My God! Peter is actually smiling! That's made my Christmas. Merry Christmas to you all.
Peter can be really funny when he wants to be. It's nice to see his lighter side and his interest in Arts and culture. I wonder what his favourite books and films are ? What Art and music does he like ?
Maybe he's had a seasonal drop of Sherry
Even then it was only with one lip.
The shape of his face and mouth slope downwards so they have to defy gravity if he wants to laugh.
😏😏😏😏😏
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Peter Hitchens is the funniest man on UA-cam.
If only he knew it
Say it as often as you like, but he really isn't. But some people are easily amused.
You're getting out too much.
Agree entirely.
EXACTLY! His special turn (which no-one can imitate) is this poorly disguised über-rage regarding the sorry state of the Tory party (since circa 1926). More!
Bamber had real class and humour. Paxman just has arrogance.
It's only a matter of time before a 'box-ticker' gets the job - then you will beg for Paxman's return.
@@SensibleMoniker Be a good one for Lord Myrie of Keev. Probably not an ideal fit for David Lammy of Diane Abbott, although her lad might be good, I understand he's a Cambridge man.
@@SensibleMoniker Well I'd lay a huge bet it will be a woman because she's suitably qualified simply because she has a uterus, and probably black or ethnic, or non-straight, just to be doubly sure the virtue-signalling is maximum by the BBC. If you are a white male, don't even bother applying for the job as you don't stand a chance.
@@nickmiller76 well unlike most of Abbot's constituents, he was privately educated. No doubt fatty claimed the fees on expenses

Last week I watched University Challenge for the first time in 25 years. There was team which included 3 young women “of colour “. Their music question was “Who recorded “I heard it through the Grapevine “”. The other team with 3 white middle aged to older white men had to answer “What musical instrument is 3 Octaves below the Oboe?”
Bassoon?
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 I think you may have missed the point he was making.
@@nickmiller76 m
Maybe point not missed..who knows ?
I also guessed Bassoon
I dont remember the 3 ladies but I did know that Molotov and Ribbontrop were possibly up to no good.
The teams didnt !
Why did they name a Russian diplomat after a cocktail? That was just silly.
Only goes to show that Stalin did have a sense of humour after all.
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 Wrong. Bassoon didn't record I heard it through the grapevine.
I stopped watching when the questions started to become woke. It was a good, simple and honest programme up until then.
Bear in mind the many females now working in TV who are mainly responsible for the lower standards and wokeness in broadcasting.
@@PH-ih1pn Cheers PH.....I'm the right age to have witnessd the massive shift in the workplace. The last thing I am saying is that women shouldn't work in fact I was pretty much a house husband many years ago whilst the missus was the main earner, (I worked part-time) but under no circumstances has the experiment worked and women have destroyed education, social services, the legal system, local councils....the list goes on.

Having done University Challenge and been on the uni quiz circuit, I can absolutely assure you that the teams train in the manner that Peter describes. You split up the expected material into predictable chunks and pick subjects. Having said that, in recent years there's been a lot more focus on topics that align with a particular worldview, and less and less of what you would consider the classics of culture, like Renaissance artists or European philosophers or historical figures. And history in general.
Leftist worldview dogma has become more prevalent in the BBC's programming? Surely not! 😮😮😮🙄🙄🙄
May I ask are you the same John Wheatley of the Lotus eaters? If so, I greatly enjoyed your articles and videos, particularly the one on the history of the British Railways. You showed more restraint than I could’ve when speaking about Ernest Marples.
@@arronjameshook There must be someone who does the Periodic Table. There's always a question on that.

New films and programmes are simply that. Some are good;some are bad. It’s subjective.
The deterioration which disappoints is only demonstrated when an old programme is corrupted in it’s format by the changing times.
Peter speaks for me as a fellow member of a certain age group.
Short and sweet from the two Peters this evening.
Spot on about University Challenge, obvious use of crib notes... sometimes the wrong answer is the right answer to the next question... also, notice the smiles when they get questions they have rehearsed
Sounds just like the Two Ronnies "Mastermind" sketch!
Oh I do love a little bit of exclusive material.
