Good work! Appreciate these being put up! Hi and thanks wherever you are!

[@christybradfield7812]

Hi from America! I only watched it because Of Alexander, and I have never laughed out loud like this in a long time. I love watching Pointless!

[@mydogsioux]

You should watch 'Would I Lie To You' it's seriously the funniest show on TV.

[@christybradfield7812]

@@mydogsioux Thanks for the suggestion! I watched it and I laugh a lot.

Ria Lina was a great Guest!

[@Ocker3]

Was her face twitching a lot?

[@bletheringfool]

she was really good, I was thinking that too

[@haveaseatplease]

[@Ocker3]

@@haveaseatplease the commentary is still as sharp as ever, certainly

[@zedcarr6128]

Kwasi Kwarteng hasn't got a PhD in Economics, he's got a PhD in Economic History. His thesis was called ''Political thought of the recoinage crisis of 1695-1697.'' Which is what he most likely used to come up with the figures for his mini budget. Before that, he read Classics and History at Cambridge. He's basically a historian trying to do the job of a mathematician / statistician.

[@tooshlong]

Lol just imagine the IQ required to think that Chancellor is a job for a "statistician" or "mathematician".

[@JackyRogue]

So hes a Quasi Economist

[@tooshlong]

Im actually really quite depressed that our universities are churning out low IQ thickos with very strong opinions like this, Zed Carr geezer.

[@alanb9443]

I mean Tbf he did work as a financial analyst for JP Morgan and hedge funds. U don’t get those jobs without knowing quite abit about economics. That being said it doesn’t mean he’s perfect, from all I’ve heard he’s a pretty smart guy who’s just made a massive mistake and Liz truss who I geniuely believe is an idiot is refusing to allow him to change hence the suggestion they have been arguing.

[@simonmarshall3869]

@@alanb9443 umm he's a think-tank policy writer who made a dream budget for right wing think-tanks and you think it was Truss?

[@michaelj.beglinjr.2804]

Thank you for posting this! It seems as if the older panel shows are getting canceled (looking at you, MtW), so I'm very glad this one is still on.

[@aziztcf]

MtW is getting canceled?!

[@randomdaveUK]

@@aziztcf Tory head of bbc now. Wouldn't be surprised if that goes, question time gets entirely conservative audiences and this show gets moved...

[@zackpenhaligon9904]

This show is less biased towards the left, and therefore attracts a bigger audience. Not everyone wants biased, devisive politics rammed down our throats.

[@zackpenhaligon9904]

@@randomdaveUK nonsense. If you think the tory head of the BBC is in any way a Conservative you are very much mistaken; none of the current tory lot are genuine Conservatives.

[@adam346]

technically multiplication can do both... just multiply by a number that is less than 1 but greater than 0... or just 0 if you want nothing.

[@ToddQuinlan]

True for multiplying by a number that's less than 0 as well. Edit, assuming that the multiplicand is more than 0, of course.

[@MegaPedro1975]

Thank you this is so great. Well done you 👌🏻

[@sharonmullins1957]

From US. Love your show! Great panel! Alexander Armstrong, great.

[@Sbiper]

That cheer when the poll numbers were shown is telling.

[@tcritt]

Well if you think about it, the audience reaction reflects current feeling towards the Tories, which the polls show. 🤷‍♂️

[@backto-il9ne]

What a fun joyful episode. Alexander is one of my favorite hosts I have to say.

@@AndrewTBP You don't think Ian get a copy of that script? His responses are as scripted as the host. Ian knows what the host is about to say and blurts out his pre prepared answer the moment the host finisheses. This is what you're mistaking for wit.

Silly game, and being excited that paying the energy bill. I would rather £1000 as it is a lot more than my yearly energy bill, even predicted with the cost rise.

[@flucazade]

Superb work ViVa, I could watch on the BBC but feck em

[@MxMattyB]

normally i'd agree entirely, but with mock the week getting cancelled maybe panel shows need all the official ratings they can get. but i'm an american, idk how much ratings would figure in (certainly not the few viewers who'd read this comment)

[@flucazade]

@@MxMattyB I doubt this show will ever be cancelled until Ian or Paul want to stand down, it is an institution in the UK. Mock the Week was always on shaky grounds when certain stars left

[@revbenf6870]

Fek em for producing a great satirical show? Illogical.

Multiplying (a positive number) by any number less than one will make the resultant smaller.
