this was definitely not one of the better ones, although still enjoyable. I understand why you might be hesitant to go back to the older ones, but there is so much quality that you wouldn't want to miss. 2015 was my favourite, but they are all great
My favourite for some reason is whatever the one that has Mel B., despite it having Mel B. in it :D
@@vasilip The episode with Sean Locke razzing the children actors presentation is a wild one.
Like the episode where Claudia and Davina wanted to tag team Jon Snow by the bins.
Not sure which you meant, but the BF Anniversary Quiz of 2015 was even better than the regular BF Quiz of 2015
It's all about that Bad Dong for me.
Such a fun tradition. Love this show. Yet another that you can just pick at random and enjoy. So much Mitchell, a dash of Mack, Ayoade is on almost every one and can do no wrong. You are going to find other incredible talent and of course it's always a pleasure when Winkleman shows up.
One half of the Mighty Boosh sometimes. Equally scares and pleases me.
The best years of this quiz were when Richard Iwadi and Noel Fielding played as a team. Also, I think you would like Tavel man with Richard. Many of his travel partners you already know. It's another quintessentially British show.
Ayoade
Had a big Hollywood star on one eating burnt liquorice sweets 😂
Stacey Solomon was on WILTY claiming she sang Happy Birthday to a turtle, then criticized David’s ability to act like a pleased turtle.
... Derrick was a tortoise.
Richard's Travel man episodes are hilarious
And Joe's isn't.. Sorry but really not a fan of his..
I would 100% recommend looking out for Richard in other panel shows. Hilarious personality.
If you wanted to do other BFQ episodes, I’d suggest either the decades variant (ie BFQ 90s, 80s etc) or the BFQ of everything, which uses a more pub trivia format of questions.
I’d also recommend Tiger King: it’s just insane enough that as you start to wonder why you’re watching it, something else happens that makes you want to watch the entire thing in one sitting
I would definitely recommend watching/reacting to Travel Man - It's a comedy travel documentary series, 48 hours in... with an actor or comedienne who join him on his travels. It's very funny, and the Bob Mortimer episode is one to watch.
That Tenet moment where David is like "didn't (the director) do another movie instead?" and they all look confused is my favourite part in the entire episode.*
The "what is time, what is space" moment was hilarious as well. So was James Acaster eating ice-cream and having a sugar rush.
*Sadly it got cut from the reaction here, but it's still worth mentioning. And this was my first Bit Fat Quiz Of The Year I ever watched (a few months ago). Now I've watched a few, but this is still my favourite so far.
Hey mate Garth Marenghi's Darkplace is great uk sitcom with Richard Ayoade. It’s takes off horror soaps of the 80s, great fun. I too got into the uk shows a few yrs ago and laughing is the best medicine.
Stacey Solomon started out as an X-Factor singer, but has gradually built a career as a TV personality and presenter. Her partner Joe Swash (who you will probably also not know) also pops up on panel shows here and there. They are - to be blunt - not the sharpest tools in the box, but they are genuinely nice people and almost impossible to dislike becasue they are simply so open, honest and enthusiastic about what they are doing.
Great T-shirt! Love the LOST shout-out.
big fat quiz of the year is great. I like to watch the old episodes every now and then...
I’m sure someone’s already recommended it but you’d probably get on with the spin off that they started doing a few years back now “big fat quiz of everything” which is more like general trivia/historical questions etc - and given how much better you do on only connect than the general population I’m sure you’d absolutely smash it. Great reaction as always Neil, thanks!
John Snow, Charles Dance, and Mitchellbrook Primary School are all mainstays of Big Fat Quiz.
I'm happy you found your way back to BFQ. It's an awesome show. I would recommend giving the previous show a go, they can be fun even when you're not a Brit yourself or when a few years have passed since they originally aired.
There are also a couple of The Big Fat Quiz of Everything about, well, everything. Not year-specific. Plus, there are some BFQs about decades (the '90s, the noughties, maybe the '80s). They are also a lot of fun.
