The extended version of HIGNFY. Team captains Paul Merton and Ian Hislop are joined by guest host Jennifer Saunders and panellists Grayson Perry and Matt Forde. 3 Dec 2018
There is a torrent available if you google for Have i got news for you torrent,, It has series 1 thru 54 in it.. Obviously i cannot post a link here, since that is morally dubious.. :D
I wish we still had this show in the Netherlands, i've pretty much been binge watching these episodes on youtube and even though half of it doesnt make sense to me (as the formula of the show obviously means its always full of local news, and im not always up to speed with UK news) im having so much fun watching these. Thank you for the uploads!
Mr. Elon Musk's observation that the probability of death on Mars is higher than the probability of death on Earth is incorrect. The probability of death on both planets is 100%. Meanwhile, the childhood friend of giant bull Knickers, Bra, was originally called Brahmin. Bra was a nickname.
35:15 I used to know someone who lived next door to a Jehovah Witness' Hall and their cat used to wander around the hall. The owner would go in there calling out for it - the cat's name was "Satan". The dog named Fire is just as inappropriate, but it made me laugh.
I must be missing some subtle point. For me, the spot ends up on the right side. Starting on the bottom: Forward - now on the side facing you Right - to the right Right - facing away Forward - back on the bottom Left - no change Backwards - facing away again Left - right side
I got it like Forward- now facing you right- its still facing you right- still facing you (if it's rotating left to right with the dot facing you the dot's position wont change) forward- dots on top of the cube left- on left side of cube backwards- still of left side of cube left- dots on bottom plane of cube
I think the problem is different frames of reference. I'm thinking of it globally, where x is the left-right axis, y is the forward-back axis, and z is the up-down axis in the space that the cube is in. "Forward" means rotating around the x axis so that the side with the spot is now facing you, "right" means rotating around the z axis so that the spot is on the right, etc. I guess they mean that the cube's axes stay with the cube, so by "right" they mean clockwise around the cube's original z axis.
9:56 I popped back in to say it usually costs a lot more than £3 to "lengthen [one's] pole"... like at least £50 for anything even remotely effective... I've been told.
Everyone is laughing at the forklift that causes an entire warehouse to collapse like dominos - The driver was buried and might have died - but nicely edited that bit out
@@linrob1312 Oh that sucks! I mean, I replayed it a few times because it was so spectacular, and I was pretty sure the forklift didn't hit the pallet rack. In fact, for those pallet racks to collapse like that, they had to have been WAY overloaded, far beyond their design capacity. If it was dairy or other canned/wet groceries, that would be easy to do.
Forklifts in the US are required to have a safety cage to protect the driver in case a load falls on top of them. I was more concerned about the guy standing on the end of the rack when the upright snapped. He was in a position to be seriously hurt.
"to drill a hole in the surface and measure any subsequent tremors". Subsequent? It's not measuring the effect of drilling, it's measuring seismic tremors. OMG
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?"

Mr Musk also observed that we need to massively reduce greenhouse gases and drive electric cars instead of fossil-fuel cars, and then made it happen,, and he gets thoroughly trashed by Jennifer. But Maggie's contribution to soft ice-cream gets all round respect from the whole panel?
@@Rangifulla Yes, and not one of them seemed to know that cows are, both by definition and through their inability to communicate, *not* in any position to insist they are referred to by the pronoun "he"
I didn't watch this until i realized that's not Spencer Jones. So sad that Grayson's career can be so easily hamstrung because the cover photo for the video he looks like he could be that flop goof Jones.
England has really gone down the drain. Back in the nineties I could have a good laugh watching HIGNFY. Now it's more boring than a German comedian. Januari second I will start my course of Russian. English is so out of date. Best wishes from the Netherlands.

Lizz Truss giving those resignation awards is bloody poetic
the best cut of this yet, no annoying logos, no annoying commercials, just HIGGY full. Thx!!
I still from time to time laugh at the episode with the Baroness. RIP. She was a true character
Whitehall hosting. watching him fawn over her is borderline cringe.
Perhaps you could share the season/episode plz?
I'd love to watch that one!
Thank you

Ugh no torrents on my gaming rig 😉😂
Perhaps a season 40 episode 5 and I could maybe find it on TH-cam
👍🏼

Belgian here: sending your cat is a figure of speech we use to mean, he can't be arsed to show up.
Grayson Perry is damned hilarious. That "Mister Whippy" bit at 27:44 had me laughing so hard I nearly fell out of my chair LOL.

