Killed his dad, too

David Mitchell and the music round is always the all time match made in heaven 😂❤

[@steliosstamatialis8169]

If I had any, I would pay an undetermined amount of money to hear Mel Giedroyc talk about Crossrail. Such enthusiasm for such a mild subject must be rewarded in some form. 😄

[@mindicity3874]

She got two points for a magazine about it when she submitted it as a Taskmaster prize. Is that enough reward?

[@punawelewele]

I'd rather have an undetermined amount of money. Lol.

[@HRHDMKYT]

I was quite surprised that she didn’t guess “Crossrail” as the word of the year!!!

[@morganw.4711]

“The World Health Organization has warned of a possible pandemic” has not aged well. 😂

[@MrManAmong]

Absolutely!!!

[@cuzned1375]

I love that Rob clearly told him beforehand, “Look, i’m all for the silly funtimes, but i also _really_ wanna win this sumbitch. Dilly ding, dilly dong!”

Mel is the most delightful woman in the world. I absolutely love her.

[@captainsplifford]

She's mad as a hatter, but that's definitely part of her charm.

[@seanwiederholt7554]

She's also an absolute smoke show.

I’ve seen every episode of Big Fat Quiz, some more than once, but this one I’ve seen multiple times. The teams are amazing but the Mel & Romesh combo was outstanding.

[@ericawillis.]

Same here. I think this is one of the best ever

[@Dawg_Lotion]

​@@ericawillis.Mel and Romesh are hilarious because they are clearly good friends too, I can tell Romesh absolutely loves Mel and finds her so funny

Richard and Greg is one of my all time favorites. That and Hack Whitehall and James Corden.

Thank you big fat quiz channel for acknowledging your international online popularity and for finally bringing these great formats only in a ordered manner

[@timwright3218]

Mel and Romesh have huge sibling energy.

[@burst_reverzed2467]

1:05:00 shows a diff story lol

[@puirYorick]

As I recall, they did name the ship's drone submarine Boaty McBoatface as a token consolation.

[@Mystro84]

That's actually brilliant

[@Draconightfury]

Mell's attitude is just astounding. so positive I want to be that way

[@alexread6767]

Thats a great way to put it, I admire the *heck* out of her

[@kevincaldwell4707]

Mel kicked ass in this one, her and Romesh are an awesome team.

4:10 Not often David is wrong, but a married woman being impregnated by someone other than her husband is the MOST Christmassy thing.

[@NonIntrovertial]

In David's defence, God wasn't married 😂

[@craigstoner2632]

Christmas was a pagan festival, hijacked by Christians

[@omgandwtf1]

So I've never read the Bible but I've never heard anything about the mother agreeing to carrying God's baby, so did God artificially inceminate her without her consent? If so then Christians believe in a God who on top of condoning slavery is also a rapist? Food for thought.

[@thebrutusmars]

@@omgandwtf1 Mary is told she is to bear the Son of God by Gabriel, to which she responds, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” Yes, she consented.

[@thebrutusmars]

@@omgandwtf1insane to give this “If so, the Christian God is evil???” comment when you admittedly have not read the Bible & do not bother to Google. The Annunciation is one of the most famous scenes of the Bible.

My love for Mel has no limit

[@SennaAugustus]

Do you have a Crossrail membership?

[@sfoster.23]

Crossrail starts 47:15

[@Setsuna161616]

I'd give it 50

[@SMA2343]

22:40 no, David has a point. There’s a bunch of music that’s like “oh yeah that’s a nice beat but I have no idea what they’re saying.”

[@omgandwtf1]

Basically all dubstep, the words may as well be instruments for all the sense they make.

