QI XL G05 - Groovy

[TopHat1711]

Can anyone give me the text of "The Lord's Prayer" on latin as Stephen says it? Can't seem to find it, atleast not as his says it.

[Disestabulistic]

Birth of the cool was 49, not 57...

[vidoodeum]

@Disestabulistic It was recorded in '49, but released in '57.

[VoiceofCthulhu]

My mom met Donny Osmond, back in the day. She had picture somewhere... which I may have lost. Please don't tell her.

[greytheangel]

David Tennant would make a prefect riddler.

[hatebreed656]

34:27 am I the only one that thinks David looks angry that lee just said that

[hatebreed656]

34:27 am I the only one that David look angry that lee just said that

[MegaMrDamo]

Fantastic line up

[Assdafflabaff]

I just noticed that Stephen Fry's nose is really bent sideways, and now I can't help but stare at it.

[pangpojken]

@Assdafflabaff why did you have to write that?? DAMN YOU!! ;)

[Assdafflabaff]

@pangpojken hah

[thetarnishedsoviet]

Stepehn Fry AND David Tennant? I'm so happy I think I might die.

[wttwmusic]

Lee Mack is one of the brilliant British humourists.

[zombieregime]

i wish i could have david tennant tell me 'dont listen to the bad man' every time i hear someone talk smack. id make life so pleasant.

[Maarrii94]

Mind BLOWN! I had no idea what MK Ultra was.. I just listened to the song and didn't pay attention to the text. Well, looks like I learned something new today. Thanks again QI.

[NgaioC]

i love alan's smug face haha

[colmonhs]

Lee Mack is an attention seeking TWAT.

[blulemonade]

@colmonhs Lee Mack is just doing his job. He's here to entertain the audience, and I say he's doing a fine job.

[colmonhs]

@blulemonade

I f you like him that much why don't you marry him.

[spacecowboy5000]

@colmonhs So are you apparently.

[colmonhs]

@spacecowboy5000

I told before! I'm not letting you fuck me up the ass! That's weird.

[spacecowboy5000]

@colmonhs A shame. I have a brand new box of condoms. Ribbed.

[colmonhs]

@spacecowboy5000

Finally.

Go to gay bar and try to find someone with whom you ca connect emotionally before physically. You're a young handsome guy and I'm pretty sure you'll break some hearts.

[spacecowboy5000]

@colmonhs Young! rofl! Thanks for the compliment. I'm not gay but I thought I'd make an exception just for you. I was going to put the condom at the end of a broomstick.

[ringforrohan]

Only in QI videos I see people getting along and not making hateful comments. Yay!

[jorgepeterbarton]

smoke from your bonfire even increases cancer risk, you know.

cannabis contains similar carcinogens to tobacco, but also contains THC which is anti-cancerous, as opposed to nicotine which helps cancer develop. saying it contains multiples more carcinogens is not the same as it being more carcinogenic. who smokes 20 cannabis joints a day? most tobacco brands also contain other things added to the tobacco which equally cause health risk as much as tobacco too. cannabis is usually left alone.

[mmc786]

Low how the top two comments completely agree with eachother

[dominickkk5]

jackass: the novel. fucking perfect.

[colledge123]

weed more carcinogenic than tobacco, 3 joints as bad as 20 fags? as much as i live Allan Davies...... but thats bullshit.

[cardace11]

Great. Now the top two comments are different from the ones before making them entirely irrelevant

[conkareno]

hate it when stphen fry says hello about a billion times

[CrissCross407]

I really like Lee, but probably not best on QI

[jarvisel]

Thank you for all of these wonderful uploads!

[Damar158]

I burned down the Reichstag, cool!

[mikemurphy383]

What would the perfect QI lineup be? Stephen and Alan, Sean Lock, Bill Bailey, and... I dunno.

[JSampson1991]

@mikemurphy383 Jimmy Carr?

[mikemurphy383]

@JSampson1991 Yes.

[mikemurphy383]

From the beginning until 4:20 is all about QI wasting time and money lol

[Ferxis]

why the fuck would you mix tobacco with weed thats just not right

[profilemorbid83]

@Ferxis that's how i smoke.

what is wrong with mixing it?

