I hadn’t formed a firm opinion on Sandi when I learned she had taken over for Stephen Fry, but now I’m convinced that they couldn’t have made a better choice.
I do really like Sandi on QI. She's got that brilliantly dry, deadpan delivery. On the rare occasion she breaks out in to laughter, it makes it that more infectious!
Watching her cry with laughter at his impression of Julie Andrews is the video I want played while I'm on my deathbed, just So I can go out with a massive smile on my face 😂
As one of those assholes who jokes constantly and has an obnoxious amount of random info to share I can 10000% confirm she aas the perfect choice, knowledgeable and sharp, a dangerous combination indeed
I was watching last night's show and thinking about the number and quality of female panellists that appear since Sandi took the helm. I nearly broke a rib cackling along to the show. Also, the way she calls people "darling" sounds sincere as well as posh. What a legend!
That Trevor Noah episode made me feel a little uncomfortable. I love them all, so I feel bad thinking this, but it seemed that they were treating Noah a little too much like an exotic specimen or a novelty.
Sandi is absolute gold. Couldn't have been more happy to see her move into the QI chair. (I missed her on News Quiz for a bit, though Miles is doing a stellar job there now as well.) Anyway, she's gold.
Personally she's been my favourite guest and the ultimately perfect replacement for Stephen. Shows can fail with a change of host but QI goes from strength to strength.
In QI's case, I suspect it lives or dies on the hosts relationship with Alan, that great underrated hero.(bear in mind he's best mates with Bill and Phil, and has a delightfully disarming humour that puts most people at ease). Fry (cambridge!) Was like Alan's disapproving school master who secretly adored him, while Sandi just finds his humour startlingly funny. His Julie Andrews impression particularly.😂
Sandi was perfect, she's just as smart as Stephen, but still different, and not overbearing on the rest of the panelists. They're different, but equally great.
I knew that last comment of Jack Dee's was coming, but I still laughed myself incoherent when it came!! And now it's two years later, and I STILL laughed till it hurt! Also, I LOVE Ronni!
I found that last clip as funny but surely, it belongs more in Jack Dee's best moments compilation than Sandi's? It's not her joke, and she's barely even in the build up of that joke.
Indeed. I usually like Sandi, but that exchange was too dragged out, too unfunny, the only good thing in it was Alan's joke and the last guy's punchline.
@@megarockman Search out her own youtube channel, VoxTox, and watch the series of 10 minute chats she did through lockdown last year. You know why she knows such obscure things.
sweiland75 Nope, most women on panel shows speak less, especially if they're the only woman in the episode. If you think otherwise, that's a case of confirmation bias based on prejudice and stereotyping. Even if it was true in that moment, it wasn't a best of Sandi moment, it wasn't her joke and every clip that came before it was considerably funnier.
What I love is when Stephen and Sandi are back and forthing about the micro-mort and the bananas, Alan is like the child in between them both caught in the middle of an intellectual battle and he just finds it funny
They cut out the best bit of the goose-toilet paper exchange, which features the words "torche-culs, arse-wisps, tail-napkins, bum-fodders, bunghole-cleansers and wipe-breeches" as euphemisms for toilet paper. That bit that was cut out also used the word "betwixt", which is just inherently funny.
He'd be terrible. The show is so much nicer with Sandi and no less funny, without the sense that anyone with the temerity to argue with Fry would get huffed and puffed into oblivion (or the sense that Sandi is about to say something sweeping and offensive, which Fry sadly did). He both values intelligence and becomes annoyed by it when expressed too much, or expressed counter to his views. If he was a contestant he'd ironically probably act like Rory McGrath.
Sandi Togsvig The most «dejiligste spørsmålstegn» that could handle this task😉 I do adore how she has grown with the show «En hyggelig hilsen» from Norway
Yeah, but why was it in the best of Sandi Toksvig video? "We ran out of clips of Sandi, so here's one of another comedian making a joke at her expense"
I like how Sandi has been a participant, before she became the host, I wish Stephen would return for an episode as a contestant.
Time to move on, dude.
That's highly unlikely to happen - in any programme where there's a new host. It would undermine their position, as it immediately invokes the _"I miss XYZ person hosting this..."_ feeling.
I could see it happening for like the last few episodes of Z: have a “oftenest contestant” run?
Was a bit iffy when i heard she was taking over but shes turned out to be fucking amazing
I get the feeling Stephen would think it beneath him.
I really like the "grandpa's party eye" story. Also the disclaimer, "he wasn't careless, he was ill"
It's not a disclaimer, she made a joke on how he lost his eye, not because he was untidy, but because of a disease.
@@JohnnoNonno Did she elaborate on it at some point, I'm guessing? Out of context of that it was funny to me.
"He had two glass eyes and yet he could see" always gets me
@@JohnnoNonno You should have read the definition of the word disclaimer, before you made yourself look like an arse online.
I feel that Sandi Toksvig is very underrated. She's super intelligent and her dead pan humor is brilliant.
Also. She is someone who wouldn't put "super" in the middle of a sentence... She never sounds like someone from a reality show...
@@fingersTitan stop being so sensitive. Its just a sentence mate.
Her flat delivery of "Oh sorry, I'm over-excited" was comedically perfect.
"but how does the thousandth banana kill you?" is possibly the cutest thing in the world. my heart bursts 😅
You can see the moment where she realises the stupidity of what she just said
"I felt unwell!"
Love
I still don’t understand that bit lol
@@spakkakiwi1 to elaborate on @Comp Ability and their answer, Pottasium is actually a radioactive material, and the amount of radioactivity in one thousand bananas is comparable in lethality to the other objects mentioned
That Jack Dee line is inspired, he knew what was coming l, and waited and waited. Perfect comedic timing.
he even put a little bit of a misogynistic leer on his face as he said it. quite excellent.
You can hear him starting to say "Is it-" and then he gets cut off again. He had to hit the buzzer to get a word in edgewise.
@@tomswiftyphilo2504He does. He does and in it is mixed a tiny bit of, “Oh FK, i think I’ll stare hard as well, I may have overdone it!”
probably the best line ever on QI
'But how does the thousandth banana kill you?' She has never sounded more mentally exhausted than in that moment 😂
What moment does that happen?
Olivia Kelly 3:54

