My mum’s weird friend downsized her house after her husband died and bought a Rolls to travel about Europe in. A spring broke in some village in Italy and the company sent one out express. When she got back to England she contacted the company saying “you haven’t billed me yet?” and they replied “there must be some mistake madam - Rolls Royce springs don’t break”
She sounds like a woman with a lot of stories
@@Isrjisoneavalable she was - her name really was Winifred and she painted a mean watercolour
i have heard 30 different versions of the same story over the past 40 years….
Tell us a good one friend
The fact you started "my mum's weird friend" tells me more than I want to know... about you. 🙄😳
I adore Aisling Bea, and Holly Walsh very sweetly and unassumingly wins most times she's on.
I’ve gotten entirely hooked on this series and my poor partner gets the randomness “Did you Know?!” when he gets home 😂
There's a great Top Gear clip where James May takes the lady who designed the road signs to a 'men at work' sign, and he gives her a sharpie to make the modification.
There is no such thing as “a great top gear clip” the show is rubbish. Fu@king childish men trying to make driving a car look important.
Cally is like the Gyles Brandreth of dating anecdotes.
Who is Cally?
I watched this episode a few years ago for the first time. It was the beginning of a wonderful relationship with QI. I've watched many episodes since. This program is wonderful. Light, mature, funny, wacky, and enlightening.
A relationship with a tv show? Grow up pal🤣
@@IgglePyggle if that's your conclusion then you need to seriously start reading books xD and try to cultivate that grey matter while you can. or don't! but don't bother anyone when you realise you can't keep a romantic relationship with another being
Ignore the trolls mate. Goodonya, enjoy.
"Toksvig Transit - No matter how long the journey, we get you there in the shortest amount of time!" I love Stephen Fry, but Sandi has taken on the role and made it her own; one of the very rare cases where someone takes over a role and is as iconic as the original, the other case being Carolyn Jones \ Angelica Houston as Morticia Addams.
Spot on!!
She's great but more 'profound' feminine talk than one would usually find on the BBC lol l note, being new to the SandQi.
I also thought Sequin Fri was very funny. Wonder what he's doing now? (Retired abroad watching on YT.)
Although she never gets up her own arse like Fry would do on occasions.
I still miss Stephen. I think there is no one who can outdo him
Agreed, @jeraldbaxter3532. SF always came across as a teacher, whereas ST is like someone who's just discovered something really cool and can't wait to share it. Much more relatable. Also love how she loses it when the team gets out of control. Hilarious.
They are so funny in this one. Especially, aishley!
Another brilliant mix for the panel for this episode. Aisling is always so much fun to enjoy
Every time I watch a show based in the UK and hear a fact about how small it actually is compared to other countries I just can’t wrap my mind around it! I’m currently on a 16 hour road trip from Colorado to Indiana and my first leg is almost twice the distance of the A66 they were mentioning! I’ve also done Route 66 including some of the original “ribbon road” and it’s so crazy to see how much the landscape changes, if you can do it it’s a fun trip. We were lucky to stay with family in Chicago, Vegas and LA which made it wayyy cheaper 😂
omg those match heads!!!
Really enjoy this program and it’s ever changing panel of guests. Watching from the great state of Maine US
The ONLY reasonable noise for an electric vehicle to make is the Jetson's car noise.
There's a video on YT of a Toyota Prius modified to do that, I think it works quite well
Toksvig Transit: Even if you're _short_ on fare, we'll get you there.
You. But no l worked hard for my salary in London before l retired and to see 100s getting on and off without paying ie touching in / out on the bendies was annoying to say the least.
Must say, I now prefer Sandy to Stephen.
This was the last time the man with the beard joined in at audience participation.
I know -- from a show that is supposed to celebrate intelligence too!!
@Ann Other It just struck me as a bit mean. They asked him a question, he answered it correctly, and then they made fun of him.
@@msbluejayway I know!! It reminds me of how school used to be where anyone intelligent was mocked as a 'boffin' and ridiculed.
Besides, its a question that could come up in anyones driving test - its not even that obscure!!
@@msbluejayway Arrogance rubs off once you get work at the beeb. Try phoning them even spills down to ancillary minions too LOL. What sauce when WE pay their salary. Try it, see the attitude you get, its truly hillhairyass.
I once went to a comedy show with a friend of mine we were sat in the front row he didn't enjoy it because the comic picked us out to comment on something. I found it funny.
In general the rule for interacting with other people is the rule of 'saving face' (or at least it used to be). We go to incredible lengths to avoid making other people feel bad such as 'do you happen to know where... something or other is?' no way to feel offended if you don't and a positive feeling of being in the know or special if you do.
