Imagine how freaked out the telepathy person would be if they read the mind of the invisible person.

I feel like Will had the distinct advantage of being Will

I love how jay gives a serious argument and then Sarah just said everyone looks good in goggles

"Vehicularness is in the eye of the transported"

I like the subtle lighting of the colors on the people matching the letters.

"Gnocchi is the hovercraft of carbohydrates" - Jay Foreman 2016

It's funny how Jay is making actual arguments and the other two are just like "hey wouldn't it be funny if I scared this person"

I'm noticing, Tom, that you have a particularly unique and fluid definition of "seconds."

If we (hashtag) ban legs, then only pirates will have legs-in a rather charming reversal of the status quo.

Jay Foreman and Tom Scott in the same room at the same time?!?! It's a dream come true!

I think the most disturbing thing about intensely thinking, "If telepaths exist, get out of my head!!!" would be if a random passerby just said quietly in your ear as they walked next to you, _"Don't be silly. Telepaths aren't real,"_ and just carried on walking...

Do *panthers* count as land vehicles?

"It's completely fine to be naked if you're ethereal."

“This isn’t live! . . . Please don’t try to vote.” *This sign can’t stop me ‘cause I can’t read*

ngl, this is the best live video feed I've seen on KZfaq. It's not full of awkward pauses or technical difficulties. Even for a show it's interesting and grabbing the whole way.

Will Seaward is what you get when you combine Matt Gray, Gary Brannan, and Chris Joel into a single person.

I'm sorry, this isn't a proper Tom Scott video if you aren't wearing a red shirt.

So if there were only land vehicles allowed, and you illegally got in a boat, how would anyone stop you? Law enforcement wouldn't be allowed to use boats/planes.

“To clarify everyone I am in no way Jack the Ripper” is something Jack the Ripper would say. What are you hiding Will?

If I look up the word "jolly" in the dictionary, I'm sure it's just a picture of Will.

"WE ARE NOT BANNING LEGS" and "Gnocchi is the hovercraft of carbohydrates", haha. That was amazing, I love the format and they were all hilarious.

Jay's watercraft argument is completely correct..

The real question in my opinion is... are wheelchairs land vehicles?

"In order to get to the space you've gotta go through the air... or something has gone very wrong." -- Tom Scott

Fun idea for a show! This is something I could consider watching once a week!

"That has been questionable" I see what you did there

I was with Jay, from a logical standpoint, until Will opened his mouth. This goes for every question equally.

Will seaward as a ghost would be just going "ooOOoo Panthers"

Fake vid, no red shirt.

There is a fundamental flaw in this concept. The person with the option which gets the highest initial vote is a disadvantage while the person with the least popular category has an advantage due to regression towards the mean. Basically the higher an initial stat is the greater the chance that it decreases on a second measurement- intuitively, there are fewer people eligible to change their mind to your category if it is initially popular! Imaging if someone got 100% of the votes to start with- they'd be guaranteed to lose (or at best tie 3 ways with 0 mind changes).

of the three guests, Will is definitely the most likely to be a sky/sea pirate

"Vehicularness is in the eye of the transported" will now be my yearbook quote

I like how Sara single handedly forced the applications of carbohydrates in art to be a major talking point of each other player's argument.

This is hands down Tom Scott's finest work. Gripped for 45 minutes solid.

You know you live in 2020/21 when you thought the disclaimer "this isn't live" was meant to not freak out people that there were spectators and live guests without masks and not to prevent people from trying to vote.

I was expecting Will to say "So you could pretend to be a ghost and say "These people have a terrible curse, they must come with me..." and then fight everyone with swords" because Citation Needed

map men, map men, map map map! men men men

Will has mastered the Appeal to Awesome fallacy...

I have been struggling to figure out a fun activity for my class (speech and debate) to do remotely for the persuasive speech unit... this is wonderful! Thank you so much! Zoom has a poll feature I can use with it and everything. You've saved my planning period for tomorrow! Happy dance!

I love the passive-aggressiveness in “Please don’t try to vote”

This is so bloody good. I love that style of British panel shows, this is like all of my favourite ones collapsed into one. Hope there's more of this coming?

I love this, please make this around once very week!!!!

pov: you're looking for all the commenters who think they can vote

29:58 Faloodeh a persian dessert is actually made with rice noodles so technically not pasta

Excellent stuff!

Will is like a mixture of Brian blessed and the go compare man

Who else came here from Map Men?

invisibility has been ruined for me ever since i learned that physics would make you blind and dirty.

Gnochi is the hovercraft of the carbohydrates

Tom: 'There are places in America where they use planes as cropdusters!' Me: That's literally the entire plot of 'Planes'.

