The funniest thing about this is they're really smart men and do super well if they bother trying, which they don't really unless there's something in it for them, like bonus points haha
@@N3ur0m4nc3r How dare you... Jonathan Ross is the Executive Producer of this program and... wait is this like the only time he's ever been on and lost? And it really did get David and Rob in a tizzy, that was funny... annoying to listen to but I'm glad they lost so bad.
Love how Noel will write an answer and by the time he says it out loud, he seems like he forgot he wrote it and it’s a whole new joke for him, or even better, now he’s embarrassed about what he wrote and struggles to say it out loud.
I would kill to have improv skills like Russell. The way he can carry on the same cadence while saying the funniest shit I've ever heard is genuinely enviable
Noel and Russell just showed the main lesson of life. Don't take it too seriously, it doesn't matter 😂 Even if you work super hard, someone who did nothing could still beat you to the top. Hahaha Man. That was brutal.
@@LQOTW He's good at it. He's a great bad guy who makes you want Noel and Russell to win, and maybe give him a punishment kiss or something uncomfortable. I think he really stepped up in this episode. His twat act made Noel and Russell look better, which made for a great show.
my favourite is david and rob thinking that finnish people were celebrating sweden scoring a goal, when finnish people wouldn't be caught dead cheering for sweden winning at something
David Walliams must feel like every other student in Hogwards when at the end of the year all their hard work was worth noting because 'Plus 1000 points for Harry Potter! Grifendor wins!' But to be totally honest: I love Noel and Russell together, so they get a pass.😹
"Slytherin wins the House Cup! ... But wait. This year, Harry Potter has uncovered an ancient evil within the castle that, well to be honest I've always known about, but just couldn't be fucked dealing with. I mean it was on the to-do list, but I guess stopping the reincarnation of the deadliest wizard ever, just sort of slipped my mind. Anyway, 10,000 to Harry Potter! Gryffindor wins!"
It's currently July 2023, and a massive amount of the joy that I'm getting from this playlist, is the fact that there isn't an annoying ad break every feckin' 5 minutes.

