QI - She Disguised Herself as a Man...

What prevented Henry VIII from marrying Lord Pembroke?
A funny moment from the "Blue" episode on the B series where Alan makes a guess, which Sean Lock thought sounded like a school play.

I do not own the rights to the clip.

This is one of my favourite moments from my favourite episode of QI. Sean Lock is the funniest man alive.

It's Pembroke. Anne Boleyn was the Marquess of Pembroke, traditionally a male role.

I can't pinpoint why but this clip is hilariously funny.

This has actually become an in-joke with my family... That's how much we've watched this.

I'm living near Bankstown in South-West Sydney on the East coast of Australia :)

It was reported on 6 Oct last year that that our Channel 7 digital bought the rights to Jonathan Creek and other popular British TV shows. I know that at least part of the series was broadcast here in Sydney a few years ago and I saw a few episodes at the time. Maybe it was on our public channel, ABC.

From memory I liked the puzzle of the how the crime was committed rather than who done it.

British humor never makes me laugh.

Too dry.