I know it's been 5 years, but god do we need a part 2, Even if it's just online like the disconnected one

horses are not land vehicles but the carriage/cart/wagon they pull is definitely a land vehicle

"[...] emergency Welsh speaker [...]" Already lost it right there.

"Rice is really good if I'm hungry and wanna eat 2000 of something" - Mitch Hedberg

6:18 Tom went through the 5 stages of grief in 5 seconds

Will reminds me of Hagrid

"Land land land land land" is a valid sentence :P

Jay was the only one who focused on the culinary possibilities of his carbohydrate. I don't care about what art you can make with food. I care about having a wide variety of tasty and interesting meals to be able to create

Love your crazy game show ideas, Tom Scott! A game show that ends in a 3 way tie between 3 contestants would never get aired on traditional TV, yet here we are enjoying a laugh at such a zany and funny idea! What a fortunate generation we are.

You could still mow lawns if only aircraft were allowed - hover mowers are basically hovercraft with a blade attached to the bottom of the fan...

This is an amazing concept for a game-show type show. I hope there are many more to come.

My choices for the superpower question kinda invert if you have control: 1: Controlled Telepathy 2: Controlled Flight 3: Controlled Invisibility 4: Uncontrolled Invisibility 5: Uncontrolled Flight 6: Uncontrolled Telepathy. My reasoning is as follows: I don't really like having lots of attention on me, so being the guy who hovers down the street would be awful. I'd much rather be permanently invisible, thank you. And uncontrolled telepathy would probably drive you mad. There's a character in an anime called Code Geass who has exactly that issue and the guy is among the looniest characters I've seen in media. Conversely, controlled flight would be nice because I could get where I want to go quickly and cheaply, so it's better than the controlled invisibility because the only uses for that are pranking people, espionage, or crime, none of which I find particularly appealing. Controlled telepathy, on the other hand, would be immensely beneficial because I'd actually be able to know what to say to people (with practice, anyway). And control is innately better than lack of control.

Wow I love every game Tom comes up with ! It's always fun, the competitors are so fair play and enjoying themselves, and the concepts are always awesome ! Keep it up !

Am I the only one who immediately thought of trying a Space Hopper on a pool filled with custard?

For the potatoes, there was a 7 week period where for every single meal I had some form of potato. They are much more versatile than any of the other two, and all of their varieties are much more tasty than rice and pasta.

I can definitely believe thst Will is an alchemist

"Instead of being impressed, they're thinking 'how did you do that?!'" DO you know another definition of being impressed?

Nice bit of political ordering for the graphics, what with red on the left, blue on the right, and yellow in the middle… And also, is Will Seaward what happens if Gary Brannan and Chris Joel met going opposite directions around the LHC?

This is fantastic! Are we having the same people next episode, because they were hilarious! also #banlegs #SkyPirates

Is anyone going to point out that the initial results from 3 of the four rounds are exactly the same??

I love Jay Foreman, pressed this video without even noticing him.

"Gnocchi is the Hovercraft of the carbohydrates." Beautiful quote.

You know that mistake that did in 40:32? You did the same thing at 27:03. They are exactly the same as the vehicle ones at 14:28. The whole 3rd round was wrong!

I've gone back and watched this several time I would love to see you revive this idea and do more of it.

"Zeppelins, that's very you"; and here I am watching just shortly after the release of Tom's indoor personal airship video...

Tom, this was excellent! Please, please, please do more of these.

Is Will the long lost son of Brian Blessed?

Just rewatched this. It is still sooooo enjoyable! Might come back to this a few times every year ^^

this is one of my favourite videos on this platform, so good

well that was eminently watchable! more like this please!

Someone call the BBC, I'd definitely watch this on TV. _Hey, that rhymed, too_

Why is this not still a thing? Tom, your shows are the best - bring it to the US!

WE NEED ANOTHER QUESTIONABLE thanks from 2017

Will sounds like Gary putting on his "pretentious scholar" voice.

SPOILER!! I knew it, if the internet has a chance to f**k things up at the end, they'll take it every time!

Fanbloomintastic! Loved this so much and hope to see more of it in the future!

William Seaward even sounds like a pirate's name.

Aww, you didn't include all the hilarious pre-show stuff. Maybe a separate upload for that?

This is pure entertainment, with a bit of knowledge and other things that can really tickle your brain into happiness.

Whoever you are that finally made CC for this video, thank you very much!

Well that was brilliant, I hope there are more of these!

This was amazing, great show, hope you're going to do more of this cause I've genuinely not laughed this much in years.

I would LOVE to see more of these

That really ended on a satisfying note! I love it!!!

We need this again.

Amazingly, the lack of red shirt really threw me for a couple seconds!

25:27 technical difficulties? :D I'll go home now

how on earth did the argument for potatoes not include fries/chips or chips/crisps?

Pasta is 32bit, Rice is 64bit, and Potatoes are vector art.