How many micromorts were in that conversation?
Well since I'm pretty sure I laughed so hard my heart stopped I think rather quite a few
Bout a thousand bananas worth
How many Micromorts to a Microrick??
@@fingersTitan rough guess in my part, but I'd say 0.25

@@peterclarke7240 I second this decision
my appreciation for this woman is endless, i'm so glad she was the one who took over, i simply adore her
Sandi deserves The Chair of Fry. She is as sharp and witty as Fry.
ComplicatedNickname Most definitely, chap.
And as knowledgeable.
As one of those assholes who jokes constantly and has an obnoxious amount of random info to share I can 10000% confirm she aas the perfect choice, knowledgeable and sharp, a dangerous combination indeed
Never thought I would say it but I prefer her . I was in mourning when Stephen said he was leaving but Sandi has nailed it
@@ConstantChaos1 You think too highly of yourself
I've never related to anyone more than Sandi in the moment where she's getting upset at not understanding the banana thing 😂
"But how does the thousandth banana kill you?" God, that breaks me up every time!
I was watching last night's show and thinking about the number and quality of female panellists that appear since Sandi took the helm. I nearly broke a rib cackling along to the show.
Also, the way she calls people "darling" sounds sincere as well as posh. What a legend!
Love Sandi. The whole banana clip is one of my a favorites. Wish you had the scene where she is swooning over Trevor Noah.
There's this bit where she needs steps for a shelf, very funny.
But Would I Lie to You is funnier than the whole show!!!
Mark Synth:RealityIzPainful I personally don't find WILTY that great. Different strokes for different folks I suppose
That Trevor Noah episode made me feel a little uncomfortable. I love them all, so I feel bad thinking this, but it seemed that they were treating Noah a little too much like an exotic specimen or a novelty.
who doesn't swoon over Trevor Noah? he's got the good looks of an Actual Prince Charming. and the brains and the elocution.
@@jpaxonreyes I definitely got that vibe too when I saw it 😐
Sandi is absolute gold. Couldn't have been more happy to see her move into the QI chair. (I missed her on News Quiz for a bit, though Miles is doing a stellar job there now as well.) Anyway, she's gold.

