I was looking forward to Sue Perkins and Jack Whitehall because I knew I really like them. I was surprised by Nick Newer, who I didn't know. Very funny! This is a great episode!
31:15, Q: if half a chicken lays half an egg in half a day, how long does it take a grasshopper with wooden legs to kick the watermelon seeds out of a dill pickle? A : 3 lunch boxes [____________________]
There's a picture of David Cameron behind Sue's head in this episode. In it, he looks exactly like a young Bill Clinton. It's uncanny. (Is it David Cameron?)
"obstinate kid" in French: "efant obstiné" or "gosse obstiné" - which phrasing works best? (I don't have enough experience with French to know the difference.)
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 ?"
In the intro, Russia turning off the gas to Europe is a bit rich. US and UK blew up Nord stream and now the US is providing the oil at 4x the price. Make a joke about that.
i love Sue Perkins so much!! im glad to see that she's hosted HIGNFY!

Moldova? Don't want to go there.....!!!!😂😂😂!
Thanks for download. Gosh - it seemed extra funny today.
Nick Hewer's deadpan wit is brilliant!
I liked the "You wouldn't have him in the house." So biting and funny
One of my favourite episodes.
..Thamks..
Thanks for posting.
Excellent episode
David Attenborough's Cub-O-Soup...
Nice to hear Iowa's Bix Beiderbecke get a random shout out.
Nick Hewer needs a one man show
27m34s - love the sound effect delay

Ian's team wins!
36:55 What a neckbeard. Guaranteed he carries around a plastic katana and thinks porn is real life.
hewer is unbearable, whitehall seems very nervous
You seem to be very hard to please...or just a straight up grouch.

2011: Germany: "Admitting Britain to the European Union was a bad idea"
2020: Britain: "Yes, yes it was."
No. That was 2015 Britain.
In the intro, Russia turning off the gas to Europe is a bit rich. US and UK blew up Nord stream and now the US is providing the oil at 4x the price. Make a joke about that.
I agree. However, this episode is from 2011. So the animation for the intro sequence had something to do with politics back then.
@@myoldvhstapes I'd still like to see a joke about it.