[@whateveryasaypal5022]

Well it's music not poetry, if all you care about are the lyrics you may as well just read them without listening to the music. I mean hell, even with hip hop, I focus more on the beat and the flow of the rapper before paying attention to the actual specific words and phrases and their meanings. A song doesn't even require vocals, think about all the great instrumental music

[@omgandwtf1]

@whateveryasaypal5022 I don't remember if it's in this one but in a big fat quiz David Mitchell said " if it doesn't have words it's music not a song, by definition songs have words" I am not really sure where I stand on the quality of lyrics issue, I enjoy a lot of songs in languages I can't understand like Japanese and Chinese, but on the other hand if it's in a language I understand (English) then if I find the lyrics objectionable (like most American music) then it doesn't matter how good the soundtrack is I won't like it. Now I'll admit a good portion of my perception of a song is its origin, I'm going to be much more critical of any American music unless it's civil war or prior. I just have a deep instinctual loathing for American pop hip hop etc and anything that mimics it like Lilly Allen or most k-pop

[@lojaned]

I haven’t laughed so hard I cried in awhile. The comedic timing of the Janet and David Attenborough joke was gold. Starting at 16:40

[@Shadow-zf5uc]

"My favorite episode of planet earth."

[@NinjaNezumi]

How is it 2024 and I never saw that clip of the lady? She is having so much fun I genuinely love her and that video she made! I had such a bad day today and this little clip made me laugh - with her, not at her.

One of the best years

[@bradleybarnett9545]

@52:35 I always tried, until recently, to use correct punctuation- question marks, capital letters et cetera- in Google searches. Not because I imagined the 'people' at Google judging me, but as a personal 'keep calm & use the language properly' thing. These days I type in searches with almost no punctuation, no capitals- even for names. Sometimes I let smelling misteaks stand because I know Google will understand & find what I'm looking for anyway. I'm mostly okay with this slackness but occasionally, I feel a twinge of shame that I have really only let myself down.

[@ppleeatpple]

[@linebrunelle1004]

the urine on jelly fish sting doesn't help. lol

[@LordPubeck]

yeah, but getting Mel B to piss on your hand does ;D

[@jeremypayne5078]

Mel B "peeing" on Bear Grylls after he pretends to get stung by a jellyfish is some next-level bullshit. They're really counting on us believing a) that urine can help the sting, b) he somehow got stung even though we can see he didn't, and c) anything in that show is at all real.

[@meirasanya]

I thought the same - it's been debunked for quite some time now that peeing on a jellyfish sting helps, surely a "survival expert" would know that.

[@thebagelsproductions]

He also reported drinking urine when out of water which is exceptionally bad for you. It's filled with salts and everything else your body wants rid of and the body uses up precious water getting rid of the toxins for a 2nd time. Previously he and his team were caught staying in hotels when claiming to be sleeping rough overnight. He's no stranger to tv trickery

[@katiekat470]

Jon Snow’s joke about a “possible pandemic” hits different now eh?

[@janaloff]

i thought the same thing, sheesh 😂3

[@StubbyandShifu]

How didn't he realize a song on a silly quiz show would predict the future?😂

[@ruthielalastor2209]

I would love to see Mel and Pamela go on a crossrail trip together. 😆

[@kerlyenai]

Just a reminder: weeing on a jellyfish sting makes things WAY WORSE. Please don't do this. Regular sea water helps though.

[@thesephisloth1886]

Romesh was wondering when Mel brought out the blanket if she was going to whip it over her head and start throwing things at him

[@jeremypayne5078]

I feel for the guy in the briefing that got called out for playing Pokémon Go. He fucked up, but if I got called out like that, I'd be shitting bricks.

1:09:30 I couldn't figure out what that pill on the tongue supposed to mean. What is that?

[@deadshot8077]

It’s meant to be a tab of the drug ecstasy, commonly known as “E”.

[@alwaysaplanb3993]

Actually, music sales started with sheet music, before vinyl. (Not sure where pianola rolls fit in, either.) fascinating ideas as ever, thank you.

Attenborough incurred heavy damage during the ordeal, but experts hope to salvage the wreckage.'_

The fact that they expect people to recognize an ecstasy pill (and they've used it in other BFQ episodes) says a lot about the people who make these "say what you see" riddles. It explains why those things never make sense, for one thing.

Bullet train (Shinkansen) is the high speed rail service in Japan. Shinkansen Henkei Robo Shinkalion is an animated series based on a model train franchise, the main character is a train enthusiast and often shares obscure information about trains/railways in much the same way Mel does here regarding the Crossrail.
