Hahah same

[@arthurvasey]

You only need to say “Alexa” and she reacts - if there is anybody called Alexa in the house and you call her, Alexa the device responds! Even if you’re watching a programme on TV that features someone called Alexa, the Alexa device responds! Would help if you could change the name! Fred! Shuffle me some disco music!

took me mre than half the clip to understand that "Costume drama" means tv shows about the past

[@wunnell]

It might also be referred to as a "period drama", but that might be even more confusing.

Guys, the joke on 01:04. I dunno the reference. Please?

[@lilyedwards3859]

It's a reference to a film called Braveheart, where the main actor does a terrible scottish accent (he was quoting a line from it: 'you can take our land, you can take our lives, but you cannae do our accent.')

A top comedian once said it takes several weeks to come up with a couple of minutes of good stand up. These people must have been given these questions way in advance to come with some of this.....

[@gwishart]

It's no secret that they aren't improvising. They're told the topics for the Standup Challenge and Scenes We'd Like to See rounds in advance of recording. They aren't told the questions for the other rounds, but as they're all based on news stories from the previous week, they've got a pretty good idea of what's coming up.

It's a joke quote from the film Braveheart, which won notoriety for its flirting relationship with real history. www.factinate.com/things/28-facts-braveheart/ "Widely considered to be one of the most historically inaccurate historical epics of all time"
