Watching this now in 2022-2023 knowing it's paxman's last season on the show... makes me sad.

5:15-5:50 Trust Boris Johnson To Pick A Fight With Jeremy Paxman

@ProuvaireJean Жыл бұрын

He's overly hasty, argues, and gets it wrong twice on the same question, while - granted - being entertaining in the process. A portent of things to come?

Boris was very good at the Beano.

@ProuvaireJean Жыл бұрын

22:16 - Paxman's hesitation in ruling the answer incorrect is due to the fact that the movie is a remake/version of Johnson's answer under a different name.

Tony Parsons is more chipper and relaxed than I would've expected. Boris Johnson should've stuck with punditry. He was harmless then.

Quark was a perfectly satisfactory guess, not sure why Paxo felt the need to sneer. Force of habit, I suppose.

@castelodeossos3947 11 ай бұрын

Extraordinary how some people's loathing of the good Mr Paxman makes them use just any old nastiness to describe his reactions. To describe his reaction at 9:57 as a sneer is not just wrong, it's simply st*p*d. Such corruption of the language is one of the worst manifestations of Wokery.

@@castelodeossos3947 I do not loathe Jeremy Paxman. He is as far as I know a perfectly decent and honourable man, but it cannot be overlooked that he is pompous and self-regarding, which possibly explains your affinity for him.