As for Richard Ayoade, I would check him out ASAP. He's hilarious. I love his incredibly dry humour.
Dude, ya gotta watch em all. Big Fat Quiz of the Year, of the Decade, and of 80s, 90s, 2000s, 2010s,and Big Fat Quiz of Everything.
Love BFQ! It’s a tradition now to watch the new one then a bunch of old ones while putzing around at home during they weird time between Christmas and New Years. Also, Richard Ayoade is great, he’s been in so many things. Watch the IT Crowd
Love this show so much, so looking forward to your reaction to this.
Have a great Christmas and New year 🎄🎅
Yes so glad you have discovered the big fat quiz lol
I love the Charles Dance parts too.
Same here, mate. TBFQY is the gateway drug to UK Tv Panel shows.
Hands down my favorite one was the BF Anniversary Quiz in 2015, with Claudia Winkleman, Jack Whitehall, Noel Fielding and Russel Brand. Amazing stuff!
Definitely can recommend Big Fat Quiz particularly the earlier ones with the "Goth Detectives" (Noel Fielding and Russel Brand)
Ok to address some of your questions - Stacey is a singer and TV presenter who came to light as a contestant in The X Factor; Maya Jama is a presenter and radio DJ; Richard was presenter of Travelman, baton now passed over to Joe. David came to TV via his sketch show with Robert Webb (That Mitchell and Webb Feeling?). BFQOTY tends to be broadcast between Xmas and NY for the year in question and as you say, questions are based on the year gone by (some questions are presented using standard formats year upon year - the school play, Charles Dance, John Snow etc). There are some other specials such as BFQ of Everything - same format, no restriction on when the answers derive. Good to see someone who takes the quizzing element seriously.
Any with Russell Brand and Noel Fielding, are the best ones!!! Also the ones with James Corden and Jack Whitehall were amazing!!
The "I.T. crowd" is hilarious if you want to watch Richard Aoade.
Check out Ayoade's Travel Man episode with Greg Davies. Chocolate and peanut butter. And cats.
Adding some thoughts at the conclusion of this reaction.
- Ayoade = more acerbic and more awkward than David Mitchell?
- Travel Man mostly bite-size (22-ish min), but with some longer specials sprinkled in.
- Lots of panel show overlap with guests.
- S02E04 w/ Davies; get to see the Taskmaster (titular) in a more natural light. Bemused vs. wrathful.
the cats and the baths! XD
Check out the Travel Man episodes, the one with Bob Mortimer is hilarious 😂
For more Richard Ayoade and David Mitchell, check out the short-lived panel show, "Was It Something I Said?". Just a brilliantly funny show. It really should've lasted more seasons.
You need to watch the back catalog of them all, especially if you want more funny stuff from Richard. Every time he teamed up with Noel Fielding, it's fantastic.
Also, Joe's Travel Man has not been released yet. I'm probably biased but I love Richard's series
Joe's first one with Bill Bailey is on over Christmas.
A suggestion, if you are looking for another fun UK quiz show try 'Richard Osman's House of Games'. The contestants are UK celebs (some will be familiar, a lot will not - but it really doesn't matter). The format is 30 mins long, many of the quizzes are fun as well as challenging, and the same contestants battle it out for a whole week (5 eps), with daily prizes awarded. There are five series of a hundred episodes to choose from, too!
You have to check out the 2006 episode with Russell Brand and Noel Fielding!
If you haven't seen Richard Ayoade in anything, any of his BFQ appearances are worth watching, but especially the Big Fat Quiz of Everything 2016 part 1, when he and Noel Fielding became surrogate parents to Jack Whitehall, or part 3, when he stood up Rob Beckett's bullying. Not Richard Ayoade, but you can't ignore The Goth Detectives!
I love all the panel shows. They’re great.
