For those who may not know, Joe Lycett had his name changed to Hugo Boss and used that in one of his comedy routines, hence Sandi giving him the "Boss" word in the experiment.
Aah thank you. Understanding an inside joke makes it better 😊
@@VivekAnandJ There's also an explanation for his subsequent comment "Looks like we're off to court" - because he did it in reaction to Hugo Boss suing other companies using the word "Boss".
INCORRECT...the word 'BOSS' was used because it can be flipped upside down and all three letters (B, O, S) are the same flipped upside down...only the capital b though...cor blimey, wtaf is wrong with stupide humans??? truly, there should be an IQ quiz before allowing comments online...answer a few questions correctly and one can post, would eliminate the flotsam...
@datgrrl5698 if that were the norm, your rudeness would preclude your ever posting again!! You have your opinion; I have mine. Run along now.
@@datgrrl5698 It's hardly the only word in English that can be flipped upside down. You could use the exact same letters and have the word "sob", for example. C can be flipped upside down. Et cetera. So yeah, the probability that choosing this particular word was a joke/reference is quite high.
Thank you for uploading. QI is my good place to go to every day, even episodes I've watched before never get old. The atmosphere is so positive and relaxed, I absolutely love it.
That's not Joe Lycett, that's a somewhat famous funnyman named Hugo Boss.
5:39 to 5:45 is why they really flipped Alan's seat. Him next to Joe would've been too much chaos and tension 😆
Because having Alan in his regular seat and Joe across on the other side would never happen 😮😊😅😂
@@thisravenhasflown010 and when Bill Bailey is on - even the other side, they ignite each other for total chaos, and it's great! 😂
@@IansUToob57 I completely agree. Bill adds 100% to the situation 🤣👍
Okay, Sandi made a joke but there is a reason Liza saw her reflection 'bulge' for a second when she shifted which eye she was focusing on. Its her glasses, because of how glasses have to be curved for best correction of your vision you only ever get actually identical refraction of light looking straight ahead. When you shift your eyes to look to the side the refraction each eye receives is slightly different. Normally our visual cortex adjusts the image so we don't notice (the same way it covers the blindspot directly ahead by creating a composite off the surrounding). But focusing on your eye in a mirror, then immediately switch focus to the other, the slight distortion of the light in the mirror and the differing refraction of the glasses, the brain stumbles for a second as the composite image from both eyes aren't composited, and for a second you see the world as each eye would see it differently.
The intelligence of the people watching this show is refreshing! Such a wonderful group.
Sandi missed Alan's joke when she asked about how she was going to teach them to write like Leonardo DaVinci and he said "teach us Italian." That was so funny and ignored
This is the funniest series on you tube. Not many things can make me laugh until I cry.
Alan is correct. When he played Jonathon Creek, I had him in my head several times!😘
"Everybody's done me in their head, Joe"........................Ooooohhh yesssss!
Im definitely stealing the idea of a Going There, During, and Leaving Foldy Thing.
4:30 my brain hurts already
Every American comedian Sandy tries to imitate end up sounding like a 1930s detective.
I need more info on the mirror and reflection left/right not up/down.
It is not flipped... The thing is you are looking at it from the opposite side. Imagine as if you were able to look thru your T-shirt, and see the text from behind.
Wait what was the task with the name writing on the paper? I don't understand what she asksbthem to do 🤔
Agreed. Were they supposed to write with their left hands and or back to front? It's not clear. And they were wrong about the 'g'.
17:35 then James May's "SAlfa RomeoB" from an old TopGear episode is the car for Sandy
Didn’t Hedy Lamar invent some kind of ( still top secret) radar system that helped win the war ( WW2)? Besides being drop dead gorgeous!!!
During WW2 she and a musician friend used a miniature player piano mechanism to make radio devices for radio controlled torpedoes change radio frequency to avoid jamming. Frequency hopping was already at least 40 years old, nobody used radio controlled torpedoes, the technology was superseded before use, the only novel thing in her patent was the mechanical mechanism, and her patent is not secret if ever it was. So no, she didn't help win the war and it's not secret.
