I love it when they have an American or Aussie or anyone who isn't from the UK so they can be just as clueless as me when they go on a specifically UK humor rant.

oh god Rich Hall. it may be that it is just not my particular kind of humour but seeing him on the panel is always a big letdown for me.
I love this because Mitchell's got a hilarious laugh but more importantly because these sorts of moments are a kind worth living for
all artifice and composure stripped from you in an instant, leaving nothing but a naked shining moment of the purest, utterly genuine joy
my top three are David Mitchell, Dara Ó Briain, and Bill Bailey.
i also really like Rob Brydon, Sandi Toksvig, and Phil Jupitus.
i like Jo Brand, but she does a lot of husband jokes, and something about Sue Perkins is off to me, maybe her timing? but she's funny enough. Jimmy Carr, too. Rich Hall is just too weird for me, but i do enjoy the rare crack in his persona.
His style of humor is just so utterly bizzare that I find it to be completely delightful.
I can totally see it not resonating with people, but, personally I will take his style of completely weird humor over the generic "Oh did I just say something offensive?" style of Jimmy Carr.

yeah I do get that about Jimmy Carr. as well with the researched jokes. but Rich Hall funny is imho just deadpan anything and be American.
speaking of which and Legba's video.... there really should be more female panelistas because some of the ones that have been on just a few times have been hilarious. they are terribly hard to find on youtube I just found out.
Absolutely. But then, it's hard to find videos without the regular guests at all. I've been trying to find the episode with the guest who knew everything and Stephen Fry just gets more and more annoyed at being shown up, but it's nowhere to be found.
However, more Rob Brydon Welsh jokes because they're the best!
Can't remember who the guy was for the life of me.
But he knew everything, and kept rambling on on side tangents that pretty much only he knew about.
It was impressive but it wasn't great television.

It's amusing when you notice that Rich Hall wins games of QI because he cracks two jokes and doesn't make a guess at anything so he doesn't lose points, but it does make him dead weight sometimes.

that has to be the grey-haired guy who liked to do the Allan Rickman impression or the curley-haired one with the brown hair. probably the latter because the former was hilarious.
To be fair, every guest star on Extras was amazing.

One thing that distracts me about Would I Lie To You? is the bright, single-colour backgrounds behind the teams. Every time they cut to Lee's team I think that someone hasn't activated a green-screen effect.

I just watched an episode with Jack Whitehall and he was pretty dang good!
and fat jokes.
And Jo Brand's 'Scunthorpe' joke in whatever episode that's from was excellent.
This particular weird tangent has always been a favourite of mine.
More Rob Brydon, please!

She's our university chancellor. Pops into the union from time to time to say hello to us
those are my favorites as well

In that video.
I'm a bit slow.

hah! thank you! was driving me nuts.
my description was pretty spot on though if I say so myself..

if it was really a problem, wouldn't the BBC be giving notices to youtube?
I mean, it's not like they're hard to find, and they've been there for months, if not years
You can only be so annoyed at something that made you millions of dollars and likely got you laid like crazy.
he's pretty aware that he got the part largely because he hit the genetic lottery
by all accounts he feels like he's got to justify his ridiculous luck and has become an extremely hard-working actor