I’ve always like Peter Hitchens, I’ve a million questions for the guy! He’s always had the ability to be on point, not fluster around avoiding things.
Everyone's favourite curmudgeon, the incomparable Mr Peter Hitchens! 🎅😄
He’s right London isn’t a British city anymore. It’s very sad
You're Irish so you better get out too.
University Challenge has a black fellow whose job it is to set contemporary black questions. The game I play is to spot his questions. By coincidence or design, the School of Oriental and African Studies got the most of any episode and what’s more, the team couldn’t answer them.
What is wrong with more questions about other cultures?
@@davidbean6973 pass!
@@davidbean6973 I give up, what is wrong with it?
It would be lovely if we had a question setter from every ethnic group. There are 81 ethnic groups that start with the letter A, Armenians, Atonis for example. It would be wonderful if we could have a question setter from every ethnicity and religion and indeed every gender of every ethnicity and religion. Why stop at a man of colour? Though why knowledge doesn’t belong to everyone has yet to be answered.
Merry Christmas Hitchens and all viewers.
This needs to be a regular half hour feature with all of your guests, as it is increasingly difficult to know where to go for proper knowledge and entertainment for contrarian people like US.
I love listening to old Desert Island Disc episodes from when the programme was about interesting people, entertainment and real information. And from before “ Everything for the state. Nothing against the state. Nothing outside the state”.
Brilliance in human form. Cuts through the phonies with ease and a smirk.
Peter's Picks. Yes, I would tune into that just for the critical analysis of which he is first rate.
What is the relevance of the print of Holbein's painting "The ambassadors" on the floor in the background? I highly recommend everyone watch some documentaries about that painting and it's history, not only is it a technical masterpiece of perspective but the it's also beautiful and of great historical relevance as Britain was tearing away from the Vatican around that time.
He died in London...
When Hitchens speaks, I listen
I still can't believe the country's capital has been so utterly destroyed in less than a single lifetime.

That's progress for you.

Listening to Peter Hitchens discussing this topic makes me really miss is brother Christopher, who would not have ever made a video like this.
‘Never’
Either is grammatically correct. Christopher had a heart, you're correct.
Spot on about University Challenge. When my college was on years ago the first we heard about it was that the college was going to take part and the team had been chosen. It seemed word hadn’t got round more widely and the team consisted of a narrowly focussed classicists and theologians who predictably lost from memory in the first round.
I really don't mind University Challenge being impenetrable. Better than dumbing down like everything else.
It's not very good entertainment watching socially inept, but so called intelligent people, answering random obscure questions. Especially when you know they can't tell your the difference between a cordless drill and an impact driver. Intelligence is subjective!
You missed the point my friend.
@Stalker 123 Who cares, don't watch it then. Fun is subjective, I can't answer more than half the questions but satisfying when you can make a shot in the dark, and hey finding the best weirdos is part of the fun.
@@ianlang6058 Just an opinion.
@@Drankovich Thanks for the advice. Can I have my licence fee back then please? Lol.
The Bill Nighy film he's talking about is good but I strongly recommend the original: "Ikiru" by Kurosawa. One of the best films ever made.
Yes Ikiru is a beautiful and moving film. I'm not sure I want to see this Bill Nighy version. Nothing against him as an actor just my preference.
I don't think Kurosawa was capable of making a film that wasn't a masterpiece, at at least VERY good.
Have been watching it for 15+ years, but not this year - the past 3-4 years have seen more and more questions about Rap Music, Miscarriages of Justice, Slavery, and American 'Social Justice Warriors' - and books on the above that no-one under 40 has ever read. ANother once great BBC programme ruined by the woke BBC.
Hitchen's languid contempt is Class!
Absolutely moral picks.
The best of University Challenge is when the woke students cannot answer the woke questions.
The funniest part is the alma mater episodes where the establishment figures who have made their lives off the state cannot answer even the most basic questions.