But on the other side of this is comedy - (and this is a comedy not a quiz show) People choose to put themselves in the situation - the rush comes from being noticed. They are laughing with them not at them.
I'm English we're not always easy to understand although I didn't really realise that until I had lived in a couple of other countries.
23:37 I've been to Halmahera - and it's quite beautiful really.😅 Yes, the jungle is dense and spiky...but no need to roll in nettles.
Sandy’s Italian accent just cleared my skin, watered my crops, and fed my entire family 🙏🏼
Just waiting for her to explain that you can't fool her, there's no Sanity Clause.
Am I the only person who saw the screaming faces in the lit matches behind them?😮
Looks like Alan…
what a great episode
Aisling is completely hilarious 😄
She’s brilliant 😂
Waiting and stopping are legally distinct terms. In both cases, the driver has to be with the vehicle, but if you're waiting, you have the engine running; whereas if you switch the engine off, you are stopped.
That can't be right because that would allow waiting.
@@marka2520 - that depends on the definition of the sign. If it signifies a clearway in which both waiting and stopping are prohibited, then it doesn't. If the sign simply signifies no stopping, then waiting is permitted, albeit a fairly stupid thing to do if the traffic is moving quickly.
Where I live they tend to use the term 'standing' rather than 'waiting' - 'no standing' means you can't be stationary there. But it only applies to the side of the road, you can still be stopped in the middle of the road waiting for the car in front to move, which is what the clearway prohibits.
Being from Missouri, it was bizarre to hear them talk about it
"theres a DLR"
even holly was ashamed of herself just then x'D
She missed the best part of Uranus, the fudge shop. "The best fudge comes from Uranus" is its honest-to-God catchphrase.
A bit too on the brown-nose, I think though.
A shit catch phrase as it goes !
I laughed out loud at what was so like a cousins Italian mimic-but found myself starting to clap at the French!
I wouldn't steal a mile marker that said 69, but I absolutely would steal a sign that said 68.9
That's a very generous sized electric tooth brush... lol.
Holly's bit about the alarm, there is a girl who plays online shooter games, and she has a voice changer that makes her sound about 4 years old, and she creeps people out in the game as she plays by talking like a child from a horror film. "pinky" or something like that. the reactions of other players are absolutely priceless. "Come play with me!" "holy f**k what the hell is that?!"
Get a grip on yourself 🤣🤣🤣
I should be writing an LOI to acquire a company but here i am thinking how accurate those accents were..
did Cally Beaton really do an attack helicopter joke in 2023...
39:04 Careful girl. Somebody is going to make that a thumbnail!
I think it’s always so fun when the panel is all women but Allen. There is such a special air to the studio.
A fishy smell?
@@Hazztech can you explain?
Reminds me of my uncle, who’s the only (and youngest) boy. He gets picked on so much, but lovingly!
@@moi5219vagina smell, perchance
In Germany there's a huge Metal Festival every year, and because drunk metalheads are, well, drunk metalheads, they went and stole the entry-signs of the town it was happening at, since that's what the festival was named after.
Ever since they just completely remove those signs before the festival starts.
I also vaguely remember them replacing them with something like "Town of Metal" or something, but then people stole those signs instead.
There is a reasonably large country where you can, if you hit the traffic lights right, drive from the East Coast to the West Coast in less than two minutes! Believe it or not, it is New Zealand
@@urbanskiboguslabsrecording7531 Not so! Portage Road, at the Northern end of the suburb of Otahuhu runs from the Manukau Harbour on the West Coast, to the headwaters of the Tamaki River on the East coast. You can drive coast to coast in under two minutes, so long as you get a green light at Gt South Road
@@urbanskiboguslabsrecording7531 Balls to admit when you're wrong - respect. And humerous too. Cannot wait to see NZ going zoon.
Why is there a screaming face on the burning matches?
Thank god! I was worried it was just me!😂
Wait until they find out about I69 in Michigan, USA
Hang on, I've got it. Police cars should have four sound settings:
- Silent
- Normal car
- Siren
- 70s funk
7:30 _"There's lots to do / On Route Sixty Two"_
3:30 Wait, did she say coast to coast was only 115 miles?! You wouldn't even be in the next state, here.... any direction and i live in the 2nd or 3rd smallest state! 😂
Holly 😂😂😂
Gotta love some adverse camber!
they renamed the austrian town of fucking to fugging because they were so annoyed of all the people stoping to take a photo and blocking the road
Yeah that was a fucking problem.
@@sstills951 ha ha love it
@@sstills951 ... only a problem in a Viagra _cul de sac_
I reckon it was a missed opportunity to charge tourists for photos and to sell signs
It’s cute how the island people idolize highway 66.
