Alright, I need John Barrowman and Aisling Bea to do a double act stand-up gig because they were *hysterical* in this episode. They played off of each other so well. I was in absolute stitches watching their antics. 🤣🤣🤣
agree, I can't remember any other pairing work so well, Bill Bailey and Alan have had some great QI moments, but as they are long-time good friends, it doesn't count 😁😁
Equally you can see how insanely unfunny Phil Jupitus is! I mean just because his daughter woks on QI, do they seriously have to drag him on every episode???
This must be the 4th or 5th time I've watched this episode because it is so hilariously funny! John and Aisling are marvelous together. And Phil is a favorite; he's not only extremely funny, but I love it when he flirts with the host. He did it with Stephen and he does it with Sandi and it's hilarious!
I saw this episode, and immediately had to look up “My Little Ukelele In My Hand”. Then I looked up “She Sits Among The Cabbages and Leeks”. Yet to check out “Mrs Miniver”.
I am in 💖 with this concoction of brilliance, entertainment, humour and absolute fun!! From Aisling to Phill its everything I could dream of on QI. I'm still laughing at Phill's first answer 🤣😂 and Aisling's cute laugh😊😂❤
I just love how the audience loses because some guy tried being funny on the large junk question.... By making the most obvious joke you could with that sort of question. One of the funniest moments in the show
Phill: Vilnius is also where Captain Marco Ramius was from in Hunt for Red October-Tom Clancy. Ramius was known as the Vilnius Schoolmaster because he trained and educated so much of the Russian navy on military tactics.
Blowing a raspberry is the only example of rhyming slang that made it into American culture. A raspberry is a raspberry tart, a fart. Love those Americans, with their cultural sensibility.,
The way to deal with children questioning rules is to explain why the rules are in place. If you can't explain, maybe remove the rule. Of course some children may not be willing to listen, but the point is to try. It is better to teach reasoning than obedience.
27:22 I lost my mind at Phil's comment about men needing to know why 28 days have passed. Literally had tears of laughter rolling down my cheeks for 5 minutes. Pure comedy gold.
The explanation for the Polish national poem isn't really correct. Adam Mickiewicz was ethnically Polish, but born in Lithuania. At the time Lithuania and parts of Poland have been absorbed into the Russian Empire - he was a fierce independentist and got exiled by the Russian authorities. He wrote his epic poem "Pan Tadeusz" while living in Paris - the opening lines don't express the Poles missing the Lithuanians, but the poet himself longing for the lands he couldn't return to. (He never saw his homeland again and died in Istanbul while helping organise Polish and Jewish troops to fight against Russia in the Crimean War.)
An early 20th century Australian comedy duo Stiffy and Mo, had a routine where one would write an 'F' on a chalkboard and ask the other what letter it was, only to be told it was a 'K'. to which the original questioner responded , How come every time I write F you see K?
Thé last time I saw this episode I had no idea of Doctor who never crossed my mind. Now I’m watching Captain Jack! Also wasn’t Aisling Bea in the new year episode of 13th time?
“Where’s your sister Gonorrhea?” The best part was that Craig started laughing three minutes later: “Did you say Chlamydia your dad’s here? That’s the stupidest thing I have ever heard!”
So the term "road rage" was invented in 1988. And exactly a decade later Catatonia released their song "Road Rage". Strange the Phill Jupitus with his Never Mind The Buzzcocks history didn't mention that. I wonder if I qualify for 5648.32546 QI points now for this quite interesting (or maybe not) fact?
It was coined at some point between 1987 and 1988, possibly as early as the 20th June 1987 when Rick Bynum was murdered for "going too slow in the fast lane" by another driver or after any number of similar incidents that occurred after that. KTLA was the TV station believed to have coined the term, though I can't find specifics. Road rage, by Catatonia, was released on 20th April 1998...so not "exactly" a decade later, even allowing for some margin of error. So, no points for a quite interesting response, as it's factually incorrect (or at least uncorroborated). They might have started writing it exactly a decade later, but the name of the song refers to a murder in December 1996 where the murderer claimed a road raging motorist attacked when it was actually her who had done the deed...the name was merely coincidental.
This is hilarious. Some of the regulations put into place by the BBC came as a result of some of the songs from Al Bowley in the 1920s. "My Canary Has Circles Under His Eyes" is always a great song.
IIRC India also has a strange relationship with UTC. Geographically, India straddles two time zones but the powers that were wanted the whole country to be on one time so they split the difference; half the country is 1/2 hour ahead of everyone else in that time zone and the other half is 1/2 hour later than everyone else in their time zone.
