  • Not only is the "molecular structure" nonsensical (elements do have a base molecular structure, but obviously it's all made of identical atoms), but Mendeleev actually invented the periodic table itself (and died 48 years before the element was discovered and named after him).

    I have a feeling that, if this show had been presented by Dara O'Bríain or Stephen Fry, Rich would have been punched.

    He's still entertaining, but that made my nerd synapses hurt.

  • Keep in mind, Alan Turing's work was also considered to be useless.  His efforts were instrumental in defeating the Nazis.

    We need more useless work.

  • Oh Christ people - the opening statement, '...things that you hate, to do with the number 101' should indicate where this was going. I wish most of you were trolling, but from the looks of it...

  • lmFao @ people getting annoyed at Rich Hall jokes from a show that aired ELEVEN years ago! Ha ha ha ha. {=D

  • this was kind of painfull, even for a comedy show.. No mentioning of quantum mechanics and its huuge implications on modern technology.. mobile phones and HD-TV? that stuff hasn't changed our lives at all right?

    I know it's a comedy show, but you don't have to play ignorant to be funny.

  • This comments section is depressing. He's just joking, people.

  • @FcK2420 He is clearly just making a joke out of it, probably stemmed from his idea about pretending to think it was about "things involving the number 101 which you hate"

    He is not just some idiot. He is just playing.

    How can you miss the point so completely?

  • Heh! I understood everything the lady said! Its hard to feel smart when it sounds so simple lol

  • @FcK2420 You think Rich Hall is dumb? That says more about your IQ than his. He is being deliberately provocative to get laughs.

  • @mikelheron20 By being dumb, disliking science and human progress? Some humour you got there!!

  • @FcK2420 Neither do I. I think he was being amusing.

  • @mikelheron20 I dont think Rich was being sarcastic.
