I keep returning to this segment- it's one of the most well-edited pieces of television that I've ever seen. The guy who goes, "say anyfing- make somefing up- say "mmmehhuuh", maybe it's right". Just superb.
HAHA! My housemate is the one on the left!! He's the one that says "Can I sit in the middle?" - LEGEND immortalised in the annals of TV history!! Funniest thing EVER!
Yes, Cate (McKenzie) kicked me under the counter when I got a Starter question (Answer: Big Brother C4) wrong. I thought the answer was Wimbledon. Glad you dig the Golden Courd-roi jacket my sister Renu bought it from Rackhams in Birmingham
ha ha, i love this. i had an exam the other day, and across my desk, written in tippex, was the word "venezuela". i wonder if the person who wrote it was referencing this. i'd like to think so.
aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhahahahahahaha! this is quite possibly the funniest sketch i have ever seen in my life. and i take my comedy very, very, very seriously... iannucci is a genius.
One of the best dressed contestants, you must be proud of the immortality bestowed by TT via UC? But it's so good to see you do have a sense of humour!
Mousetrap is the answer, no? A tabletop game involving memory and skill tests, poor quality cheese, and the play within a play in Shakespeare's 'Hamlet'.
Yes, it was good. I think one of the Cambridge lot got, but no one else. A good game I thought, always nice to see cantab going home empty handed & right at the end.
Forget about what's underneath Wickes. Rampant speculation, I'm sure hahaha. But check out the Polish soap opera, which is equally hilarous. This show had a real touch of genius.
Spanish to English translation program is a contest for teams of England universities generally are difficult questions. But the voices have changed to read nonsense (apart from the lord who asks the questions, he is still with her normal voice). And the girl says all the time "Venezuela, Venezuela Venezuela ... I said," but the Sikh says "you say Venezuela for all the questions, it is not sonofabitch Venezuela," And after the other says "nothing more to say merghh, , perhaps it is right "
@judgenutmeg1977 No it was "fufnudhf", Jeremy got it wrong, he came out after the show and apologised, saying that "really Birminham should have won, and that he was really really sorry" quote. Not that changed the fact that their future, as possible university challenge winners, had been ruined- I beliveve he took them out to burger king to try and make up for it, apparently Mackenzie cried the whole meal, into her diet coke. Apparently only a regular diet coke. Monster isnt he!
They picked on us because you cannot see my lips move betwixt the moustache when they went into the dubbing booth. They missed our earlier appearence when I sabotaged one of the answers to Jeremy's question
Sij dice 'Bollocks' .. then the Sikh says "is merghh?" And the Lord says "is not Venezuela!". S do not know if it can translate, at least with my Castilian. But is the humor of the English Classic.
I can do my own voice overs. The reason they used me is that you cannae see my lips move. My 'Hairy Guy' status as you correctly observe put paid to that.

Laugh all you want but between 0:19 and 0:34 they earned fifteen points.
Hilarious Deepinder!....did not know you were on here...will have to get your autograph!!
I hope you spat out your tea. They chose me because any old thing can be adduced to me when you can't see my lips move.
I'm embarrased to say I snorted with laughter watching this! Very funny!
I love the "Oh bollox!" at the end! :)
He's been to Venezuela!
"He loves Venezuela, he's BEEN to Venezuela!"
'It's not...fucking Venezuaela' XD

"Can I sit in the middle".
The kind of humour you can't find anywhere else.
"Can I sit in the middle, hmm?"
Subtly brilliant
ha ha, i love this.
i had an exam the other day, and across my desk, written in tippex, was the word "venezuela". i wonder if the person who wrote it was referencing this. i'd like to think so.
5 minutes later and I still can't stop laughing!
This is perhaps, as you say, the funniest thing ever.
Ooh 'Armando Iannucci's Time Trumpet' is the program. Gotta watch that.
aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhahahahahahaha!
this is quite possibly the funniest sketch i have ever seen in my life. and i take my comedy very, very, very seriously...

Yup, but the team in the clip is Trinity Hall, not Trinity College. :)
Drinking lots of water,
Riding my 10 speed bike,
Looking in Skips

Mousetrap is the answer, no? A tabletop game involving memory and skill tests, poor quality cheese, and the play within a play in Shakespeare's 'Hamlet'.
No. It was Venezuela- listen again!
I love time trumpet!

The captain of SOAS on last night's UC was forced to answer 'Venezuela' to one of the questions. No-one seemed to get the reference.
@chazman1988 What about Ian Beale?
"It's not...fucking...venezuela" Genius
What's with the annotated red square at 00.14?
@stupidjunk978
Shirley, the real answer is Simgorgonzago?

The thing is, the Venezuela Girl sounds exactly like that on the actual show.
It's Venezuela!

Yes, it was good. I think one of the Cambridge lot got, but no one else. A good game I thought, always nice to see cantab going home empty handed & right at the end.

lmao!!!!
I work with Mackenzie and she's a force of nature. She can be very earnest but this clip doesn't do her justice.
ahahahaha
Sij dice 'Bollocks'

foog noog new?
"What about phlugmegnu?"
@youngpossum ha! XDDDDD

After 14 years😃😂
There are worse ways to be remembered. Is Mackenzie as terribly earnest as she looks in this clip? I like your jacket, by the way.
Imagine if this was real...
Can I sit in the middle? :)