[JTudders]

Love how the top two comments completely contradict eachother

[themartinguy]

@JTudders I would like your comment, yet I appreciate the irony. WAit...would it not be ironic, I you were to take one of those top spots...I am confused

[isabbygabbyorcrabby]

@JTudders not any more they don't

[JTudders]

@isabbygabbyorcrabby oh bollocks, i didn't anticipate this... :/

[Imafanofyou11]

Oh god David got a bit sad there 34:27

[Siandamy]

smoking anything causes cancer, it is un-natural, fact. The smoke itself may not be carcinogenic, but inhaling causes cells in the lungs to behave and develope abnormally because they are not predisposed to process smoke so they behave differently. I smoke cannabis and have done for 16 years, but I will never defend the substance because i know my judgement is clouded by my addiction, the facts about cannabis are clouded also by popular social mythologies.

[tekqist28]

Not very related but I just thought it would benifit some if you stayed away from the history chanel, I watched it last night and they claimed that major figures such as Albert Einstein, da Vinci, Oppenheimer and many more had been visited by aliens who gave them intelligence. And they based it on their writing about visitations or visions of angels and so on -.- blaah

[helganatt]

@tekqist28 Are you sure of this? Did you watch the whole program? Because usually they often present one side of a story quite convincingly, just to tell you why it is NOT true moments later...

[khekhem]

Lee Mack is quite unlikable.

[heroicjanitor]

Cannabis doesn't increase lung cancer risk at all...

[peeteey]

@heroicjanitor I think you've had too much ... :D

[chelski6555]

Oh my god, I am laughing so hard that I am crying! this is so awesome! and I am in love with David Tennant.

[SithLordRagnos]

Stephen Fry and David Tennant on the same stage.

I wasn't sure the world could handle the epicness...

[andythewooferguy]

for once Alan has won

[manulito2]

7 Daleks disliked this video.

[MrLittletomdj]

Cannabis 7x more carcinogenic than tobacco? RUBBISH!

[JimmySteller]

As funny as it was to hear Bill, Lee and Alan bullshit their way through Aulde Lang Syne, a part of me wishes they'd just shut up and let David Tennant sing the whole thing.

[mattttt1234]

Considering he's suuposed to a comedian, I cannot believe how unfunny Lee Mack is on this.

I think I've seen other things with him in and he was alright-ish, but here he comes off as a loud, idiotic, constantly interrupting, disruptive prick.

Maybe that's the image he wanted to give off..?

[hbanana7]

que barge, is that the British way of saying "cutting in line?"

[Babs44sun]

@hbanana7 yeah lol

[Keitou]

@hbanana7 close but it's spelt queue

[hbanana7]

@Keitou thanks. It must be a Scrabble winner word, that one. ^_^

[CassiaAleriPrice]

Alan is actually, properly a 40 years aged Ben from Outnumbered.

[BonoChes]

I laughed at David Tennant's face at 22:02. Not only does he look genuinely surprised, he seems upset he didn't know it before hahahahaha

[26wordy]

Lee Mack, ha. At school we learnt words like octangle.

[TheTelepathicKid]

Lee Mack is really annoying sometimes, but he makes up for it by being genuinely funny as well.

[10pinkiepie]

hockey on a quadbike sounds good



[zonoguiz]

Stephen fry is 78 ? No way.

[GIJordo]

@zonoguiz 24 of august 1957 that's when he was born

[Chaserpeach]

What is the name of the song on Alan's buzzer? I recognise it but I cannot remember the name :S

[Legion563]

@Chaserpeach It's Hava Nagila a Hebrew folk song that has become a staple of band performers at Jewish weddings and Bar Mitzvahs.

[Chaserpeach]

@Legion563 Thanks, that is the one :P my bad

[slatibaadfast]

@Chaserpeach 'Hava Nagila'

[bs4e]

its so nice to see people being nice on youtube. it sounds sad but its makes me happy

[robdavid1111]

@bs4e aaaaaaaaw! its the christmas spirit ;)

[Legion563]

@bs4e Im in the same boat, it warms me up a little inside when i see ppl being nice for a change. All it shows to me is that not everyone is a hate filled asshole like most youtube comments usualy tend to show.

[TheByakuzo]

@bs4e fuck you. shit face!

[spiralled]

Merry Christmas fellow christmas eve insomniacs

[PixelAmbitions]

watching this on christmas eve, cannot sleep

[nimfijntje]

@PixelAmbitions same here ;) Merry Christmas

[PixelAmbitions]

@nimfijntje Merry Christmas :D

[mutley2209]

the surrounding area of the caves in which the book of revelations was written has alot of hallucinogenic mushrooms growing wild, eating them resulted in the writing of that stupid book that has done nothing but bad things for it's religion and the world to this day. on a side note my friends sister once had a magic mushroom and ran down the street yelling there was a blue elephant chasing her lmao

[TheChesnutCafe]

Bill didn't have a pipe? what is this?

