Excellent! I always wait for the “Bit More News” unedited versions. Thank you!

I always try to. And always fail...😂

Upload very much appreciated, as always, and what a brilliant episode! Loved it!

[@angelamarino9404]

best way to wait for the last episode of the series, thank you very much ViVaHD ❤

Jon’s “a trombone right next to you” is the highlight of another delightful episode.

[@deheerdeheer]

Excellent episode. Jess Phillips should definitely come back, she's very funny.

[@public.public]

Did she stab the show in the back or the front?

[@laurahall3094]

The show's writers write those jokes.

[@AlanHope2013]

Agreed. The entire lineup for this show was excellent. Not often you get five people with not a dud among them. Ian even managed to turn up with a new sexy voice. More of that, please.

Jess as the host made a nice change. A good guest but I think being in charge gave it a new angle.

Clever and great fun! Thanks for the upload.

Paul and Ian are my favorite on screen couple - they might sit on opposite ends of the table but they're perfect together

Two years on and BJ still not imprisoned. Disgusting the amount of families in turmoil from missing last moments with loved ones. Right to laugh at them but still want justice.

Not a great clue on the Odd one Out, as Starship had more than one hit (We Built This City was just the biggest, for that version of the band) and was the evolution of Jefferson Starship, which evolved from Jefferson Airplane, which paved the way for the Alan Parson's Project, which I think was some kind of hovercraft.

good epsiode-nteresting to see Ms Phillips wearing a Teresa Mat style chunky necklace, maybe sees is as a way to the top.

[@anug14]

Has Ian won any time?

[@Baiko]

Not in the current series, his team won twice in the previous series, out of 9.

[@georgielancaster1356]

I have seen him win, but it is probably only one or two shows a series. You wouldn't put money down for a win. For a loss, you'd do well - if you could get someone to take the bet, every week.

[@sandwichman100]

why do women wear their hair so it invades their eyes so they must constantly do the 'flick' to see properly?

[@georgielancaster1356]

It is to do with face shape. If it is to one side, or to both sides, but with forehead showing through, they are trying to lengthen their face. Or thin it, by effect. If it is one solid sheet, like Claudia Winkelman, it is to shorten the face. I have to say, when she was wearing it past her eyes, so she had to be peering through her hair, I genuinely felt rage. I really could not be in the same room as her. It is so insanely vain, ridiculous, and childish I just do not even want to think about it any more. I know I am over the top, but she is apparently a mother. Not an airhead teen. I gather long faces can wear hair cut to chin, but if round faced, you have to have it longer or shorter - but no width - no bouncy curls around ear/cheek level. I know. Boring.

[@653j521]

@@georgielancaster1356 Does that account for so much hair gel that it looks greasy and unwashed?

Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky."

[@mrstoner2udude799]

Im an American so im you know, dumb. Is there a bridge between UK and Ireland? Dr Hannah is so beautiful.

[@asincerewoman]

Fellow American here. There is no bridge between Ireland and the UK, as of 2024. One has been proposed, I believe, but I think the issue is cost. Even if it were possible to build a bridge between the two closest parts of the islands (Scotland and Northern Ireland?), it would still be prohibitively expensive. My guess is that the bridge proposal would get more support if it connected Northern Ireland or the Republic of Ireland and a part of England or even Wales. Just guessing, but generally speaking, any place in the mid or Northern part of the UK and Scotland is considered "less than ideal" when compared to the southern parts of the UK. So still pretty London-centric and its greater suburbs in terms of economic initiatives, though it is changing now.

Too many ads for that which is not your content. Ethically these vids should be ad-free, you're neither producing nor storing the videos you present, after all.

[@georgielancaster1356]

Most of these uploaders have no control of adverts. Get no money. Can't pick where they are placed. Either yt takes the money or it goes to pay royalties to the tv company or to pay for music royalties. The uploaders get so much poo about this - and they usually get nothing. Often, the only money they do get is if you buy them a coffee, if they have a patron account. They are often just enthusiastic fans, who love to share with fellow enthusiasts.

[@georgielancaster1356]

@@desireelouw3961 yt premium pay far less to animal rescue channels, I'm told. I believe they take 45% of advertising money, as is. A couple of yters who are open about earnings, say that until you get about 50,000 views, you earn almost nothing. From 50,000 onwards, I'm told that earns $500. So $1000 for 100,000 and $10,000 for a million views. But i think that is with people letting adverts play. Some advertisers pay nothing for advert, but pay if viewer visits advertiser's site and some pay if orders are placed and paid for.

He’s not a comedian. He’s a journalist, who is famous for holding politicians to account for their actions (especially hypocritical ones) He just happens to be funny too.

[@asincerewoman]

​@sdkeenan27 I believe Private Eye is a satirical magazine, so the OP isn't totally off the mark. It isn't the same as being a comedian, true, but Hislop is supposed to use humor (i.e. satire) critically to discuss politics and current events. You both are correct!

Far from! Even if one's politics lean more conservative, it is difficult to see how you arrived at this conclusion.