This is my fourth full episode I've watched in a row and as an American, I'd like to actively say I wish Jeopardy and Family Feud was this fun/funny and hilarious
Of the last 20 years, this has to be the best one! The year I graduated and my freshman year of college, I remembered so much from this time. Good negotiating Noel and Russell!
Be it Cat's delightfully raucous laughter, Johnathon's good-natured championing of The Goth Detectives, David's Corden-esque pissy-fit, Rob's long, pinched face contort to hound-dog-length proportions, or the impishly gleeful twinkle in Jimmy's eye as he awards the bonus 22 points...hands down this 2006 quiz show version was, for me, a far more entertaining and enjoyable experience than my *actual* memories of that year... 😉🥰
@@lecy2525 Don't you notice the awkward smiles and laughter? And the mood suddenly changing? I don't know what the fight was about. But what I managed to google, it was something about Boy George made some comment about Matt Lucas.
Yeah, but when Jimmy deliberately helps Noel & Russell JUST to piss off David is my favourite. I've seen this quiz the most, just for that bit 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂👍👍👍
I can’t remember exactly which one it was because it’s been so long ago now but there was one (one of many) where Noel and Ayoade were partners and Ayoade and Noel were both on fire with their jokes. Can’t remember which one it was now but I remember laughing at everything that came out of their mouths. It also helps that they have great comedic chemistry.
@@marcozethof fair enough could just be competitive, but i feel like david and rob are playing the part of people trying to take the quiz aspect of the show seriously which is the comedy aspect of it.
@@BeavzMC Well if it was comedy, I think it was very unclear, and it's not like I dislike him or something, I'm dutch and I watch this show and the only one I knew was Russel brand and that woman who plays gina linetti in Brooklyn99 and I think it's fun
I love that jimmy calls out Walliams for have a ‘show biz hissy fit’. What a dullard baby. Noel and Russel are having fun (which is the POiNT of the show!) and he can’t be bothered to not be a wanker.
Those two Russel and Noel have been teamed up quite alot and they love mucking about. The scary thing is if they took it seriously they probably would have won everytime or damn close.
Noel Fielding is both ugly and gorgeous at the same time. If he had a conservative side-part haircut and wore a standard bland suit and tie, he'd be a rather homely and strange-looking guy. But with the makeup and costume, he's astonishing.
While Russell is chronologically younger, Noel will always be significantly younger in the way he approaches the world. It’s part of Noel’s charm and why Russell takes a protective stance with him.
With the medal discrepancy, it’s kind of funny how different the Big Fat Quiz’s coverage is for the Winter and Summer Olympics. Summer: video montage with music, special guests Winter: show a picture, ask what the sport is
I just realised that the children who did the play in this one will all be in their 20s now. Which is scary because I remember watching this episode in 2006.
He was invited back. Several times, actually. I do enjoy his odd, off-beat, and childish humor. He was putting on the whole frustrated-schoolboy persona for laughs and you can tell that likeability is not something he factors into his act, so it's not for everyone, I guess.
This is heaven for me, I find Russell Brand & Noel Feilding HILARIOUS & SEXY AF!! Together they are comedy magic. Laughed so much that I nearly fell out of my wheelchair !!! Literally 😁
Yeah, there’s some great comedy in these older episodes but you kinda have to ignore that adults used to be a bunch of large children.. oh wait they’re still like that but in a different way now
@@xxkimbatron i think everyone is butthurt, its common for these british panel shows to establish a kind of 'gag' thats carried throughout, also ive been watching it and theres been like 3/4 comments of that nature in the entire 2 hours you guys are just being ridiculous..
it's so crazy that you understand that they are jokes and you still take offense. Why are women a holier than thou subject that can't be joked about? They joked about muslims, they bashed on noel and russell for the first entire 30 minutes of the show, why do you suddenly have a problem when the victim is a women? Kinda sexist really, she's a grown adult just like the men, she can take a joke and knew what she signed up for.
@@matieking lmao why are you so mad about me saying that I felt a little uncomfortable with the jokes they were making. Of course the Muslim jokes you mentioned are not ok and what happened to Russell was also inappropriate, but that doesn’t dismiss all the inappropriate jokes they made about women. Just cause she’s a grown adult doesn’t give them the right to make those kinds of jokes. Also please don’t call me sexist when you’re the one whose upset that someone said they were uncomfortable and didn’t like that they were being rude to women, seems like you’re the sexist one not me. Get over yourself.
My personal opinion is that the dream panel would be Noel and Richard Ayoade, Sarah Millican and Katherine Ryan, and David Mitchell with Johnathon Ross. I would be in absolute hysterics during the whole episode. This one is great but I really think David Williams severely brings the mood down in many occasions throughout the game this time. The two other teams, especially Noel and Russel, (even though I hate myself for enjoying Russel given the allegations of how he treats women), make up for it, though. And of course Jimmy is always hilarious. As an elementary school teacher, I often relate to Jimmy. The contestants are like my kids; easily distracted and hard to keep on track lol. But he does a great job of balancing comedy while still regaining control of the show.
i agree with the david part he is playing up the whole they cant get bonus points petty guy thing but it doesnt come off as funny it just annoys the shit out of you
Oh shit, I've gone so far back in time that Jonathon Ross is insulting someone else for being old
Hahaha that’s faaar
Honestly this quiz became legendary at the point when Russell and Noel got that 22 point question right. Absolutely fantastic :D
The funniest thing about this is they're really smart men and do super well if they bother trying, which they don't really unless there's something in it for them, like bonus points haha
@@stone5against1 they are very intelligent. That is why they are excellent comedians. But knowing tidbits doesn't reflect intelligence.
I also like how Cat was super happy for them after that.
I am convinced this was a grift.

Didn’t realize how much I needed to hear Jimmy Carr call Noel and Russell adorable
I honestly just want to watch an entire show of Noel and Russel getting answers wrong 😂🖋️
Me too!
But also David getting so mad about it
Russell is the biggest poser tool in entertainment.
@@n0isyturtle why?
@@n0isyturtle He is, but he is funny nonetheless
Ah, a young Jimmy Carr. Looks exactly like the old Jimmy Carr.
Cyborgs don't age.
Ventriloquist dolls seldom look different
Good use of his avoided tax money in getting a tuck and a nip
Idk, I think he's lost some weight in the face area
He's spent a lot of money making sure he looks at least the same if not better
As an American who just discovered this show on TH-cam, this was the best one yet. Twist ending!
I found it around the start of the pandemic & have been obsessed ever since.
Ah, the good old Goth Detectives. That show still needs to happen.
Noel and Russell, proving you don't have to be right to have fun
Or to win. 😛
Noel looks so young and adorable here!
Well, this episode is like 15 years old.
this was during the Boosh, he was just a baby then.
The danger mouse detour is easily the comedy genius we all deserved.
I would kill to have improv skills like Russell. The way he can carry on the same cadence while saying the funniest shit I've ever heard is genuinely enviable
I can't even comprehend the thought behind this statement.
He is fantastic
Russell was sober since 2002 right?