Thank you for the uploads!
note: "he sent his cat" is a dutch/flemish saying to say somebody didn't show up.
Thanks, that can go in a trivia quiz for my students.

I know what you're saying and while that is true, how will it screw the statistics once somebody died on Mars who was born on Earth? :)
Thanks so much for posting.
8:25 More to the point, James Bond was conceived... not born.
I'll see myself out now...
Thanks!
22:32 I'm just amazed by the perfectly tuned G# and F notes of these glasses!
Jennifer Saunders ♥
Matt Forde. in the vernacular. 'not so much'
Grayson Perry ♥

Grayson Perry is sitting directly in front of a 10 foot caricature of his own face...
wondered if anyone else in the comments noticed haha
I believe Knickers is not a cow but rather, a steer.
A Holstein.
Thank you!!!!!
WOW, is this episode filled with Ha-Ha were YOU ever wrong so-called News 😀
Every time I hear Vince Cable's name I hear James Acaster sing, "Vince Cable sitting on a table, coz they've run out of chairs"
Thank you from Italy!!!

That's what I thought
In Armageddon chess, black gets 4 minutes and white gets 5, which is why it's fair for Black to win in a draw.
I like Matt Forde--very knowledgeable and funny. Impressionists always make me cringe a bit for some reason but he kept it low-key enough.
I can see that.@* *
0:44 - Yay! I'm watching from Minnesota right now :D
Me too! I mean, 5 years later. Uff-da, doesn't time fly?
"60% of people in the UK believe that the other 50% are innumerate"
shiny

Doesn't the Argentinian president look like the 12th doctor Peter Capaldi?🤔
that's a quality trump impression

he survived it was in the usa at a warehouse that stored dairy/groceries.
He was sacked...

That’s so English. They’re scary weird.
Brilliant Trump mocking segment!
today on ReWatch : History's History. 36:03 Cameron leaves no foot prints, Obama did refer to him as a 'light-weight'. Now We Know
The Answer of Maradona is always the same, let me draw the lines.
PLEASE CAN GRAYSON PERRY BE IN CHARGE OF UK ART?
Help is on the way
Brilliant episode. And:
Best Trump. EVER.
really the best joke at 19:50 :3
"to drill a hole in the surface and measure any subsequent tremors". Subsequent? It's not measuring the effect of drilling, it's measuring seismic tremors. OMG
Subsequent, contrary to what you seem to think, does not mean the same as consequent.
6:34 what are the scrapes from. I like to think they are defensive wounds. Get on it Scot Yard.
I just figured out who the current Dr. Who reminds me of when it should have been obvious all along.
My probability of dying on Mars is 0, my probability of dying of Earth is 100%. I don't think Elon knows that 100 is larger than 0.
34:20 had me cackling
Isn't Paul still far too relevant for panto?
who?
golly
A year later and all the "no deal Brexit" jokes and comments about Corbyn wants to leave ... Really dont hold up
Brexit doesn’t hold up
Em, cows are shes' not hes' 🤔
He is actually a steer.
Cattle is a non gendered term
what's the kate middleton joke?
Done
How can a cow be a male?
If city people try to talk about a bovid.
Grayson Perry, what a breath of fresh air alongside the has-beens.

Kickers was a fake....those are minicows....like shetland ponies...only 3 to 4 feet high....and a normal cow....lol
No, those are crossbred Wagyu cattle. Not the tallest breed but they're not 3 to 4 feet high.
I don't think you can call a steer any sort of cow, let alone a normal one. Admittedly he's not a normal bull, neither. PS I think it was Knickers....

Ah yes, the famously hilarious Russians. Have fun.
"Trump is stupid", "The Express is hate filled"? How edgy and original
I mean...the truth is the truth
The guy dressed as a clown really put no effort into being funny or entertaining. This is why people don't like clowns.
@* * This has nothing to do with what he was wearing, but the fact that he wasn't funny, interesting or entertaining - and he truly was not. I could not care less what he's wearing, but that make-up is gaudy.
Or dull Americans
Lots of quips about knickers & bras, but no one is game to mention the cow in the blue dress!

Oh man, zing