@@peterclarke7240she's like a protective sister, gets in on the jokes but still dotes on him, I think.
'micromort' sounds like a unit of measurement to determine how much of Voldemorts soul is in each of his Horcruxes.
Monica Spoor
Oh. My. god.
You win the day!!
It's also another name for his penis.
An alternative to That Which Should Not Be Named.
klystron2010 He'd probably call it "macromort".
Multimort is the plural for multiple voldermort horcruxes in one place at the same time
They both have the root "mort" which means death.
Jack Dee dropping in at the end is absolutely brilliant and I love it
Sandi was perfect, she's just as smart as Stephen, but still different, and not overbearing on the rest of the panelists. They're different, but equally great.
Addition to you
For them, I'd say
Perfect replacement doesn't exi-
Sandi is brilliant of course both as a guest and as host but I have to say Jack Dee’s comment right at the end there was an absolute killer!
I like how it turned into "Jack Dee's Best Moment" right at the end.
And only good moment
Bloody hilarious
Just a typical male being a ****wit
@@PurpleHusky1994 it's okay luke, you can swear on the internet.
Lol k
I love her rant/breakdown over bananas!
Worthy of David Mitchell!
I want to watch this show in its entirety so badly but I’m in the US and they frown upon learning here. 😭
Bucky Barnes - Darling Girl, the US won’t pay the License Fees we know the eps & seasons & series deserve... ;-)
Sandi: "I feel unwell!"
Me: "That's how you know you've had too many bananas."
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
I adore Sandi Toksvig.
Sandi always presents so intelligent and put together, and it's such a delight to see her completely lose her mind over bananas.
I knew that last comment of Jack Dee's was coming, but I still laughed myself incoherent when it came!!
And now it's two years later, and I STILL laughed till it hurt!
Also, I LOVE Ronni!
"There's a rather similar picture of myself at a spa."
That absolutely killed me.
"Grandpa's Party Eye" is the greatest story I've ever heard...
I found that last clip as funny but surely, it belongs more in Jack Dee's best moments compilation than Sandi's? It's not her joke, and she's barely even in the build up of that joke.
Oh well, give her her moment, she's not that funny in general. Nice, whitty maybe, but not funny.
granpa's party eye
I’m not even a Jack Dee fan but his comment at the end absolutely made this video 😂😂.. also all the love to Sandi! What a hilarious gal
Alan's delivery on that penis joke was so fucking flawless
watching this now, it makes so much sense that Stephen would choose Sandi to take over, it's evident that he's a lot of respect for her
The glass eye story was priceless!
What a wonderful and knowledgable human being Sandy is, best person to follow up Stephen! Currently in bed with a cold, a hat and a bottle here...
Why would you say that?
They say women aren't funny.
Sandy is one of those women that prove people wrong.
Just like Lucile Ball once did as well as Joan Rivers.
It's not an absolute statement; it's about generalities.
That last clip will forever be my favourite QI moment
Indeed. I usually like Sandi, but that exchange was too dragged out, too unfunny, the only good thing in it was Alan's joke and the last guy's punchline.
Na, this one is by far my favourite: ua-cam.com/video/GdvD4Fhc_K8/v-deo.html
Daraul Harris hold on, he states which is his favorite part. Why do you say na( meaning no, right?)?
You can't decide what people like the most.
Its the deadpan way he says it that makes it funnier
Pradeep Kanchan I also love how you can tell he's fighting off a smile like, "God, that was a good one."
Love Sandi. Would love an episode with Sandi as host, Victoria Coren, Liza Tarbuck, Sue Perkins and Alan Davies.
Stacey Kenny - that has been done!!
Reading Rabelais' Gargantua is an achievement in itself. It was in my syllabus and it really gave me headaches.
The extra "S"s in the words are enough to do it....
The only complaint I have for her presenting QI is that she's no longer a guest. One of, if not the best participant ever on QI.
I would love to go to the pub with Sandi. She's so lovely and really funny x
0:35 “that is bizarre, why would you say that???”
*reads exact quote she was talking about*
The host doesnt necessarily know the fact until they're reading the card.
@@JameZayer I always assumed the cards were blank and stephen fry already possessed all human knowledge
He may have the quote, but that wouldn't necessarily explain how in the world she came up with that answer independently of that card.
@@megarockman Search out her own youtube channel, VoxTox, and watch the series of 10 minute chats she did through lockdown last year. You know why she knows such obscure things.
Oh I love Sandi she has so many great story’s

this whole video was just an excuse to get that last clip in again wasn't it? well played
I totally stand by it
Wreck Tard
Yeah.... It's a disgrace to end such a great Sandy compilation with Jack Dee. Undescribably tasteless and disappointing.
He's right though.
I was waiting for it. Sandi's the best replacement for a tough job.

