I heard a story from a crew member on the QI episode with Rory McGrath (cormorants/sea crows), where Stephen lost his patience with him. The idea of any panel show is give a couple of funny answers, get the audience laughing, have some fun then get to the answer. Rory, because he's incredibly knowledgeable, was just jumping to the answer everytime. So during a break in filming, Stephen just snapped at him "You're f****** ruining this!", and you can tell with Sean's messing around he wasn't impressed with him either.

The point of QI is that the obvious answer is usually the wrong one. Hence the Klaxon going off when someone gives an obvious answer and they loose points.

Yep, and the correct answer is normally ungettable, so panellists gain points for being interesting rather than being right. That's why it's called QI (Quite Interesting).

@markjones127 Ай бұрын

Glad you enjoyed it Boomer, it's a long running show with approx. 360 episodes so far, each season is all topics beginning with the same letter of the alphabet so series one was A etc. and they just finished season 22 which was V, but you know it's not a show you have to watch from episode 1 and watch every episode, if you wanted to watch some full episodes ask people to vote for which one, there are a lot of classic episodes and most people have a bunch of favourites they love. Also the points system is a nonsense, basically they just give and take points as they please, once you realise this it gets even funnier, none of it is serious, the question writers are a bunch of boffins behind the scenes referred to as the QI Elves and they can only communicate with the Klaxon and by typing text on the large screens, the head Elf and creator of the show is John Lloyd who also produced all 4 series of Blackadder. Alan Davies is a guest on every episode and it's his job to play really dumb and try and annoy Stephen, but they built up quite the bromance over time, basically the more stupid and disruptive the guests are the funnier it is, Stephen retired form the show after season 13 and was replaced by Sandi Toksvig.

@markjones127 Ай бұрын

Actually if you ever decide to react to this, I'd suggest reacting to one episode from each season which would still be 22 episodes, but less daunting than 360! In fact thinking about it more, maybe if you wanted to react to some full length panel show episodes maybe do just one a week, but just mix the shows up, do QI one week, 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown the next, then Shooting Stars, Would I Lie To You etc. I think that could work really well, just have a reaction slot once a week called the Comedy Panel Shoe Reaction. The only show which wouldn't work like that is Taskmaster where you really need to watch a full season at a time as it's a competition with points where every season is the same group of guests in every episode competing to be champion of that whole season.

Great show QI. General Ignorance is my favourite round, the only thing we know is we know nothing. The full moon thing probably comes from pre mass lighting days. Anyone who frequently walks around in the countryside at night knows there's a massive difference to visibility when the moon is full and it's clear. More light, more ability do things, more people around outside, more potential for trouble. It's similar to the difference between summer and winter concerning how well people behave in the evenings today.

The concept of QI is the creator read an encyclopedia and noticed how many things he thought he knew were actually wrong.

They get points for answers which are either correct, or incorrect but 'quite interesting', which is what QI stands for. If an urban myth is mentioned in an answer, the klaxon sounds and they get a certain number of points deducted. All of the panellists' answers are fact-checked in real time by a group of people backstage called the 'QI Elves'. They do a podcast called 'No Such Thing As A Fish'. David Mitchell has challenged the Elves on a few occasions to brilliant, ranty effect! It's a Quizzer's Paradise, which is why I watch it. The show is now hosted by Sandi Toksvig, the woman in the blue suit in the question about knock-holes.

@rogerlundstrom6926 Ай бұрын

I think the premiss they started with kind of explains it.. It's a quiz-show where the questions are supposed to be so difficult or obscure that the point isn't to get the questions right, but to not answer predictably. You don't need to "know" things to enjoy this, but of course it is more fun if you actually can enjoy a bit of smugness.. KB is right about Stephen Fry, but when he quit the show I sighed of relief when I heard Sally Toksvig took over the show.. She had been on the show a handful of times, and she and Fry didn't just have a good chemistry, but also.. She pretty much showed she knew the stuff the show was about. They didn't show it in this compilation, but the actual "Using the neck of a goose as a toilet-paper" bit, she actually got the question right.. Immediately.. Often these comedians give people some time to riff about it (or give the "obvious" answer, the commonly held misconception) BEFORE jumping to the actual answer even if they know it.. but.. Time-wise the delivery of the correct answer was impeccable.. The answer itself contained the level of "surprise" you need for it to be the punchline, and the delivery was just awesome.

@xensonar9652 Ай бұрын

QI is a panel game show where Stephen Fry asks the contestants questions with obscure and strange answers and you get points for the correct answer, more points for an interesting answer or related trivia. Several wrong answers to each question will be on an unseen list and if a contestant gives one of those answers, the klaxon will sound, the answer will flash up on the screen, and the contestant will lose points. Often a question will be one about an untrue "fact" that has circulated in pop culture or an urban legend that many people assume is true or a trick question of some kind, and the obvious answer will be incorrect, triggering the klaxon. It's possible to go into negative points of you get too many questions incorrect. Given that the contestants are mostly comedians, the show often descends into chaos, with them giving comedic and absurd answers and avoiding the obvious answers as much as they can to avoid the klaxon.