[MTMaxable]

whoever did the top comments...thanks for ruining the episode...

[rynks]

David Tennant singing Auld Lang Syne with his lovely scottish accent sends chills down my spine!

[1Point6One8]

That cow is terrifying :S

[slightlyinsaneFTW]

I can tell Bill Bailey's going to be good in this year's Doctor Who christmas special...

[20centuryfox100]

@slightlyinsaneFTW yeah! it was about time bill bailey was in doctor who!

[slightlyinsaneFTW]

David...

As a regular QI watcher, having my fave actor on the show was amazing.

[C1MM3R1AN]

Jackass: The Novel.

[NinaRinaMarina]

David is just such a babe. Add Stephen Fry into it and you get the perfect show: QI ftw!

[1casper234]

They're using alot of questions from the dutch QI in this episode :)

[thebeardedjohn]

and 11:05

[thebeardedjohn]

18:50 best part

[AtheistBrit]

Actually, Alan is right about weed being more carcinogenic, but missed a crucial point. Yes, both tobacco and cannabis smoke contain the same carcinogens, and depending on what part of the plant is smoked, marijuana can contain more of them. However, a recent review of studies on the effects of marijuana and tobacco smoke suggests that the cancer-promoting effects of these ingredients is increased by the tobacco in nicotine and reduced by the THC found in cannabis. (Robert Melamede, PhD)

[endzordays]

@AtheistBrit You're also forgetting that some people smoke about a pack or two in a day. I have never been able to smoke the equivalent amount of marijuana to even come near that.

[SeleneJessabelle1262]

I love David Tennant's laugh.

[voldemortwearsarmani]

Lee Mack is vaguely irritating, Alan Davies is lovable, Stephen Fry is cool, Bill Bailey is a legend and David Tennant is good-looking. Standard :)

[MsDDiddy]

i agree w/ Stephen's take on polygamy. if polygamy is illegal, adultery should be too.

[slytown]

@MsDDiddy I think the laws against it have more to do with taxes and citizenship than any moral stance against it.

[20centuryfox100]

@slytown yeah, i think you've got it exactly right.

[Gubbywubby]

Stephen Fry, Alan Davies, Bill Bailey, Lee Mack, and the best Doctor ever. Such a good panel.

[naryanr]

I don't like Lee Mack at all.

[TheOperaPhanatic]

Stephen trying to be cool is so patetically cool :)

[albertusj]

Stephen is so patient with Lee and Bill

[albertusj]

would it still be illegal to air this episode in Germany....because of the nazi bits?

[Merrida100]

Whenever I see Bill's shirt it looks like an advert for the series MisFits.

[GoldenChantarelle]

That Lee Mack person is really unpleasant.

[07Petri]

I love the way Bill says "yes" at 31:50!

His mouth barely moves!

[The666thBowelOfHell]

Does anybody think that Alan Davies looks like Jaquies "The Cress" from "Les Visitours"

[TheWhitesilverfang]

David has a wonderful smile

[Solario392]

@luhario Maybe it's because Mack KEEPS SHOUTING. SHOUTING MAKES EVERYTHING FUNNY A-DUUUH

[RedJimmy3]

@Solario392 Mack is just so annoying...and stupid :/

[Hobzicle]

MC Fry up in the building!!!! Davies is a badman, ya get me!!!!

[flutterby1524]

Stephen Fry saying: "Wassup" hahaha

[yajo891]

Gotta love the british.

[ClaireluvsDT]

god david tennant is fucking gorgeous. i love that man.

[ciaracustard]

David's suit is fab.

[abvflux]

"I preferred 'Jackass: The Novel'"

That's the funniest line I've ever heard in the history of funny.

[theonefoster]

@abvflux Well it was quite good, but I wouldn't say best ever.. :s

[baddmanaz]

yes, yes, i know he cheated but i'm glad alan won.

[mssonnet26]

man they're annoying.... poor stephen

[trumsolon]

Bill Bailey on jazz nazis had me in hysterics ROFL



[Chaserpeach]

@trumsolon He had me not being able to stop laughing at burning down the Reichstag, which is kinda messed up when you think about it :P

[Georgeous129]

N.U.J.V-Never underestimate jug vendors. they have powers like you wouldn't imagine, you know

[onehairybuddha]

It's "for auld lang syne" not "for the sake of".

