This is one of the earliest HIGNFY episodes I've found yet, but I prefer all of this 30 year old news to anything in the past 5. I can of guess THIS is the "Brown Suit" Paul sometimes calls Angus out on. It looks like a brown version of the white Stop Making Sense suit worn by David Byrne the way it fits.
from the era of the snide chairman, Mark Lamar did a wonderful job on 'Nevermind the Buzzcocks'. smug, snide with an underpinning of joyous cruelty. (sigh)
No question that Paul has a brilliantly fast mind, but it seems to me Ian won more rounds in the early years than these days. Quite possibly because he has a full time job as editor of Private Eye! Not to mention making documentaries. I'm Canadian and there is nothing featuring so many well-informed and quick-witted people in Canada or the US. The fact that such a show is so popular is one reason I love visiting and travelling within England, because so many people love knowledge and discussion for their own sake.
Thanks for posting

That's PRESIDENT Joe Biden to you! 😀
You mean fake, senile, lying, cheating Israeli first “ president “ Joe Biden.
It's a shame they didn't know how Robert Maxwell's daughter would turn out. They could really have had some fun.
I had no idea backwards for Red rum is murder...😨
You need to watch The Shining :-)
Back when the show was actually funny.
It still is but only when it’s real racial British people on the panel.
5:06 Well. Joe...
I wonder what Fergie would have to say about RandyAndy now...

Well this comedy didn't age well... calling Thomas a pervert but giving a pass to Kennedy and Biden.
