The Big Fat Quiz of the Year 2011

The show we wait for all year round, it's the Big Fat Quiz of the Year!
Your host is, of course, Jimmy Carr. Teams this year are:

Jonathan Ross & Jamie Oliver (The Lisping Ninnies)
David Mitchell & Eddie Izzard (Nexus-6)
Miranda Hart & David Walliams (Les Be Friends)

Unfortunately, no Noel Fielding this year :(

Of course, I do not own any rights to this video. It all belongs to the fine folks at Channel 4, who I'm sure understand that we underprivileged non-Brits need some end of the year quiz fun, too... right?

EDIT: Many are commenting on the paradigm shift here, having Walliams (who usually plays at being the teacher's pet) play the class clown this year, and I wanted to comment on this as well. Since I posted the video, I get to put my comment in the video description!

In case you haven't noticed, every year there's always the "subversive" team that does mostly joke answers. Every team plays at their own slightly different bit, but it's more of a performance than a quiz. How they act one year to another isn't connected. If all the teams gave real answers, this wouldn't be any fun. Since there's no Noel Fielding team this year, which team would you rather have giving the joke answers? Wossy/Oliver is BORING. David Mitchell cannot be irreverent or it would explode the universe. The obvious choice was Walliams & Hart, and I think they did a really good job. I found them really funny.

[SeventhEve]

@trollzorz94 just you.

[komalsamra]

[SeventhEve]

I'm seriously going to just turn off comments is all anyone can say is how much they hate certain panelists and how much they miss Noel.

[gevelhet]

@calgievlogz and you clearly hate comedy

[PeacockDreams19]

What's the name of the song in the background when they do the TV highlights?

[jjay75]

What won't Jamie Oliver do to appear on TV lol

[NaomiR329]

Lez Be Friends is actually already a song by the midnight beast <3

[heranje]

Goth Detectives instead of David and Miranda would have made this perfect.

[MrLW25]

You know what? I don't mind the Goth Detectives not being on there. Don't get me wrong, they're a good team, but the Big Fat Quiz is equally brilliant without them. Plus, how can this one be bad, when there's David Mitchell?

Noel Fielding, Russell Brand and Richard Ayoade <3