It's interesting that if you look at archive University Challenge from the 1960's everyone introduces themselves with 'Hello' In recent years no contestant says 'Hello' they all say the American 'Hi'
Nothing wrong with that of course but an illustration how American speech is everywhere now , in a way that it wasn't 50 years ago .When I was at school if you called someone a 'guy'it would be assumed that you had seen too many American films. Now we have 'regular' trousers size instead of medium even in Marx and Spencer. Perhaps before long we'll be saying 'fall' instead of autumn and 'trash can' instead of bin and so on?
There is something wrong with that, but I appreciate your peacekeeping attitude
@@reasonablyserious Thank you
On my lifetime, for example, we've replaced 'luggage' with 'baggage', 'railway station' with 'train station', 'driving licence' with 'driver's license', 'lorry' with 'truck', 'high school' for 'secondary school' etc etc. We have of course been importing Americanisms for considerable longer than fifty years. Examples like 'I guess' and 'globe-trotter' have been with us so long we don't notice them any more.
Pedantic people, like me, will inevitably point out that we used to say 'fall' instead of 'autumn' in this country 200 years ago. Emigrants took the word with them and it never went extinct in America, whereas it did back in the UK. The word 'attorney' is another example of the same process.
Fall was in common use in this country from hundreds of years ago until well into the 19th century. It simply fell into disuse whilst continuing in the English language in the US.
@@nickmiller76 Very interesting. Thank you.
The Christmas university challenge is even worse. It’s just a bunch of BBC staffers and the odd Guardian hack
Pleasing to see how thick Owen Jones appeared to be on his recent appearance.
@@thedativecase9733it’s never disappointing watching Owen trying to be intelligent.
To win UC. You need to revise Feminist Literature. Womans Sport. Popular music by female artists and female in world politics .. these 4 are at least 30% of questions
Don't forget black history.
I find Christmas University Challenge challenging as I can’t believe how dense the graduates are and how little they know about general knowledge.
Yes.
I can't comment on the University Challenge of the past as I haven't seen any prior to about 2014, but it has definitely become more tiresome lately. The questions (as rightly pointed out) are just so random, not to mention politically correct: "Which lesbian architect born in 1833 designed the museum for Clacton-on-Sea and who was also a proponent of factory worker's rights?", "What type of cell found in several species of ribbon snake is responsible for the production of hydroxyamolates in the cerebral cortex?", "You are about to hear a piece of popular music." That one's a laugh in itself. Cue some music by Jack Robinson and His Six-String Strummers.
They employed a young black guy to come up with more 'inclusive' questions which reflected greater cultual diversity. It worked because it is now the hot topic among the Afro Carribean
community in The Commercial pub in Brixton. "Hey Dessie did you see University Challenge last night?"
@@SkillBuilder based
@@SkillBuilder what are you doing here Roger?
Woke people now hate lesbians and anything to do with working-class people - keep up for god's sake.
I should also mention that Jeremy Paxman is such an arrogant host. "No, that doesn't sound anything like Tchaikovsky's Pathétique. It is quite obviously Mahler's Resurrection."
Alright, calm down Jezzer. We can't all be clever-dicks like you.
peter has an amazing vocal timbre
University Challenge: here's why I can't watch it either:
1. Paxman thinks he's brighter than he is. He's no Bamber Gascoigne. Asking "Whhhhoooooooo?" when one of the students answers "Ibn Battuta?" is not doing you any favours.
2. Wokeness. Yes, you can be sure the students can't answer questions like "Which FEMALE scientist did X, Y and Z?" because nobody has heard of her. Marie Curie, yeah, but not much else dear BBC.
3. You can be absolutely sure... ABSOLUTELY SURE... that if one of the team has a speech impediment THEY WILL be the team captain.
E.g.
Jeremy Paxman: "Which artist painted the Night Watch?"
Team captain: "Wubens?"
Ugh...
I still like the show tbh but these are all fair points.
The Good Wife. Must check that out.
I'm only here because the one living person that reminds me of Christopher is speaking. The inflections and gestures feel comforting. Allbeit a more insufferable version. Kidding. Merry Christmas all.
Yes, but without the alcoholic accent.
University Challenge has made their questions too difficult meanwhile Mastermind has completely dumbed down compared with 20 years ago.