I mean what did you think was going to happen when you gave Allen the remote
*Alan
She anticipated it but knew something theatrical would happen so gave him licence.
(Gave him a ticket?)
I love how Sandi thinking about boobs makes her forget that ostriches exist
I grew up on Route 66, so I knew that wasn't America
there's a video from Tom Scott about the German model railway used to train train signalers.
34:53 "Aaaaahh... wire"
38:20 cops in my area bought some of those Zero motorcycles that are fully electric and love to sneak up on people out hiking.. scares the absolute piss out of them..
Adam CEASE forthwith you'll give someone a coronary.
Buttered malt loaf WAS great until they started using Echo marg on BR
Sandi is just ooh la la
“Have you tried popping one tit out?” 😅 Aisling Bea is a fabulous gift to humanity ❤
So, Terminal 1 caught something terminal?
They already put engine noises in some cars, to make them sound beefier.
The Blue Whale is in Catoosa, OK.
No Geoff Marshall or that Jeremy Clarkson fella...
Okay... BUT WHY ARE THE MATCHES SCREAMING FACES?!?
Ashlin B is on fire this episode
Aisling, it's Irish.
Ostrich?
Cally Beaton is a doll.
24:00 ... "rail" - a 6 inch bird is the biggest FLIGHT-LESS birds in the world ... ( have they ever heard of an ostrich !? )
Maybe watch 10 seconds further...
I am so glad I don't have to drive in England.
Wow! Talk about sensory overload, Holly, Cally AND Aisling all at one time!
28:48. She's a limber young gel, isn't she?
Henry Royce was such a perfectionist that, if he was in the workshop and saw someone using a tool either clumsily or wrongly, he would sack them on the spot.
You'd be called fascist if you did that nowadays or sued.
@@johnkean6852 Elon Musk seems to get away with doing it though
i wonder why, the skåne flag is on the wall
Because it would look out of place on toast
@@InservioLetum Like marg on malt loaf?
Why is aisling pronounced Ashley?
It isn't.
It's Irish Gaelic and pronounced, Ashling
Why must you be so American and think the world is just as much so?🤣🤣🤣🤣
I will never watch q I on utube because of the outrageous number of ads.
No one's going to make you.
If you press pause as soon as the screen goes black it cancels the ads.
(I get 3 every 10 minutes sometimes, most irritating.)
Do you also cook your own meals and complain you don't like the dish? Or buy your own clothes but complain you don't like the style? Why would you set up your computer to play RUclips ads then complain that you don't like them? Just turn them off like everyone else
Lucky Alan gets to be surrounded by all those 🔥🔥 HOT women. What a beautiful bunch of babes.
Way to show your personality, cupcake 😂 of course you're set on looks😂
What is wrong with Aisling?
Cut those freaking clothes ads
You must be overseas, it's all on-line betting ads here.
Same as Nick, it's all Fan Duel and Draft Kings ads for us Americans. Stupid as hell!
If you can get Opera web browser on your cell or PC, you can block ads and use a free VPN. It's a little wonky on mobile, you lose a few features, but it's just like using YT in any other browser. Cheers!
I think you meant to say "cut those freaking ads every 3 damned minutes!"
That's your job. Your computer can just filter them out, as can your router, a funtionality creatively termed "ad-blocking"
Press pause as soon as the screen goes black to cancel ads.
Didn't know Aisling was so thick until this episode.
She's no different to any other episode?
First question, America isn't a country. Also I'm glad she corrected that 66 doesn't go right through.
Oh for fck sakes, grandma. 🙄
What then is the United States of America if not a country?
Except it is though. Every would-be pedant wants to say that it describes continents, not a country. But it's clearly stated in the founding documents (and tellingly _not_ elsewhere). More importantly, for better or worse, 'America' and 'American' is distinctive in common usage.
2:40 "America" isn't a country...
Qi is where UK comedians go after they've given up hope and decided to accept a paycheck for acting as paid clowns for the wicked English class system.
Shame about the guests. I can’t finish the episode.
Not funny, thick and mocking the poor audience members.
Not to mention racist and sexist
Lol then scroll on. We will not miss you
Rod Stewart having a hobby and being dedicated and good at it will not appeal to most people. But those who appreciate such craftsmanship and dedication would most probably be more mature, intelligent and artistic individuals.
What everyone finds sexually appealing is different, so some women would most probably not find this hobby appealing, but it would be attractive to some women with similar interests.
What I'm trying to say is if you have similar hobbies don't be dissuaded by not being appealing to some people, be aware they are not compatible with you. Be happy when you find someone who does have similar interests, this shared interests would strengthen your relationship.
And where are your videos Dr Mongrel? 😂