I wish she would speak more clearly or QI offer closed captioning.
chas ames I don't have any trouble understanding her? She speaks incredibly well
donepearce she's British and Dutch
Dutch. Ouch. As a Dane, I'd like you to refrain from confusing Denmark with the Netherlands, thank you :p
Kieren Buckley *Danish. You mean Danish.
Sandy is a global treasure. We will not have a better comedian for at least a generation.
We need a part 2!!
Jack Dee’s one liners are awesome! 😂🙈🙊🙉
I just saw her in an episode of "Whose line is it anyway". It seems, she hasn't ceased to be funny since then :)
You can see why she got the top job.
God bless Jack Dee. After delivering that line so completely deadpan, he was trying so hard not to crack!
I love this lady so much!! Noel’s little danish wife
I don’t think we’ve seen enough Sandi-Stephen together
I love the blink tick she has when she is being sarcastic. 🥰
Sandi is a genius and a master of comedy
How perfect that the last buzzer was a wolf whistle
That "I feel unwell" was really an open goal for someone to ask "how many bananas have you eaten?"
I really miss the clip of the day
I don't. They often re-uploaded the same clip.
Oh... but they are still filming new ones right?
ZaTTTel course
Priceless video , made my day . Thanks for posting . Love that show . Hope they do more
There will be as they have filmed the next series
"Sandi Toksvig's Best Moments" only 7 minutes long!??
Ah the "What was a chainsaw invented for" Rant should have been in this that was hilarious.
Thank you.
Please make a bill bailey best moments!
Easy: every time he appears on QI xD
Someone heard you: there's a. Bill Bailey compilation somewhere here. And it's terrific.
They cut out the best bit of the goose-toilet paper exchange, which features the words "torche-culs, arse-wisps, tail-napkins, bum-fodders, bunghole-cleansers and wipe-breeches" as euphemisms for toilet paper. That bit that was cut out also used the word "betwixt", which is just inherently funny.
Still waiting for Stephen Fry to return the compliment by being a candidate once in a while.
That won't happen. Poor TV production practice, as it immediately invites comparison, and undermines the new host.
He'd be terrible.

I love that Jack Dee line.
That one with Ronnie, Sandy and Jack is one of the best moments ever.
Sandi, Stephen and Sean in the same room... I'm gonna envy those who were there forever.
I wish Qi would release all the Stephen Fry hosted Qi episodes in full.
Please someone tell me where to find Sandi's impression of a swan landing on water! I cry laughing every time but I can't find it on UA-cam
The goose and the windscreen wipers quite possibly are why they looked at her as the new host of the show.
With the producer, John Lloyd watching her from the other team as well. Must have been a clincher.
The thing about the micromorts almost killed me laughing
I love her!
If one is poorly you still have one to do for you.
Sandi loosing her mind with the bananas that kill you is my favorite moment of QI. It’s so funny and sweet
I was watching a program from England named No. 73. She was a young girl at that time.
Sandi is fucking awesome! And I see why she took over the show now she is hilarious
Clearly the best woman to take over from Stephen
Gotta love sandy, bet shed be awesome company to share a bottle of single malt with.
There is none in the world com-porrrrable to a Stephen Fry, but a Sandi Toksvig.
MORE Sandi please!
Love it❤️

Yeah, but why was it in the best of Sandi Toksvig video? "We ran out of clips of Sandi, so here's one of another comedian making a joke at her expense"
Clearly the uploader has an agenda. He misses Stephen Fry as the host and can't get over QI has changed.

Sandi is a joy to watch. So glad she took Stephen's place when he retired from QI. She is a perfect fit.