Peter Hitchens, do you think we pay our licence fee to have fun from the BBC ?😂😂😂😂
The BBC has fun from our licence fee.

I had to give up UC many years ago. How could you stand it so long.
i think uni challenge they get a brief of what will come up
Has Hitchens ever done reading for audio books? He has a good voice for it, along with the now deceased Christopher Lee.
All 4 is impossible to watch because of the relentless, interminable advertisements.
I actually still watch and enjoy University Challenge, but he's dead right about the coaching part. The way I clocked on to this is I chose certain specialities to do a bit of swatting up on a few years back. I started by committing to getting 40% right, which is to say the percentage I'd need to more than carry my weight in a four man team, but before long my expectations shrank and shrank and eventually I was down to about 25%. I'm no Einstein, but am a successful amateur quizzer and it was just more and more obvious that the four men had to spread the topics thinner and thinner, and it became a test of memory rather than passion. Now I watch it just for the Art, Literature, History and Geography sections that I still enjoy. The rest could drop off the Earth and nothing of value would be lost.
You could up your literature score by having a revise of the Virago back catalogue ...
declick your audio
He actually has a good point. Years ago 4 of us actually got banned from using pub quiz machines. We were 4 people who had little in common but worked together. The pub machine had a game based on snooker and if you got a certain break you won a cash prize. One person was a sports fan, I was trusted with current affairs, another was a film and history buff and another was good for geography and popular culture questions. The rule was whatever question popped up it was left to the 'expert'. We managed to have a few pints and a takeaway every night for a few weeks before we were 'rumbled'. I doubt if any of us would have been seen as geniuses on University Challenge though.
I don't feel so thick about UC now if Peter doesn't know the answers anymore!
I have often wondered if anybody actually spends time learning the array of national flags for any other reason than it might be a question on a quiz show. Can there be anything more mind numbing.
I totally agree with Peter on his analysis of University Challenge, Packsman is the least interested in the programme of all those involved! It has become unwatchable due to the totally random and obscure level of questions! Yes it was supposed to be for the better educated among us but it has become so specialized it should be limited to the realm of past midnight viewing on the OU channel! if it still exists!
No, it doesn't. All educational content on the BBC comes packaged with an annoying comedian who tells a crap joke just as someone's about to say something interesting.
Sadly there have been no OU programmes on TV for decades. The Arts ones were often very well worth watching. I remember the 19th Novel and its Legacy had some excellent well-made TV programmes supporting it. Even the theme tune was a great piece of Hindemith. They even got Sir John Gielgud to appear as the Grand Inquisitor in a programme about Dostoevsky. My sort of telly.
Peter's Pics is a fantastic idea, I know the Japanese film Peter was talking about but I can't remember it's title but as with so many 'quality' films that sadly they to like us no longer seem to make, was a superb film but that does not mean it will be as good, i.e. Oldboy. To hear though that Bill Nighy is in Living is a British remake means I will look out for it, but then again Bill sold his soul by appearing Pikachu 😞
Akira Kurosawa’s “Ikiru”, a magnificent film, starred Takashi Shimura (who was the leading samurai in Kurosawa’s “Seven Samurai”).
As a huge Akira Kurosawa fan, I am interested to see Living. Screen play by Kazuo Ishiguro as well.
As for University Challenge. It is sad to to see JP unwell. I am sure he cannot
be happy with the Woke Sloppy formula and script now and be pleased to finish this soon.
He's probably fine with the normal progression of humanity even though he's an old white cvnt like you.
University Challenge mirrors the changes in university teaching over the years. In my time 40 years ago, the "universal man" was still a thing and scientists knew about literature. I think that now, that's even frowned upon as "dilettantism", and scholars must master their subject and be seen to do so. Values change. Metallurgists on the UC panel can expect to have to explain the eutectic point of a given alloy, but not who wrote King Lear. The format has therefore lost a great deal of general interest.
@4:13 - No, no - there are only 4 or 5 people on the panel, so how could you spread out those questions to the extent that you expect?!
Very based Good Wife take from Peter
'Based'? Based on what? Or do you mean 'biased'?
And am I right in thinking Bamber set the questions himself, whereas Paxman just reads ones prepared for him?
