's handwriting
As history will remember it, "The Final Chapter"
*laughs in 2021*
was searching for this comment!!!
I was gonna make literally the same comment!
We are in Wes Cravens "The New Nightmare" part.
AND 2022!
Remember how we laughed in Marty McFly?
Feels pretty silly now, huh?
Richard and Noel are pure tv gold! 🔥
David was spot on when he said the world was headed for disaster... If he only knew what was coming 3 years later
Indeed
World is always heading toward disaster on human perspectives.
sister you had no idea
Hahahaha you had no Idea ... neither had I...
Now dealing with Boris scandals & resigning as PM.
Big Narstie being starstruck by David Mitchell was genuinely adorable. Even if he got the shows wrong
David Mitchell has that kind of face, you know it but not certain from where.
He does legitimately seem kind of under-educated.
@@tdata545 okay?
@@tdata545 He acts that way on every show I've seen him on. I don't like it because he seems kind of rude to others. He irritates me.
@@gaylebynumcardosa7034 Mitchell or Narstie?
I'm so glad the big fat quizzes hav hit a new wave of popularity. they are the best panel show in my humble opinion
Always loved these. Anything with Richard in it is gonna be good.
@@mtbthiccness3605
Yeah 2020 and 2021 without Richard/Noel were still great, but not nearly as good. Richard and Noel are so great together.
@@johnwrath3612 yea I watched all of the ones with them in it first honestly. Too good.
When he said it was a lack of vitamin c, I was ready to be outraged but luckily my spirit animal David Mitchell did what we all needed.
I love that he led with “I can’t let that stand...”
Were you personally offended by that because you have rickets?
yes, David Mitchell, the hero we need
The Prince of Pedants!
Richard and Noel are my favorite pairing ever, I love them beyond comprehension
Noels Darkwing Duck cosplay is on point!
I laughed out loud at that
Let's get non sequitur!
I love the way they deliberately throw the game.
I thought a where in the world is Carmen sandiego?
@@StefanBacon They were getting demolished anyways.

I understand zero of what he says.....unless Kathryn Ryan deciphers it straight after haha
He’s the kind of person you want to be friends with.

I understand about a quarter of what Big Narstie says, and that's only if I'm lucky
To be fair, he only seems to understand what everyone else is saying about half the time. Narstie is hilarious
You're not missing anything
@@bobbyabercrombie1483 Okay 😶
funny how the tables have turned...now its the brits that cant understand what someone else is saying

34:04 "We haven't got ANY snacks! 😠"
Every 30 seconds David says or does something that makes me love him even more 😂
It has taken a global pandemic and a sad life of lockdowns, etc. for me to discover these Big Fat Quiz shows and I tell you, it has been totally worth it.
The moment that David MItchell says "Mo Farah sign!" is the highlight of this one.
Edit: 50:37
I like how he has trouble forming it, too.
Saw the video last year when it was first posted, rewatching it now, and it's still as funny and unexpected and out of character for David. So good!

I understood Big Narstie the best when he spoke Spanish, and I hardly know Spanish.
What did he say?
I have no problem understanding the accent, it's being so obese he can't talk properly I'm having trouble understanding.

Noel and Richard are a gift to us all!
Big Narstie crying when he’s hungry is such a mood. What a sweetheart.
I'm obsessed with Noel and Richard's snack time
22:02 Richards shocked reaction to Narsties laugh and Jimmy’s quip is just perfect comedy gold 🤣😂🤣
EVERY year with noel there's this 'what do you mean', once it was puppet man, once it was because he was really tired, now it's at 1:30:45. It is amazing and I look forward to it whenever he's there
2017 seemed like such a sweeter, more peaceful time...

David in 2017: It's all gonna be vitamin deficiency and death!
Me, in 2021: welp
"Thank you Wizard Podium" got me 😂😂😂
My favourite bit 😂
Pairing Roisin with David was a good decision.
Jimmy's heart isn't made of stone. It's made of metal, wire, solenoids, relays, and pumps; like every other robot android.
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I would pay money to hear him shout error error error does not compute.
Pretty sure it's Geppetto's hand
Noel fielding makes this show every time he is on. When russell brand is on with him that is fire
actual literal fire, yes, complete and utter chaos
they're my favorite pair to watch too but honestly David Mitchell was hilarious this year (after Noel got distracted by the fidget spinner hahha)
i'm on the round watching the re-ups again! The Ayoades are my favourite! Man i made so many gifs of the two from this single episode, their flirting was absolutely on point! ♥
Just yesterday I started watching these and suddenly you upload more. Excellent coincidence.
Same lol
Algorithms sooooo weird
Richard is right, Harry did take the popcorn away seriously, then tried to soften the situation
Here bc I saw Noel Fielding and I missed him in the 2020 and 2021 BFQ
I love how genuinely delighted David looks during the ending bit.
Much like I judge if I've seen an episode of 8OO10C Does Countdown by Rachel's dress, I judge if I've seen the quizzes by Noel's outfit
I am so happy that David actually brought up the fact that the sausage was half-eaten. I was just going "why is no one mentioning this" to myself
I was surprised and disappointed that no one made a circumcision joke! Come on, it was right there! A sausage with the end bit off standing in for a Jewish newborn infant!
British people do panel shows so well