Richard Iyoade is in the IT. crowd. His character is brilliant you should check it out
You should check out the BFQ with The Goth Detectives (Russell Brand & Noel Fielding ) from 2006, and the following year where they teamed up again. These also feature Johnathan Ross, Rob Brydon and David Mitchell
Not sure if you would watch an old episode of big fat quiz. But the 2006 year with Russel brand and noel fielding is THE best one.
Big Fat Quiz was the catalyst for me too. From there I found 8/10 Cats, Cats does Countdown, WILTY, taskmaster and other panel shows. Since they're long I like to watch them while I work out or clean, etc. I like how everyone on the show ends up on all other jimmy carr affiliated shows
You absolutely need to watch Travel Man!!
Richard Ayoade is my all time favorite comedian and actor. I'm sure someone suggested the IT Crowd!
I like the Big Fat Quiz. You're right, it needs context (comedians, topics). Well done on the editing, you got my thumbs up :-) Would love for you to do this years' version! (And the Taskmaster New Year's Treat, you're going to be busy boy.) I hope you have a relaxing end of another Covid year!
Also there’s been some really great episodes in past years that I often come back to - 2008 with Sean lock is a particularly notable year. Claudia was on that year too actually!! 2014 was also excellent - David Mitchell and Richard ayoade were on the same team, one of my all time fave comedians Micky Flanagan was on with Mel B (who everyone took the piss out of and it was hilarious) and Kevin bridges and Sarah millican were the final team who are also both excellent comedians. So many more I could recommend to you but just good to start with those!!
As others are saying, you should definitely check out the earlier ones, some of them are brilliant!
I especially like the one where Greg is paired up with Richard. No spoilers from me!
You absolutely have to check out Sean Lock’s reaction to the primary school kids when he was on Big Fat Quiz. Also, if you want to try Richard Ayoade, give the IT Crowd a go. It’s a sitcom, not a quiz show, though
you should try the big fat quiz of the 90's, or the some of their other 'specials' that aren't a single year specific!
This is one of the more chillax BFQ episode of Richard Ayoade. He is best with his partner-in-crime Noel Fielding. Those two together, my tummy literally hurts from laughing too much! Noel Fielding is great with Russell Brand too!
I, too, have become a fan of a lot of the British quiz/comedy shows, some of which I've found due to your reactions. (Thanks for that, by the way!) They've really helped my mental health throughout the Covid-19 lack of social interaction. I recommend you check out The Last Leg, especially because you, like I, enjoy James Acaster's humour. Thanks for what you do! Best wishes for the holidays, from a fan in Newfoundland and Labrador. 🇨🇦🎄🎉
For prime Richard Ayoade, try the hilarious series that made him famous, 'The IT crowd'.
yes, you should definitely check out travel man. Richard Ayoade used to present it, Joe is presenting the more recent episodes.
TBFQ is always fun to watch.
There's a new British game show out called "I literally just told you", presented by Jimmy Carr. You should react to, I believe it's the second episode. It's so hilarious. The concept is testing short-term memory mixed with facts and figures to throw the contestants off.
Richard Ayoade video of highlights on the Graham Norton Show is well worth a watch. Very good ones where he is on with Cameron Diaz and another time with Olivia Coleman where he is talking about his most recent book. Well worth a watch.
Stacey(James's team mate) was on WILTY before, she had the story about being hired to sing happy birthday to a tortoise (was known for finishing 3rd on the Xfactor),It was the same episode you discovered Bob is also a dentist.....👀
My missus absolutely loves this show. I still don't quite get it, but anything that brings some joy and light into this world is to be applauded.