[ashburnhouse]

I always sniff books!

[burningbobinhell]

did alan say cannabis has 7 time the carcinogens of tobacco?!

WTF

[onehairybuddha]

@burningbobinhell

Possibly a garbled factoid derived from the fact that most people would mix it with tobacco but not have a built in filter like a ciggie would.

[20centuryfox100]

@onehairybuddha yeah, plus it's alan davies. i tend to take his comments with a metric tonne of salt at any rate

[SilveradoNL]

@burningbobinhell yeah he did, but he's wrong.

Its 50%-70% more actually, not 7 times more :)

[C5H5N5O]

Nujv, I need somebody!

[anamiljus1]

I cried.:D

[Georgeous129]

when stephen talked about books decaying and that, i almost got up to check my books to make sure they were ok! opted against it lol

[GryffinPhwoar]

Oh, David Tennant, you are so terribly lovely.

[Dniwer1]

@nita2605 My Father (who was an American before changing nationalities) did once get chased down a street in New York by a chef for not tipping. Or so he claims anyways

[nita2605]

I really think Stephen makes up all his "In America.." statements because people will believe we'd do just about anything. Granted we will, but I've never seen a like a zipper line (or from a later episode a waiter chases down someone who doesn't tip, even though most waiters are paid under minimum wage, in expectation of tips).

[shwwnn]

@nita2605 waiters do chase people down for not tipping in American, they do.

[59211bart]

Love the part where Bill sneakily presses his buzzer much to David's dismay

[h4nr]

jazznatzis! LOL

[tasteslikechildren]

you sir are actually a hero. this is my favourite episode :D

[andokat]

Is that Bill's lucky QI shirt? Second episode I've watched today where he's been wearing it.

[iamXSTEALTHZX]

I prefer'd jackass the novel. Lmao!

[AngelusX92]

is alan davies jewish?

[FearlessSpinner]

ITS MAAAHH JOB!

THEYVE STOLEN MAH PAINTING GIVE ME A PEN!

[Axerty1234]

how high is alan

[fujikokun]

i don't get why people don't like lee mack...he's lovely.

[LemonsOfficial]

Lee Mack is the funniest comedian 'round imo

[cenestro]

Lee Mack is always awful.

[lazydancer22]

aw david tennants faces are the best :)

[CorriganDK]

David Tennant, Stephen Fry and Alan Davies.... oh this is as close to perfection as it gets! *sighs* :D

[accruzer]

@CorriganDK Agree! :D

[xxsangrealxx]

What did the "Christmassy audience" member say???

[jeevesthepunk]

@xxsangrealxx as far as i can tell they were just laughing at "your assistant dismounts you"

[casper123]

Great ep, thanks.

[MarsJenkar]

Insert Godwin's Law joke involving cigarettes here.

[HBCjunke]

i call bullshit that all these comics are saying they havent smoked pot; just by statistics with 5 people 2 of them had to have smoked.

[BBAstrata]

@HBCjunke just because 4/5 Americans smoked pot doesn't mean everyone else does

[HBCjunke]

@BBAstrata yeah, cause the brits dont get stoned

[BBAstrata]

@HBCjunke oh we do, just not as much as Americans do, i'm just pointing out your statistics are a little off, it would be 1 of them not 2

[BBAstrata]

@HBCjunke id say it was bill Bailey who smoked the dope

[HBCjunke]

@BBAstrata id agree, bailey has that stoner look to him bet he still smokes up. stephen most likely did in the past, he admitted to being addicted to cocaine and most people start with soft things like pot before delving into the nose candy.

[HBCjunke]

@BBAstrata id agree, bailey has that stoner look to him bet he still smokes up. stephen most likely did in the past, he admitted to being addicted to cocaine and most people start with soft things like pot before delving into the nose candy.

[JSCwrd]

@HBCjunke He also took acid in his teens/early twenties.

[failrailtf2]

No, I've only had up to 9.

Hahahaha, the delivery on that line was perfect.

[456arie]

I especially Love Lee Mack he is one of my very favorite comedians!!! <3

[stoikes]

Lee Mack is incredible, very very quick witted.

[brogin]

@stoikes Alan is quick witted, Lee Mack is a douche.
