There were a bunch of dudes with slide rules figuring out the results a computer gave them and no one found that odd? What exactly was that computer for? Looks? (Yes, I know that computers back then were primitive. I've used them. Still, any work that you could do with a slide rule, the computer should do. Unless you are just crap at using the thing.)

Great show about a pathetic institution - politicians...get rid of the wankers...they achieve nothing for large sums of public money...We just DON'T NEED THEM
Not to be an unpleasant technocrat here but I think we need clarification: Unsolicited predictions can definitely be categorized as 'smug'. However if you ask someone; who will win what, then you're getting an answer to a question. However if you ask a smug bastard who will win what, then it's your fault that you got a smug answer.
Also this is one of the sadder episodes, looking back. All of the politicians who lost had major issues with getting anything done, sure, but when clegg was elected it seemed like things might change for the better even just a little bit from the same old shit. And knowing all about Brexit and Trump and Boris being what's to come...ugh. I guess watch what you wish for, because it sure is different.
Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !" Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment?"
I absolutely love that 2 resignations were announced during the filming. Perfect!
I love the way Jon Snow describes songs in "the big fat quiz of" and the subsequence dances. Absolutly brilliant
Legend. He’s an absolute legend. It’s not a Christmas without watching him dance on Big Fat Quiz.

Will you stop it about legends. A legend is something that probably isn't true.
As an American I love this program.
I am obsessed with Jon Snow. Gorgeous, witty, self deprecating. Best fun is his dancing to tunes.
One of the best episodes.
“You know there’s a lot of pain in the country”….
😂😂😂😂😂💀
No matter how many times I watch this episode that absolutely kills me
Absolute Legend Jon Snow. How can a news presenter be this funny? But then again, how many are Jon Snow, eh?
Best episode! News intervening as they record.
Excellent banter.
Thank you!
What's going on ? I'm bingeing this show, and Hislop +1 have won the last four or five !
WEIRD!
Ian is so cool
Contrary to popular thought, Jon Snow knows quite a bit.
I'm surprised people thought [that] he didn't.
@@kettle_of_chris Ygritte of Game of Thrones said on many occasions "You know nothing Jon Snow."
Thx
Shoot the sound man
Very much not the end of Farage...!
@coldtakesexposed not the end of Nigel firage from 2020
41 minutes and they only get to ask 6 questions.
The end of Farage 😂
2024 here and, god, dear god in heaven, it was very much NOT the end of Farage. 🙁
Yeah noticed that too

3:55 the middle class plumbs are thinking of more excuses for their smug predictions!
In 2015 he was stepping aside but in politics things change

I love how the kid whose pants fell down looked at Clegg like he was the jerk for deciding to walk away…. “What the hell, bro?” 😂😂😂
wouldn't a ninja tauri be a yakitori?
I'm upset with the lack of Game of Thrones jokes
I know several people who think it's hilarious when pets have ordinary person names. Me, I like the silly ones.

UKIP may be all but dead but Farage is around at least
until Brexit is delt with
So.... That went well....
End of Farage. I’m laughing so hard rn in 2020.
Anyone else finding the hignfy of late not very funny?
no
The BBC has a new policy on political programmes forcing them to tone down the insults, it's a shame politicians need to be laughed at now and again.