When I saw John Barrowman and that this was just uploaded March 2023 I got excited that Barrowman had been resurrected from 'cancultation' but this show is from 2020. Time will come for Barrowman to be forgiven and welcomed back, I hope.
@@ripdbtpoo1441 hold off on the xenophobia pal. Brits are fully on board with cancel culture as well as many other nations. I'm a Yank, as you call people, and I say It's damn near time to bring Captain Jack as portrayed by Barrowman back and I have confidence that Davies will do so.
It's so dumb like yeah it had to do with a penis but like have you met this dude he is the definition of inappropriate positivity, thats why he played the roll of captian Jack Harkness so well
They didnt blurr John's middle fingers at the end! Despite blurring the other ones at the start, I wonder if that was intentionally left in my some cheeky editor
@@mazzucac It's the cut-off point of 9pm. Before 9pm TV must be child friendly, after 9pm it's assumed all children are in bed, and anything goes, swearing, nudity, sex. That's why programmes like QI, 8oo10cdc, hicnfy are all broadcast after 9pm.
You can put chopsticks across the top of the bowl if they are not crossed. When crossed it still resembles the passing of bones so it is frowned upon, but I see tons of Japanese people putting the chopsticks on top of the bowls at the end of the meal. The Chopstick rests are actually also extremely uncommon outside of touristy places, they favour using handtowels or simply nothing, as they expect you to leave them on the tray.
In Canada we have a PSA (Heritage Moment) about Dr. Wilder Penfield. He was a brain surgeon who cured a woman who would smell burnt toast before she would have a seizure.
Sandi did not come up with the idea that the bone is a female calendar, and in fact it isn't a calendar, it's a tally stick with 28 grooves in three uneven sets.
Yes. That is correct. She DID not. As Sandi says herself in this very clip(!) : Doctor Deborah Swallow did. Here is a classic Norwegian, song. Just for you in this special moment: Når trollmor har lagt sine elleve små troll og bundet dem fast i svansen, da synger hun sakte for elleve små troll de vakreste ord hun kjenner; Ho aj aj aj aj boff, ho aj aj aj aj boff, ho aj aj aj aj boff, boff, ho aj aj aj aj boff.
@@mariannerognerud Indeed, but the suggestion that it has anything to do with menstruation is generally accepted as wrong, since the tallies are in three uneven sets. But don't let science get in the way of your need for feminist outrage.
2:00 "Name something that is so rude you can't say it on (a) BBC (comedy show)" Watching this just after Gary Lineker was suspended for criticising the Tory government's immigration policies.
Not sure, but having looked around a bit it seems they simply take information from some of his videos sometimes, and they decided to credit him. No direct involvement as far as I can tell. Could also just be a different Tom Scott lol.
The MOON takes a bit over 28 days to return exactly to the same phase and illumination. This MATTERED before artificial lighting outside. Thus, Fortnight = 14 nights, as about 1/2 the time nights are bright enough to walk about in nature without tripping. There are nearly EXACTLY 13 months in a year, and the 12 month error pisses me off, as it is totally inaccurate. Female human oestrus etc. may have tracked the moon phases NOT the other way, so their arrogation is incorrect. (After being cheated on by 3 females who could not resist others, i lived with a natural wolf, who had both the love and loyalty completely absent in human females, and whose preference for cold and night teaches much about sensory capacity and moonlight in untracked environment. He was FAR cheaper than the women who take everything and cheat)
10:58 John Barrowman playing Doctor Who with jelly babies and shuttlecocks! Funniest thing ever! I know in the 1950's it was rude to talk about reproduction on TV which is why Lucy's pregnancy on "I Love Lucy" was a such a gamechanger. Not to mention the first interracial couple on TV! An American married to a Cuban? "Lucy, you got some 'splaining to do!" You know people in the 50's were doing the deed, it just wasn't talked about on TV. Where do you think all these boomers came from? Some of this stuff reminds me of the anime "Shimoneta" which takes place in a world without dirty jokes. Some crazy sh!t happens on that show!
Oh man the Mona Lisa. I went to the Louvre on some weekday in September and there were dozens and dozens of people queueing up to it, shoulder to shoulder. What did most of the people do after coming to another country, paying for tickets and queueing for an hour do once they got to it? Take selfies or pictures. I just think that's mad. I mean, there are countless photos of the Mona Lisa available online whenever you want to see it. Why not take that time and actually just look at the painting?
Imagine those people, who went to another country, paid for tickets, queued up... And then, months later, they can look at their selfies taken in the museum, reminiscing the great time they had. As long as they're not in anyone's way (too much - as everyone is in someone's way in the Louvre), let people experience museums however they want. Taking pictures might enhance someone's experience - and it's ok.