1. Nice reaction
2. Even nicer shirt
3. Don't watch Tiger King
4. Joe is on Travel Man in Amsterdam. Watch it.
Hello there! I wanted to say, Hi, and let you know how much I appreciate you doing a reaction to Big Fat Quiz of the Year. I found this special in 2006 and have watched the new ones each year and binged all the episodes multiple times. Just to let you know, it started in 2004 and there are decade specials and Big Fat Quiz of Everything specials and I would love to see you dive deep into these shows. Yeah, there are a few British questions and events you may not know, but a lot of the questions are global. I found you a few months ago due to your Taskmaster reactions, another great show which I somehow missed for many years and found around early fall of 2020. I love British panel shows and David Mitchel is a particular favorite. I just started your Lost reactions and I'm almost up to date and will be on the waiting game for new reactions, but that's okay. I finally subscribed last week, just wanted to make sure there would be plenty of content that would keep me watching, as I hate subscribing to someone based on one of two videos and them never watching anything they upload. I don't comment on videos very often, so you may not see me in the comments, but I am around and I appreciate all the British show reactions.
Yes please! You have got to react to Tiger King. Amazing show.
Props to your deft editing skills, and getting past the copyright sensors! It seems like you have a knack of predicting what's acceptable. Cutting away audio, video, and unnecessary footage to the bare essentials. A lot of other reaction channels don't dance the line of fair use the way you succeed in doing. I don't know how painful the process is for you, but congrats!
A lot of good stuff was missing though man
Charles Dance reading from a filthy book is hilarious too, cudos to him for being up for a larfffff
I would love for you to react to "The Trip" series of films. It will make you appreciate Rob Bryden much more, and it has that wonderful dry British humor....
Oh, BTW Neil, you have to watch the compilation of Noel and Russell or Noel and Richard together in the BFQ, they are absolutely chaotic
Should check out the Big Fat quiz with Noel Fiedling and Russell Brand.
Sinnerman - Paul Sinha (Medical Doctor and Quiz Player - on Round Britain Quiz on Radio 4 and a Chaser on the Chase)
Id suggest, you should do a reaction to the show "the IT crowd" Richard Ayoade at his best.
Richard is quality. He has written three books all excellently funny. He has also directed two cracking films: Submarine & The Double, both I highly recommend. I've met him and he's a gent.
It’s really hilarious this quiz, the other years to.
This was a calmer one. To really see a crazy one, search out ones with Noel Fielding and Richard Ayeode, or Noel Fielding and Russell Brand teams. Those go way off the rails. You can sample these in a number clips.
New one on Boxing day this year. I was at the recording, got a lovely doughnut :P
oh man, u should have to react to more of these. these are a tradition ♥
I agree that you should watch a classic one like the 2015 one with Greg & Richard - I think it was the Quiz of the 90s. Any with Noel & Russel Brand are good. Live on the edge!
Maya Jama presents a radio show I believe. She's basically famous for being attractive and...like, doing a normal job.
Stacey Solomon is a singer and TV personality. She kinda floats around from TV show to TV show.
Also, the episodes around 2008-2013 were incredible, the recent ones are a bit meh. 2008 is the best one by far, Sean Lock runs riot the whole show.
I love the way you're taking it so seriously. :) As with most British quizzes and panel games, it's the humour and banter that are the real point. No one really worries about the scores, or who 'wins'. There are serious quiz shows. You mentioned most of them: Mastermind, University Challenge, 15 to 1 and Only Connect. There is also a raft of game shows, most eminently forgettable, where contestants compete for money and other prizes. Some of these involve pretty basic general knowledge questions but I wouldn't recommend them. There's also a small sub genre of hybrid shows, combining quiz/IQ elements with a light-hearted, entertainment slant. You CAN win money or prizes but the money will be paltry and the prizes shit, deliberately so. "Pointless" is the prime example of this genre. There are endless references to the, 'Pointless host' the 'Pointless contestants', the 'Pointless trophy' which you get if you win and the 'Pointless jackpot' which you stand a slim chance of getting and which is usually not very much. The show is entertaining though I think you'd prefer, 'Richard Osman's House of Games'. That features minor celebrities competing for really crap prizes, a dartboard, pillow case or fondue set, for instance. The questions mix IQ test type questions with general knowledge and although nowhere near the level of Only Connect or University Challenge, they're fun, provide some 'brain training' and can be genuinely challenging at times. :)
Well done!