@@igrim4777 thank you,,, they should make a movie about her. But nowadays ugh. I worry about who is considered” heroes.”!! Thanks again
It did help us later with WiFi and cellular data. Good now, lowsy then.@@igrim4777
I love Zoe she is hilarious Lol 😂 33:12 "Gotten rid of his going there foldy thing"😂 My mom does that!!
The mirror is reflecting exactly what is in front of it.
I've known since childhood that some birds see their reflection as either a possible mate, or as an enemy. You can tell by their behavior which one they see! Right now, each and every day, we have two wild birds who attack our tinted glass windows. The windows are covered by steel grills, which they hang on to, and peck at the glass hard, attacking the "other" bird. Every day! Luckily, the glass is thick enough that they have yet to break one, but it might happen soon!
Pre-2020, I found applause annoying. Post-2020, I CAN’T GET ENOUGH OF IT!!!!!
but my mirrors at home do that same thing and Sandi isn't here flipping things around. Or at least I don't think she is. She's so small I guess she might be hiding somewhere.
I miss Fry in this so much!! But I guess it's not the worst, but I can't help but think they were kinda grasping at the straws here. The fact that Stephen once told the panel of QI that he indulged in mirror writing himself and now they make a whole segment out of it.
With mirror... it did flip for shirt... !
when I saw Zoe speaking French (@37:06) I imagined Zoe and her boy friend Mr. Bean, sitting in a French Cafe, flirting. Zoe is asking for a Gitane, or she has a Gitane and is asking for a light.
zoe lyons is a married lesbian so zoe would not be sitting in a cafe in france with her 'boyfriend' but with her wife...cor...
I've always thought my mum should have learned mirror writing. She's a retired journalist and used to do all her interview notes on notepads with a ball point pen. Being left handed, she had the smudging problem, and learned to write with an extremely awkward handwriting that even herself had a hard time reading 😄
I just thought, how long would it really take to just learn to write and read backwards? But then I was a kid, and learning anything seemed easy.
Sandi hasn’t played enough CoD, so doesn’t seem to know about “cooking” a grenade.
Zoe Zoe Zoe 🤣🤣🤣
I used to think I had a modicum of intelligence. Not a lot . But now I feel like a moron . I’m not understanding 90% of this episode. I knew about 90% of the radiation episode. But this one deflated me 😂…
I was hoping alan's was gunna be a duck quacking so there was no echo
Duck quacks do echo.
@skoronesa yeah but they have used urban ledgends to make the sounds before so why not this time
I had a dog that recognised itself in the mirror, it also used the mirror to spy on us while we were eating.
If it’s you flipping the card that causes the backwards word. What causes a word to be backwards in some TH-cam videos?
There is a non-scatological explanation for the ziplock bag on the moon. Apollo 16 astronaut Charlie Duke left a photograph of himself with his wife and two sons on the the lunar surface in a ziplock bag. He then snapped a photo of it with his fancy Hasselblad camera.
Does it exist anymore? I know the flags they left are grey/white now due to the solar winds and radiation
@@dianehrechko6370 I imagine it's long since faded by now.
According to physicist Richard Feynman, a mirror doesn't flip left-to-right at all. It flips front and back.
... as was shown in the show, man. Did you even watch it?
@@LukeBillwalker86 but sandy's explanation was bollocks. the mirror does transform the image, it flips it back-to-front from the point of the viewer
The seat on the right, is not right for Alan.
Those great earphones. We had a system here in the PNW of the US during the preWW2 era where a person sat in a chair and the phones/chair could be rotated and tilted. When the sound of motors was loudest the coordinates were given to the spotlight operators.
How is the google profiting from one-liner sock puppets making comments? Plus more offensive ads!
Maybe depoliticizing America's legal system would help?
So: "A nonpartisan Justice may compel two recusals by junior partisan Justices."
How about that idea?
i am right handed, but can write mirror image style with my left. hand. it's bad but you can read it.
Having seen Adrian Chiles on Taskmaster New Year’s Treat, I would back him to beat Joe’s urinal score.
I've watched this many times, plus other people do it, but I still don't understand that word in the mirror thing.
That's because they don't answer the up/down part.
A more precise explanation (in my opinion, anyway): When you lie down on your left side, the floor is on your left, and up is on your right. Look in the mirror, and you will see that the word looks the same, but you will also see that the floor (down) is still on your left, and up is still on your right.
