  • If a rocket was able to gain more energy than it's own acceleration + energy from gravity merely by flying sideways then we could extract free energy from it.

  • Johnny Vegas was hilarious in this episode !

  • Nonsense! Rockets accelerate best downwards where they have additional thrust from gravity.

  • @TheLoonwolf but I don't think you want to shoot them downwards, really. There is the earth. You don't want the rocket to explode on the spot ;)

  • @beex85 The Earth is usually where a missile's target would be.

  • @TheLoonwolf yes, of course. but first you would have to shoot it up in the air. for that, you need to accelerate. you dont accelerate downwards just before it hits the target. firstly, because it would cost more and secondly, that's the job of gravity ;)

  • @beex85 The question was, "In which direction do rockets accelerate best?" The correct answer is "down", because rocket acceleration + gravity acceleration > rocket acceleration - gravity acceleration. If G > 0 then R + G > R. And certainly R + G > R - G ! It could have been fired from any place, for whatever purpose. That isn't specified in the question. Fry's answer was "sideways". If it took off sideways it would just hit the nearest building or hill or whatever.

  • @TheLoonwolf yes, you're probably right. even if acceleration down would be useless. i think they thought about the most common place to fire a rocket and this is the ground. so you wouldn't fire it downwards anyway. in that case, sideways is the best. stephen said horizontal, btw ;)

  • "Is Alan Davies, WHO'S NOT LAST!!!"

    lol, it's the small things in life.

  • Wow, Pam Ayres won the episode on airplanes. Who would have guessed?

  • @blenderpanzi I'm American and I have no problem understanding Johnny Vegas.

  • @rosslinderman Well, I'm from Austria. No wonder you understand him better. After all, your native language *is* English.

  • Forget Stephen for gay pride, Johnny needs to be their new mascot!

  • Sean and Johnny new comic duo?

  • Johnny Vegas annoys me.A lot.

  • I never thought I would utter these words, but I love Sean Lock's shirt here.

  • I saw that Churchill anecdote years ago on Parkinson, soon as I saw the gaurds I thought Steve will be pedaling out the Churchill anecdote I bet you

  • Wood XD

  • pam is lovely:)

  • haha im sure sean used to be a stripper

  • I like Alan's shirt. I also like Shaun's shirt.

  • @nitramgnal Who's Shaun?

  • @t4si0r N'aww pedantic people are so... huh.

  • sean can change my guard any day...

  • I'm gonna change your guard, I'm gonna be troopin' your colour. sean is a genius.

    anyone else love stephen's voice when he says "awfully cold last night"?

  • johnny vegas was hilarious this episode

  • They should get Ricky Gervais on this!

  • @QIFanGirl I would love to see that. Except Ricky Gervais laugh is extremely annoying.

  • My favourite quote from this fantastic episode is easily Johnny's "There's a big chunk of metallic rape coming my way!!"

  • My grandmother had a coat............January was the first month of the year...........

    Yeah :)

  • Pam Ayres is actually quite knowledgeable, if only because she has quite a... unique family.

  • unique is not subject to degrees

  • I doubt it was a gradation thing. More like meaning the same as "such" in that instance.

  • How very nice of you to bother to reply so correctly to our pedant there.

  • God, I would marry Stephen!

  • @nanagnome I would, too, but he wouldn't have me 'cos I'm a ladygirl :(

  • Me too! To bad I'm a girl!

  • Sean and Johnny were really funny.

  • "I'm gonna change your guard!"

  • 'Makes you proud to be British!'

  • Thank you very much for uploading these extended versions!

  • I don't understand every other word of Johnny Vegas. :(

  • Buhr Huhr = Bear Hair.

    Just so you know.

  • @blenderpanzi Pity. Those are the funny ones.

  • Comment removed

  • @blenderpanzi  Don't feel bad, that's just about average. :)

  • @blenderpanzi I feel bad for you then, you're missing out on half of the greatest thing ever