This is the most insane big fat quiz and I love it so much.
That is one of the better episodes! Love the show!
Neil getting so excited when Liam came on was precious ❤️❤️
Which one was Neil?
My niece is watching this tonight. She's been raised well. I love you, Meghan.
It's cute seeing that opening and David saying it was a disastrous year. And now here we are, let's go with nuclear winter for next year.
Noel as Darkwing Duck is amazing
Why does david mitchell look like he's about to break into tears when ranting about the letters falling down
Following British politics very closely the past 6 years would break the strongest men.
The joy I get from here his episode that I’ve watched a hundred times 🥰..t he tinsel sisters 🤣
"She should have bought a car, and got it waxed." -too funny!!
It's wild to see Jimmy getting torn up by the contestants; in North America, he has a reputation of being an absolutely ruthless insult comic.
I'd always thought of him as being intimidating and untouchable
Different values in comedy. In Britain you’d prefer to be the butt of the joke, in America you’re the one making others the butt of the joke
maybe that's because back home everyone in the street can take him on, but in the states people are not as quick witted and so they think he is the master of comedy..
Aw it's so cute to hear people complain about how the year was...while watching this from 2021.
If you only knew...
26:08 the start of the 'rickets and scurvy ' chat❣😉😸 too funny...
Love David Mitchell so much, Angry Logic Man is the hero we all need
The banter on this episode is just top notch
Some amazing david mitchell rants... and watching this in 2023 knowing what comes after 2017 is funny
I wish american comedians could work together this well, these guys/gals know each other so well, I can only imagine what a party with all these brit comedians would look like.
That mom chasing the kids was pure gold! Oh my sweet Jesus! Lol hahah 😆 😅 🤣
points to himself enthusiastically: "I put Jedwood!"
Can we just all agree Jon Snow is a God Damn British National Treasure? I am American and love his bits on the these shows!
its really endearing how Katherine kept asking Jimmy questions either simply to get him involved or to tee him up to a joke :)
Richard’s shirt is the most pleasing pop of yellow
Never not well dressed
never noticed that before. It`s true the man who does stand up comedy sitting down, has to stand all through the Big Fat Quiz :)
this is one of the best casts they've had for this, really funny one
I love watching Catherine and Roisin become best friends over their pop culture knowledge. ❤❤❤
each show is completely full of lovely people, but i can’t watch more than five minutes unless richard and/or noel and/or russell are present. i’ve spent hours testing this theory, and i’m ready to submit it for peer review.
I’m the exact same! Though I prefer Richard x Noel, it’s Noel that’s the key element for me. If he’s not in it, I’m just not paying attention.
Big Narstie’s voice sounds like a distorted ransom message
Watching this on 25.02.2022, whilst simultaneously reading about the war in Ukraine, and it is unbelievable how much they predicted.
omg that polar bear is so freaking cute! I love his voice and expressions!
I think this is my favourite big quiz. Constant laughs! 😂
I love this because its as if Im hanging out with friends, if I had any :'(
Roisin Conaty what a babe to behold♥
Big Narstie called Noel, Nigel Planner. Lol I loved the Young Ones.
The bendy straw in Narstie's mug is killing me.
A sippy cup would have been insulting
1:11:30
Noel is so soft, he melts my heart 😪❤️
Mitchell in absolute stellar form here
Loving these during the summer heat here in Baja Mx, where anyone who can, stays inside during the day. 2 months more to go; thanks for the lovely shows!
“Making Britain a fucking dump…”
As an American I felt this so hard. Same David. Same.
Richard learned not to leave his tray of snacks unattended
Anyone else think Noel's clothing in this episode makes him look like Orko from Masters of the Universe?
Dark wing duck
That polar bear is the best thing I've ever seen
I think Noel Fielding would be really pleased to know that his outfit here looks like the fashion collab of Grimace and the Hamburglar.
i love big nartsie's chaotic energy lol
"so we're just ruling out poltergeists ...?"
“THE DOG IS PISSING!!!” xD
Big Narstie was so genuine and delightful! Absolutely charming chaos
It’s funny watching this in 2021 and hearing them complain about how the world is ending. “Aw, you really have no idea” lol
Been waiting for this! Thanks for the upload! 🎉
1:21:28 - man looks like the love child of Daniel Radcliffe and Jack Whitehall 😂😂😭
