[Jcolinsol]

What a fetching fez

[PianoWizzy]

Freuuuuud. XD

[liedata011]

Anyone who dreams is gay XD

[kingofarsenal11]

I had a dream I was fucking a man. I'm straight.

[EmmaBeeba]

Christopher Nolan watched this episode.

[Fortevn]

In the end, we're all Stephen Fry, Graham Chapman and Elton John. I can't say I'm offended.

[mgblue]

lol ...YOU'RE GAY

[JETHROTULLROCKS777]

Johnny just got Inceptioned

[Zalgar151]

Dreaming about having sex with women means you're gay. Funniest thing ever.

[Mynamesnigel]

"face it graham, you're gay."

[allamericandude15]

Shit, I had a dream last night. How am I going to break it to my mom??

[weirdlightsaber44]

He has a fez! Fezzes are cool!

[yellowhamsterofdoom]

So basically, if you dream, you're gay.

[XaeeD]

@yellowhamsterofdoom If that's how it is, do gay people have dreams?

[50033836]

I had a dream recently, where I was watching Fry from Futurama crying over his own gravestone. And in the dream, although I was watching Fry grieve, I was feeling his pain as if I was him.

Then I woke up crying. How wierd is that?

[BS4Tactful]

@50033836 are you sure you didn't just watch that episode of futurama where fry visits his nephew's grave stoned? the nephew is also called philip j fry.

[50033836]

@BS4Tactful I've never seen that episode. And the grave had a statue replica of Fry stood on it.

[BS4Tactful]

@50033836 type in "infosphere philip j fry II" into google, it should link you to an article about his nephew.

the picture doesn't show it, but there's actually a statue of fry on top of it. if this isn't a coincedence then i'm not sure what's going on, are you a wizard?

[50033836]

@BS4Tactful I don't know. It's really wierd.

[Mynamesnigel]

@50033836 Face it, you're gay

[TVFILMBUFF]

What everyone fails to realise is that this was in fact Stephen's dream.

[wordreet]

ROFLMAO!!! Luckily, I don't dream!

[BlackPanther5452]

ha! So if you had a dream that you were gay would that make you straight?

[youngupsessor13]

i wish Alan had been in the rest of the episode so we could have heard his dream's

'interpretation'

[TheMysticmusti]

sooo any oneiromancy experts in the house? was our favourite stephen making this all up or does every single dream in existance really make you gay because if thats the case im screwed

[trlkly]

@TheMysticmusti He wasn't making up the interpretation until he got to the gay part. He was just combining ideas from different dream interpreters.

You'll also notice that they dont' really link to being gay, but to being sexually frustrated. He basically connected them with Freud's ideas that all psychological problems stem from human sexuality.

[TheMysticmusti]

@trlkly heh and to think i learned so much about that guy in school.... oh well, thanks man good to know

[NicolSD]

That's hilarious!

[Metatality]

Dreaming makes you gay!

[z3r0t0l3r4ns]

I have the same problem with oneiromancy as I do with psychiatry, which is before I accept another human's judgement about my psychological state I must first demand proof that their own is sound. I have yet to find anyone who can furnish that proof. The trouble is you need a control, which would mean you need a perfectly sane, rational person to compare everyone else to. If you could find such a person I would then have to question why they are the sane one if everyone else is crazy.

[Ryoushadow]

@z3r0t0l3r4ns In the land of the blind, one-eye is king is pretty much what explains psychiatry.

[hayleyhands]

Inception...

[TheLuxurialist]

I think Stephen Fry use oneiromancy as a chat up line to handsome young fellows...

'Now we've discovered your true desires, why don't we just pop back to mine to delve into your other dreams...' Stephen, I love you.

[adelaidebliss]

We need to go deeper..

[MrBuch169169]

"I wish she'd said..."

[jerryhello100]

All dreams mean you're gay I guess.

[DarkZholt]

LoL

So if you dream, regardless of what dream is about, it means you're gay xD

[Nacek112]

This must be the gayest show on tv... :)

[majordbag2]

OK the last was pretty obvious in it's meaning, i.e. what else would running away from a big hairy monkey represent? ;P

[IoEstasCedonta]

It almost sounds like Phil Jupitus was intentionally giving him an easy one.

[marvinriscos]

INCEPTION

[lordkelvin1]

I (male) dreamt once that I went to a degraded, abandoned supermarket in a glittery spandex (like the mirror ball suite from the mighty boosh) with my friend to get some roe that had past its expiration date where we met an old classmate. What might that mean?

[sinnedinho]

@lordkelvin1

The friend and old classmate are actually you, so face it, you're gay!

[872463051]

@lordkelvin1 you're straight

[drummeruptheirons]

inception?

[darkaura0]

"Dream within a dream within a dream" Inception anyone?

[Furicist]

@darkaura0 People including myself have been dreaming that way all our lives, Inception just put it in to a movie, which is bizarre, because when I said 'its not an original idea because people dream like that all the time!' they claimed theyd never heard of the phenomenon!

[allamericandude15]

@darkaura0 That just means he's REALLY gay.

[Mullahgrrl]

What Gaietys!

[B182NP44]

Apparently Alan was at an Arsenal game during the live recording. He was in the show for the first 5 minutes but that was pre-recorded.

[TAfan2]

So............ Fry is straight, then? xD

[livstar93]

"you're gay!" xD

[damechastain]

Where's Alan? =[ I miss him.

[oneiros666]

Cool vid. Fits me perfectly!

[Maxstate]

I risk giving away our best kept secret and ruining the fun for many, but search for quiteinteresting in the youtube search. Change the SECOND " I " to a 1. Click on the user profile.

[linkinparkingra]

Where can I find the rest of this episode?

[gjhsu]

I fear you'll have to go through back paths of the internets, eg Bit Torrents, video searches, etc.

It's in Series D.

[RyanLFC86]

@linkinparkingra if you havent found it yet, just search quite1nteresting into google all QI's should be there

[halfhigh]

@linkinparkingra pishposh! Go to NickFromFulhams Channel for all of your services!

[marylooaustria]

Where is Alan?

[gjhsu]

Alan was beamed into the unknown at the beginning of the episode :D

[marylooaustria]

at the beginning..does this mean he was not there for the whole episode, that's too sad!

But thanks for the quick reply ;-)

[kisbie]

@gjhsu "The Unknown" being the name of the pub where the Barcelona/Arsenal Champions League final was being shown, I presume...

[a7xdude87]

@gjhsu He went to the final of a football match. I'm surprised they let him get away with it tbh lol. He still pre-recorded some of the things he said incorporeally.

[halfhigh]

@gjhsu Into a better place ;D

[daedralord1]

@marylooaustria i know u asked this a year or so ago and may have had people respond...but incase u are still overwhellemd to know :P

alan was at / in the pub watching arsenal ( the team he supports) play in the champoins league final during the taping of this :)

they lost so kinda happy

[Winamplama]

I woder how much of that was arranged beforehand. I mean obviously Stephen would have known about the dreams in andvance, but Graeme Garden didn't seem at all amused when that gay-interpretation first came up.

[Askorvorn]

i think that joke sorta back fired on him