Great. This show is the OPPOSITE of social media. On social media, a picture of a sign was posted without any context, saying "No chopsticks passing sushi in our restaurant, this is the proper etiquitte" along with rules about eating [omakase-style] sushi quickly (this is so that the chef doesn't have to wait to serve you the next piece as they're prepping the next dish for everyone to be served all at once together) and the majority of Americans in the comments replied "Fuck that, I'll eat them how I want, what a silly culture/ridiculous people." This is because most of them are used to American sushi, which is a large dragon boat of 30 sushi pieces at once, a very different experience. Only ONE of them linked to this video to explain what the host says at 9:03
It is nice, pollished and uncontroversial. Brittish panel shows do do that. Qi is prime among them, closely followed by wilty I feel and then 8 out of 10 cats does countdown. It's good to sleep with that in the background.

I think this is one of the funniest episodes of QI I've seen. John and Aisling were a perfect pairing. I'd love to see them work together again.
both are brash and quick, and that makes for exciting comedy. laughed incredibly hard this episode
agree, I can't remember any other pairing work so well, Bill Bailey and Alan have had some great QI moments, but as they are long-time good friends, it doesn't count 😁😁
It was great from start to finish. I love Phil Jupitus' random crazy outbursts as well
Barrowman playing Daleks with the shuttlecocks was hilarious !
With jelly babies!
Captain, my Captain! 🤗
"EXTERMINATE!!"
I love when Aisling Bea is on these kinds of shows. You can see how naturally funny she is and she is a joy when she's talking
She’s not that funny. She’s just good looking. She tries, but out of all the Irish women I’ve known, she’s definitely the least funny.
Agreed. She's a lovely woman
Equally you can see how insanely unfunny Phil Jupitus is! I mean just because his daughter woks on QI, do they seriously have to drag him on every episode???
If you haven’t seen the episode where she briefly takes over from sandy, it’s amazing. Unfortunately I don’t remember which episode that was :((
@@js0988 I mean I don't really have an opinion about him because I haven't seen that many episodes with him in it
Finally that magic moment where Phil does to Sandi what he used to do the Stephen. BLOODY BRILLIANT
I used to love it when Phill took the entire room away from Stephen and mercilessly bullied him.
"Stop it, stop it you BEASTS!"
29:30
Now she knows how Trevor Noah felt, when they were all going wild over him speaking Xhosa XD
I just love John Barrowman, he’s gorgeous!

John Barrowman is a legend. I love this show
I've not seen it yet. Does he get his cock out?
turning the Shuttlecocks into a Dalek was the best!!!!
His energy is so amazing i feel like having him in my life would make me the best me
What an amazing combo on this panel. Aisling is a fave and John is always wonderful.
I LOVE JOHN BARROWMAN 😩😩😩😩😩❤❤❤
Barrowman still has PTSD from Bad Wolf/The Parting of the Ways I see.
Oh I’m absolutely riddled with chlamydia! 😂
I saw this episode, and immediately had to look up “My Little Ukelele In My Hand”. Then I looked up “She Sits Among The Cabbages and Leeks”. Yet to check out “Mrs Miniver”.
I am a straight male, and John Barrowman singing "SHUTTLECOCK!" caused me to spontaneously grow ovaries which then promptly exploded!
That's John for you. 😊❤

Amazing episode. Really brightened my day.
Anyone remember Carlin's 7 words you can't say on TV? 🙊🙉🙈

@29:55 - the funniest duo of John and Aisling.
I just love how the audience loses because some guy tried being funny on the large junk question.... By making the most obvious joke you could with that sort of question. One of the funniest moments in the show
Phil's George Formby really is spot-on.
I loved this episode. I don't think I have laughed out loud so much at any others.😂
Yes!!! I think they're great together also. Sweet and slightly impish.
Yes just great.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Aisling’s buzzer should have said “Póg mo thóin” (Pogue Mahone)
A,"Cad", literally, is an Oxford person who isn't part of accademia. Born and raised in Oxford, I'm a cad.
Phill: Vilnius is also where Captain Marco Ramius was from in Hunt for Red October-Tom Clancy. Ramius was known as the Vilnius Schoolmaster because he trained and educated so much of the Russian navy on military tactics.
"Dib his vegetables". I'll clarify,; a dibber is a short pointed rod for planting onion sets and the like. I assume most think he says; dig.
This eps perfect
Ohh Aisling.. that's me sorted for a few weeks.
I'm surprised this episode has survived the RUclips profanity law, with all the banned things they talk about :P
I agree she is great girl.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