I think it plays on NYE then get's shown again 2 nights on. And then again the following night after the repete at 8pm where it's edited. But it's all available on the 4OD website.
Surprised you haven't seen Richard anywhere else. He's hilarious. Perfect deadpan
Richard Ayoade's had his own quiz show recently called Quiz Team. Quite a fun format with quite a lot of ex Taskmaster contestants appearing throughout, especially Bob Mortimer in the first episode. Highly recommended.
Yes travel man have it`s moments, The Richard Ayoade Bob Mortimer episode, you can`t go wrong with Bob.
Richard Ayoade, The I.T Crowd, nuff said.
you should definitely go back and react to some of the older ones too, a few of them are really good! It'll be good to reminisce of a simpler time lol
I think it is actually on TV on Boxing Day, the 26th.
Oh, and I thought I already had seen the 2021 Quiz earlier.
These are fun, and although there are a few local questions, as you know so many of these quizzes are about more that just the questions. Lots of great ones in past years ( including multiple "The big fat quiz of everything"" ).
So I'm not sure if you said but this is presented in the style of a weekly British Pub Quiz, which is normally six (or so) questions followed by the answers per round then normally half way through there is a picture round. There's normally 15 or so teams of four-six people. They usually host the pub quiz on the quietest night in that pub, so normally a Monday or Tuesday.
Love this show and yes you should watch and react to Tiger King!
Gadget man and Travel man are Ayoade programs as well as the IT Crowd. All worth a look.
Richard always goofs about on the show but as a dedicated film fan/director he is deadly serious on all the film rounds.
Check out Big Fat Quiz with Russell Brand and Noel Fielding. Total chaos!!
Richard A. is more of an actor and presenter than a comedian as such. He rose to prominence in The I.T. Crowd and he now tends to present shows or parts of shows that you probably wouldn't ever see outside the UK, ie not comedy panel shows, although once in a while he will turn up for things like this.
Hiya. It's difficult to find Richard Ayoade stuff to react to because the majority of his work isn't in front of a TV or other camera. It's mainly voice work, presenting and film production and direction work. What you can find, however, is pure Class. Stay safe. All the best to you.
Cats Does Countdown, Travel Man, Question Team, Crystal Maze...
There are also Big Fat Quiz of Everything. And Big Fat Quiz of decades. i'd love you to watch one of these with Claudia Winkleman shes amazing
oh damn you reacting to nmtb (never mind the buzzcocks) im sure your learning the acronym when can i catch you reacting to it
That's the original Jon Snow. The Game of Thrones one was named after him.
Jon Snow threw me too, first time I saw him, bc I know that name from Game of thrones only but he’s one of my favorite parts of this quiz.
My first exposure to Richard was 8 out of 10 cats (the original; not countdown), season 12, episode 1, I believe. That whole season was amazing.
They also have ones about the 80s and 90s.
Yes, you need to check out Travelman.
Travel Man is great. Not quiz or anything of course but the Paul Rudd, Adam Buxton, John Hamm, Bob Mortimer and Kathy Burke ones were highlights to me. Would enjoy a reaction.
I'm not terribly familiar with Richard Aoyade (sp?) yet either, but I do know he and Rob Beckett work together a lot (currently have their own show, perhaps). I hope that info leads you down an enjoyable rabbit hole!
Jon Snow's son is Dan Snow - military historian buff (channel on YT)
It’s very much like a pub quiz. Where you have rounds on a topic and all the questions get asked and you get the answers at the end of the round. I’ve heard they film for hours and hours which is why the all have food and drink with them. Some years are quite crazy with the antics, this one was quite tame in comparison as they obviously had to stay in their seats. Richard is hilarious, he just keeps straight faced always. I’ve never seen him break out of it. Travel Man is great you should check it out. Richard was the host but Joe is the new host which is airing soon.