Didn't he go completely mental?

@@beenaplumber8379 you'd be surprised
Yeah, it's a shame we don't have more comedy panels
3 more & that's your whole day gone.

Noel and Russell will always be known as The Goth Detectives from that day onwards.
“Did you really want to hurt him”. Well delivered joke
Jimmy asks for team names and then never ever uses them for the rest of the show.
I've seen this like 3 times and know the end but I'm still on the edge of my seat.
Of the last 20 years, this has to be the best one! The year I graduated and my freshman year of college, I remembered so much from this time. Good negotiating Noel and Russell!

Mr. Noel und Mr. Russell solving crimes: Hell, I'd definitely watch that show!
Out of all these quizes, I don't think I have ever heard of any of the authors that Ian McKellen/Charles Dance read from.
coming here after watching the more recent years is literally so shocking,, it really shows it age with its guests and the kinds of jokes
every woman is objectified immediately, I was so shocked as well.
@@SparkleToes04 right?? and it’s so shocking how much of it was from jonathan ross 🤢 he seems to have cleaned up his act a _lot_ since then
@@SparkleToes04 My exact thought! Even Kat had to kiss David 😖
I remember watching this bran new. My my times have changed dramatically. only 15 years!
Generally the best episode ever! 😆
this is the greATEST big fat quiz, hands down, nothing will top it
Any Episode of Brassic tops it 😝
I agree!!!
Only Richard Ayoade could. Otherwise you are completely right.

Here I was thinking Noel and Russell would be the most chaotic, not David and Rob
That Jimmy Savile question aged like milk
So true. I cringed when his name was mentioned.
It's always funny to watch old shows when they mention him. They go from "great man!" to "what a wanker" just a year after his death.
The most amazing thing here is that Noel and Russel are only 3 years apart in age
Do you think they still are? 🤔

One of the best quizzes they ever had.
How did someone do a Jagger impression without Brydon jumping in???
So thrilled Noel and Russell won :P
I just realised that the children who did the play in this one will all be in their 20s now. Which is scary because I remember watching this episode in 2006.
In my head 2006 was just a few years ago...
What do you mean, it’s only been like 10 years since the ‘90’s?!
I still long for the day one of these kids becomes a famous comedian and ends up as a panelist on the Big Fat Quiz so we can come full circle.
I was the same age as those kids when this came out haha, really weird to think about
Noel's humor is always good-natured. 🥰
Did Russell Brand quote a bit of Shakespeare? Well done! Whether that was actual Shakespeare or he made it sound like Shakespeare, it was well done!
"what did Jimmy Savile start 42 years ago and finish this year?" With hindsight we all know the real answer to that question...
Oof.. The sad killed the funny there
Actually slapped my knee laughing at "peep scarf"
15 years later AND WE STILL CAN’T TAKE MORE THAN A TINY ZIPLOCK BAG OF LIQUIDS ONTO A PLANE
I can't believe it's been 2 years since 2006
Temporally displaced huh
36:16 This part, where Jimmy Has Kat Deeley kiss David Walliams better, makes me really uncomfortable
42:52 - I love a bit of good foreshadowing!
2021 couldn't start better!
This was the start of 2007 😅
We know, but it was put on TH-cam just a couple of days ago
I can't tell whether David is doing a bit or if he is really that unpleasant.
This was the most amazing BFQ I've ever seen
Noel and Russell made this my favorite episode of all time! i could watch 1:03:42 - 1:03:58 on repeat
My goodness Noel was so skinny!
that's my type, and it's odd. I don't want to find him attractive, but I do
I can see why David never got invited back
"It will be funny if I make myself as unlikeable as possible"
He was invited back. Several times, actually. I do enjoy his odd, off-beat, and childish humor. He was putting on the whole frustrated-schoolboy persona for laughs and you can tell that likeability is not something he factors into his act, so it's not for everyone, I guess.
