I do miss Stephen Fry !

​@@bf90rononot even a little!

Me too!!

Word.

Lol they’re all amazing in their own special, sometimes boring, way! 😂

Haha, which planet are you and Sandi from?

@@DerEchteBold planet cool, obviously :p

@@klaythoring1326 That would make sense!

not cooler than a dead dude

Is it the one- When Stephen and him talked about the phrase 'bees knees' was actually 'business' in another language? I just watched that one!

Enpäs tiennyt. Millä nimellä niitä tilaa ja mistäpäin?

​@@kranckc.1983 Eli suomeksi se on nahkiainen. Nahkiaiskautena niitä saa ainakin Satakunnan alueelta. Nahkiaiskausi alkaa joskus elokuussa.

@@lastburning Opinpa uutta! Kiitos!

His partner Skinner was much, much better when he was on QI! I find it quite Strange that Baddiel has a Wikipedia entry even in German while Skinner hasn't...

I find Baddiel so unlikable. I actually felt happy when the klaxon went off on one of his answers...

Not half as irritating and unfunny as Ross Noble

@@davidlilley2522 oh don't get me started! :) ross is the funniest when he isn't on.

exactly! They are so wrong about this. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qpaUp5l5mqfUk4E.html

Out of curiosity, what fact was that?

@@TheYopogo Presumably the one written by Herodotus about the bird cleaning the crocodile teeth

Is that how you judge the quality of pea soup, then?

No, it's just that I eat more of it, if I like it. I know, I'm funny that way.

Υou are aware there's a fuckload of us who know Star Wars exists, right? You don't need a penis to be aware of painfully oversaturated pop culture

You'd be in love with most of the girls in my year than...

She knows a little about the most overrated movie series in history. Wow

Yeah it has had 40 years to permeate in pop culture. Pretty sure knowing some basic Star Wars facts isn't special any more.

Yeah who cares about personality, being a decent person, sharing the same goals or how you get on, just know two random facts from a 40+ year old movie and that's all you need.

Doesn't look real. The crocodile isn't moving. Shadow Edit: Aye, I looked it up. It was done with CGI for a bubble gum advert. There's no such symbiotic relationship, the show was right.

@@mickmickymick6927 alright bad example then haha.. but national geographic doesnt lie right??

That's Sandi, Mandi, not Sandy. And it's worth bearing in mind that Sandi's the daughter of an acclaimed foreign correspondent, was educated in Europe and America, has a 1st-class degree from Cambridge, and has been around the world, including, *canoeing across Africa*. Perhaps she's pronouncing it correctly.

@@emaldonin5282 and it's maybe worth bearing in mind that, deep as my admiration for Sandi is (and that had to be autocorrect since I hate my own name being misspelled, thanks for getting it right!), I was born and bred in South Africa, next door to Namibia, where the Namib is, and have travelled to all our neighbouring countries. So maybe, just maybe, a real live Southern African's pronunciation is the correct version?

+Symmetrie Yeah, I always sigh internally at this. Mass scales in three dimensions whereas height scales in one dimension. I remember the Mythbusters learning this the hard way when trying to downscale their bodies into miniature dummies in their early days. As Adam explains the resulting scale dummy weight, Jamie quips "so, you're made of depleted uranium..."

Not height, surface area. You're referring to the square cube law.

+Drosta Thanks for the correction :-)

I don't see any problem with the comparison. It is IF you could jump 300 times your length, yes the power required would not be the same comparison!! It is simply a way of showing the length of the jump..........

The more I watch, the more I can see the flaws in Sandi's style, she was an excellent guest, one of the best, and frankly, she's still probably the best possible host host after Stephen. In later seasons I think the quality of guest declines a bit too, possibly cause of a reduction in funding but I'm just guessing.

well yeah, but at least she's a lesbian so box ticked.

Sandi Toksvig is fantastic!

How could anyone complain about Cariad when David Baddiel was on the show?

it's a panel show with comedians not TopScience With Neil and Nye

Don't watch it then, and keep your negative comments to yourself.

Go back and watch the first few episodes of season one, Stephen was far more awkward to watch than Sandi, and having now watched for a couple of seasons of her, she has grown well into the role!!

Then stop watching and move on with your life. It's alright. For the record, it was childish when Stephen was QI Master. But QI has NEVER been dreadful.

What makes you think YOU only have a right to an opinion?! Pi-s off!

ferraridinoman oh, but you're entirely allowed to have an opinion, I was merely stating my own. No need to get your pants in a twist over it. As I said, stop watching and move on. It's all right. People do that, you know. Let it go.

ferraridinoguy, You do see the irony of your reply, don't you?

Yes, of course, because the constant sex innuendos every 10 minutes, in every single show during Stephen's period were not childish.....Especially when only men were invited, it was unwatchable. They all acted like virgin boys in a school yard imagining how it would be to see someone naked.... The last years with Stephen were annoying at times and I tend to believe that was because he was not happy anymore with the show (and how it was recorded) and didn't care as much. Sandi is great, fresh and brought life again in the show. While I do think that the show lasted as much due to Stephen, I do think that it was time for him to go and Sandi as his replacement was the best idea.