It's our perception of up/down that causes the confusion, because even when upside-down, we will "see" up as up. Somehow this explanation starts to get confusing, but that's for the same reason. ;) Please, let me know if this helps. :)

@Shannon Jacobs you're repeating yourself. Are you trolling?
@@wkrijthe incoherent rambling about a political system thats thousands of miles away, he is trolling yes, why care?
5:25~5:31
Alan ⚡ 🎖
Is Peppers ghost how magicians make elephants & buildings disappear? 😮
Of course the mirror doesn't "do" anything, but the image is revered.
Home Nightclub in Sydney has a mirrored urinal. Many a gay dance party has been had there where we've had a wonderful time! lol
🤣🤣🤣 I can imagine
Nope, I'm just a fucking genius!
You're right to be disappointed, that's shit!
Is Alan Davies one of the funniest men in the world? I think he’s really, really smart, too!
What good does a mirror do when one Flamingo want's to mate with one in the mirror or worse it's a refection of itself, Lol. Poor Flamingo, poor, poor Flamingo.
They will reproduce with actual fellow flamingos but the mirror gives them the impression that the colony is larger (Sandy said that they do not start reproducing until the colony is a certain size)
No one can convince me that Alan Davies isn't slightly drunk on most episodes of this show.
For Alan always in last place
Dang they have hot women on here 🔥🔥🔥
That doesn’t look like a ziplock bag ,it looks like a cover for the mirror ….
Mirrors flip front to back. That's why it appears left-right reversed.
Even QI gets the mirror thing wrong! Up and down are absolute directions, left and right are relative directions.
Put a mirror on a north wall, stand in front of it and look at your self. Move the top of your head, move the bottom of your legs, wave your west arm, wave your east arm... see, nothing flipped. :)
All directions can be relative.
It’s more easily explained than this - a mirror reflects light exactly as it’s received. The problem is that we only read left to right.
"we" read left to right??? wtaf...hebrew is written and read right to left...arabic, urdu, etc...wtaf is "we"??? cor blimey, IQ test needed for posting online...
4 hours, and 2000 clients? that's 8 per minute
i dont know if that is accurate
That's not magic.
38:20 How would you like to be this person who was called up to be in a picture to be placed on a TV show and you've prepared the previous day by getting a haircut and shave or makeup, had your eye brows done and covered your disgusting mole and your teeth whitened only to have your head cut off by the photographer! I feel sorry for the person in the front row at the bottom of the picture. He be like, " What the bloody hell have you done to me" I've done got myself all pretty and you've cut me head off" I best be getting full pay for this.
Alen should never be on the Right because he's never right. 😢
It's always nice to leave something of ourselves on another planet, so why not poo! The next people or aliens can extract our DNA from it and clone us and see what a bunch of wankers we are. LOL
Allegro Non Troppo (1976).
Ravel's Bolero sequence.
Anyone else find that mirror thing really stupid and obvious? I’m concerned
At first I thought I was stupid because I don't understand what is being explained. Then I realised that they are explaining something that I already understand in a very stupid way. It's like those wordy NEW WAYS that they are teaching Math at school... simply to trip up kids. Annoying!
@@rebeccashrubshall245 okay. I’m glad I’m not alone. It’s a mirror! Lol not difficult to explain.
I keep hearing about “new math” but I don’t know what it means. I think I’ll bug my brother and see what my niece and nephew are up to.
Sandi's explanation about flipping things in the mirror makes no sense to me. The reason why things LOOK flipped in a mirror is that the light that illuminates you goes directly to the mirror and is reflected directly back. There is no "flipping". It's just that our brains interpret it that way. There's no reason for the image to be inverted, that is turned upside down. It's an interesting illusion and mind game that Lewis Carroll got a lot of mileage out of. But it doesn't really exist.
Does Alan think that ‘hairdo’ is attractive? I just don’t understand it. It’s ghastly.
I find it attractive
Jesus wept Lycett isn't very funny without a script is he
Or with one.
Bring back Stephen Fry. Sandi is just obnoxious and unpleasant.
Im definitely stealing the idea of a Going There, During, and Leaving Foldy Thing.
