Big Fat Quiz of the Year 2006

[@shoyusha]

Oh shit, I've gone so far back in time that Jonathon Ross is insulting someone else for being old

[@MMMoyra]

Love how Noel will write an answer and by the time he says it out loud, he seems like he forgot he wrote it and it’s a whole new joke for him, or even better, now he’s embarrassed about what he wrote and struggles to say it out loud.

[@Taffoman]

Honestly this quiz became legendary at the point when Russell and Noel got that 22 point question right. Absolutely fantastic :D

[@stone5against1]

The funniest thing about this is they're really smart men and do super well if they bother trying, which they don't really unless there's something in it for them, like bonus points haha

[@wizardjokes]

@@stone5against1 they are very intelligent. That is why they are excellent comedians. But knowing tidbits doesn't reflect intelligence.

[@iamtheuberscoot]

David Walliams must feel like every other student in Hogwards when at the end of the year all their hard work was worth noting because 'Plus 1000 points for Harry Potter! Grifendor wins!' But to be totally honest: I love Noel and Russell together, so they get a pass.😹

[@VitZ9]

"Slytherin wins the House Cup! ... But wait. This year, Harry Potter has uncovered an ancient evil within the castle that, well to be honest I've always known about, but just couldn't be fucked dealing with. I mean it was on the to-do list, but I guess stopping the reincarnation of the deadliest wizard ever, just sort of slipped my mind. Anyway, 10,000 to Harry Potter! Gryffindor wins!"

It's currently July 2023, and a massive amount of the joy that I'm getting from this playlist, is the fact that there isn't an annoying ad break every feckin' 5 minutes.

I can’t remember exactly which one it was because it’s been so long ago now but there was one (one of many) where Noel and Ayoade were partners and Ayoade and Noel were both on fire with their jokes. Can’t remember which one it was now but I remember laughing at everything that came out of their mouths. It also helps that they have great comedic chemistry.

Everyone on the show knows what they are there to do, they are not there to win but to do their job and entertain. David and Rob know that they are meant to play the grumpy role and act childish because it's hilarious lol And when Noel and Russell go the 22 points the entire panel knew that they had to be the winners as it is the funniest result. Real professionals, all of them.
