Have I Got News For You S12E09 - Alan Davies & Jennifer Paterson

[@abitmoredeayton]

I'm gonna put this on pin see if anyone is interested in it: So as of 2021,the HIGNFY community have almost every episode archived (including the VHS specials and CD/DVD specials and though some of the episodes missed the first or last few minutes) except one episode which is the 1993 comic relief special called "Have I Got A Question of Sports for you" (yes,it's a HIGNFY and QOS crossover specials) hosted by Angus with Ian and Paul as the team captains and Frank Bruno and Bill Beaumont as the guest panelists.If you have this specials taped on your old VHS or have come across it..feel free to upload it on youtube because there's a few people out there who would love to see it and you would help the Panelshow community complete the collection by a lot. Thank you !🙇‍♀️ EDIT: Someone has finally uploaded it! Go check it out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZetZn-Vq8mdesU

Yes and don't all of them look young compared to today? Paul has become less funny these days though.

[@chrisboyslimuk5186]

I also know what your picture thumbnail icon is about. I remember that they put a tub of lard in place of Cyril Smith when he declined to come on the show, or cancelled at the last minute. I think Paul Merton won with the tub of lard on his side. People feel free to correct anything I've written here, lol. :)

@@chrisboyslimuk5186 It's Roy Hattersley not Cyril Smith : )

[@chrisboyslimuk5186]

@@abitmoredeayton oops 😬 😅 thanks for that.

[@jestermoon]

Yes my friend

[@sigil8386]

Funny and relaxed. It was like watching a conversation among friends, very enjoyable.

[@donnadicasa]

"Topical news, my arse. Squirrel." Alan had a lot of fun on this one. Didn't think I could like him more. Thanks for this upload. What a treat!

[@JolynBowler]

so much fun to see Alan Davies so young along with Ian & Paul & Angus... what a show '-} 🌻

[@susanelainesanner]

Oh, my goodness, yes. And to see Jennifer Paterson at any age. What a life she led! This was a fine episode, as though the five people really enjoyed each other's company.

[@usercarefree44]

She and Paul mother and son act was hilarious 😂 Marvellous lady who enjoyed a woodbine...❤

[@josephcostello837]

These uploads are a Godsend - thank you. The episode I’m always looking for is the one with Clunes and Morrissey on separate teams and they start smoking. Great, properly irreverent TV.

Thanks for all the uploads of classic HIGNFY, you're a legend my friend.

[@ferrarim5p75]

It's so rare in 2021 to see an episode where Ian beats Paul so convincingly.

[@anthonyfrank7655]

There is an episode where Charlie Brooker is on Ian's team and he absolutely crushed it. Paul looks at the score at one point and started laughing because he so far behind. Love to see it.

[@haiwatigere6202]

This was not 2021 though.

Have a batch of virtual raspberry white chocolate muffins dear uploader! I am weirdly excited to see about a episode about news just a few years after I was born XD

[@isabellaangeline2175]

Oh wow, Lady Diana was still alive when this was filmed.

Brilliant. A great upload - many thanks. In recent years I feel there has been too much emphasis in the programme on being nasty about politicians (which they do deserve - don't get me wrong) and the silliness has been a bit lacking.

[@chrisboyslimuk5186]

Yes I agree. I been watching some early episodes of HIGNFY, and their jokes were much more funny, depending on what they were talking about. Paul Merton was usually coming out with many jokes and anecdotes, whilst bouncing his humour with and off the others and Ian Hislop of course. Now it is all just scathing attacks on politicians as you quite rightly say, and "our Paul" doesn't say as much as he used to. I liked the episodes where Martin Clunes was in the chair 💺.

Some people are famous for being talented. Some people are famous for being well, just being famous. Alan Davies has somehow got himself famous. And not even any of the above.
