I've gotten to know Tim Key and Mark Watson through Taskmaster (and seen Mark on QI as well). I absolutely fell in love with them. It makes sense that these 3 are friends. Please never stop working together. (whether it's on this channel or any other way). xxx Fan from the Netherlands :)
So often I've had people come at me, with breathtaking arrogance and certainty, that a birds, fish, bugs etc aren't animals. I think they get confused between the word "mammal" and "animal". Crazy, if Key says it's not an animal then he must accept that he believes it's a plant or a mineral. 😂
They already did years ago as part of the panelshow "It's your round". Panelists on that show would each have to bring their own games to play against the rest of the panel, and Tim Key brought in this game, which was then titled 'no more women'. Bridget Christie won on that occasion by adding the category "no-one else".
The rule was a name can’t rhyme with the name of a footballer that any of the three of them can name, so even though Key was out that rule still applied to him, especially considering the rule was instated after he was out and clearly said “that any of us can name”
Really enjoying these. It sparks a memory, I vaguely remember someone on RUclips called 'Blade376' playing this game, but it was called either 'No More Men' or 'No More Women', must have been about 12 years ago at a guess and this is probably the first time I've thought about it since I watched it haha
This is classic Tim Key anti comedy where he knows he’s wrong but it’s game 3 of the same night so he’s a bit drunk and it’s turned into a Kaufman type bit
I know someone who think spiders, insects, etc. aren't animals. A couple of times, I've had to remind them that if it's alive, moves around, not a bacteria or a plant - then it's an animal.

Thanks for collating each round. I think that Mark should've been out in round 9 as Prince was born Prince (Rogers) Nelson so would fall foul of indentical vowels in both names.
drumlightable It was, but Mo Salah was also used as an alternative example. To be fair though, they were discussing the popularity of the name last time so I think it’s valid to use the full/original version of it in that case. However for most other contexts I think it’s sensible to use the version of the name that the person is referred to by most often.
2:30 when you coutn down you would write 10 at hte top, when you count up you'd put 1 at the top so thats actually an argument that you do count up to z
5:35 I've watched these early games several times and only this time round did I wonder whether Alex was referring to Tim not knowing what were animals, or whether there's something else in his life that's given rise to questioning what counts as an animal. But all the other times previously I have just assumed it is referring to Tim inexplicably having this bizarre gap in his understanding of the world and Alex keeps coming up against it 😄
I'm doing a rewatch and for some reason only realising this now but.. why does Key have a framed picture of Horne's wife in frame all the time lol 17:27
Was curious about this myself and how they knew each other. I found an article where Horne spoke about how Tim lived with him for several years until he got engaged (well Key's described as being on the floor...), And how it felt like being in a relationship of three. So presumablely they're all very close friends
i know it’s been 3 years, but: A bird is a warm-blooded Vertebrate, in the class Aves, and of the kingdom of Animalia. If that Wasn’t The Fuck Enough: Animals in the biological kingdom of Animalia are multicellular and *eukaryotic* (cells with a nucleus). Animals can move independently with metabolic energy, sexually reproduce with the production of a blastula i.e. producing an embryo that IN SOME WAY develops (egg vs. womb etc), and breathe oxygen. (there are others but it’s unimportant) The Bilateria is a monophyletic/natural group known as a Clade. This group makes up a majority of known animals, and is indicative of a common ancestor and it’s descendants. The Bilateria also have *Bilater* al symmetrical, meaning you can cut it across the sagittal plane and it’ll give you approximately two identical halves. Now, this Bilateria includes the _deuterostomes_ . These sexy beasts form embryonically from anus to mouth. This clade includes 2 phylums, the most important being ye olde Chordate. These bad boys have a circulatory system, are bilaterally symmetric, have 5 distinguishing synapomorphies (thyroid, pharyngeal slits, dorsal hollow nerve chords, post-anal tails, and notochords), and a couple other things i can’t be arsed to type. The important bit is the subphyla Craniata, the rank including Fish, Amphibians, Reptiles, Mammals, and *Birds* . So, not only is a bird an animal, it’s an animal of the animalia kingdom in the most common clade, with some pretty fucking obvious indicators of its status. Summary: Jesus christ Tim, it’s not a mineral for fucks sake.
How do the name rules work with pseudonyms? If someone knew that Stormzy's initials were MO, would that be a successful challenge (because as we know from a previous episode, mo is a word)?
I’ve never seen anyone be as confident despite being so fundamentally wrong as Key is on birds/animals
Possibly confusing animal with mammal?
A bird ain’t a plant.....
But have you heard about the word? Because the word is a....
@@BeingTheHunt Some British people seem to have that problem. It was a bone of contention on QI once as well, and even Fry didn't really seem to be confident. Very weird.
Fry also said that kangaroos weren't mammals and that lice were arachnids. Zoology is perhaps not his strongest point. :-P
5:52
"Do you think a fish is an animal Timmy?"
"Do fish fly?"
This is perfection. Especially with that confused facial reaction of Alex.

"No more consecutive initials that go down the alphabet" has to be the most convoluted way I've heard someone say 'alphabetical order' in my LIFE
Consecutive means the next letter is *directly* after the previous letter on the alphabet. Alphabetical order doesn't have the same implication.
I'm still baffled that there was a controversy about whether or not birds are animals.

Also, Key blew it with No More people over 80 (or dead), as Oliver Stone is only 73 (and alive).

and isn't Prince dead?

This is half game and half bizarre sitcom, love it.
Birds are animals - how on earth did that merit such discussion!?
Came back to rewatch this game because my math teacher asked “is a bird an animal?” in class today. Didn’t mind it at all.
Imagine trying to explain to Tim Key that sea sponges are animals, that the natural sponges you can buy are in fact animal skeletons

Horne should have won when Mark said Ru Paul - no more names with a vowel that occurs in each of their names. Which in this case would be “u”
RuPaul Andre Charles so actually two As
Os - used on a daily basis by gynaecologists. Was desperately hoping that was the definition Key was going to produce!
It's just "mouth" in Latin (and used for openings in general).
Also I'm pretty sure Oliver Stone is under 80.
18:00 "So thats going one letter back in the alphabet". Surely he means up (or down) ?
Mark should have been challenged for Ru Paul.
The letter 'U' appears in both names.
RuPaul is just his first name, it’s like a cher situation
It's actually RuPaul, not Ru Paul. so it does work for that rule at least.
'Os' you can play with Scrabble in Dutch. Means 'ox'.