I don't think Bamber set his own questions. He was a better question master though.
@@thedativecase9733Actually, his Wikipedia entry says Bamber set the questions for "the initial series". But I'm unsure whether that meant just for the first year, or throughout the whole time he was presenting it.

It’s a bit like the truth and poetry.
The (y-1)mass film for me, just at this moment, as its is a bit of a subjective origin story for me from back in the day, is "XLI QIERMRK SJ PMJI". Funny but, definitely big time trigger warnings for that one. Don't wanna screw that up again. G*d only knows how we got into the Cinema for that one. Merry xmass one and all.
Also the film that illustrated for me, my personal realisation that I'm not gonna be a theoretical physicist is, SEBESTIAN (1968).
Probably not one for Christmas viewing, but I've just watched some of a far left UA-cam discussion (not sure if I'm allowed to refer to other Channel's here) with Owen Jones a Guardian Journalist not on his channel though. It put me in mind of a 1977 UK BBC Television play called "Abigail's Party" by Mike Leigh*. I recall watching it as a teenager, while my parents were out. it seems lots of teenagers watched it. Which is odd, in the year of Punk Rock: It was, as I recall, because all the other channels were on strike at the time (Memory though) According to Wikipedia, it also played at the San Francisco Playhouse in 2013.
The BBC version stared the brilliant Allison Steadman, and Tim Stern.
Reason I refer to it here is cos I got the feeling the far left are beginning to "move like Jagger", so to speak. Meaning I was saving this one up but blew it I think, and so some of my possibilities from this year going forward might be closed down. However, it also means some impossibilities from this year will open up next year. (They got me worried for about 45 mins).
Thank you for the discussion Peter Hitchens and Peter Whittle. Have a great Christmas.
I've done some reflection on what went wrong with my exchange with the far left. I allowed the vices of pride, intellectual vanity, and greed to take me over. I must try and stick to Clint Eastwood's Maxim: "If your are starting to enjoy the returns its time to stop for a while".

I don't like UC because it's actually unfair and annoys my slightly autistic brain! Answering sets of different, random questions does not produce a justified winner. The only way to do this is to ask all the teams exactly the same questions separately from each other, and though this will not necessarily produce the most intelligent or most knowledgeable winner possible, at least it will achieve precisely that within the contraints of time available and all questions asked. (I told you I was autistic - sorry! Lol.)
They ask different questions so as to level up the competition I always assumed, having detected that 'certain' teams always seem to get much easier questions.
@@nickmiller76 Possibly, Nick, though that would certainly be crossing a fairly important line in fairness. I don't think I've noticed much difference overall in the questions set, but rather that I have been able to answer some topics far more easily than others, which will no doubt be the case for all of us.
Spot on about London. Definitely Lost.
I've watched UC for 30 years, but that will stop soon for 2 main reasons 1/. UA-cam now provides 95% of what I watch and 2/. The shocking quality in general knowledge by some of the contestants. In addition, and I don't know if I imagine it, some of the teams seem to be selected strangely, putting 2 non natives in a team is a big disadvantage, as a high percentage of questions are not unnaturally about the UK? I don't know how I feel as some of the youngsters inspire me with their knowledge, but some sadden me as to how they were considered to be intelligent enough to go to university? This is especially so with the ones who don't answer a single question, if they are the cream God help the remainder.
Peter Hitchens the first intellectual to take the jab
Don’t watch Living.
Watch the original, Kurosawa’s “Ikiru”
The great Christopher Hitchens' mediocre brother. In this installment, he disapproves of questions to which he does not know the answers, and is shocked - twice! - by questions about female early-modern mathematicians.
Students are not well read nowadays, they're fed!
Really? Surely twas ever thus?
Sour grapes...
A reason has to be that it is merely a showcase for received and retained wisdom rather than the essential
ownership of perceptive creativity and invention.
I’ve always regarded those ‘intellectuals’ who studied the classics as no better than the nerds who know and pontificate the minutiae of the Tolkien fantasies. It’s not clever and it’s certainly boring.
Peter Hitchens' insistence on speaking with such a low (pitch and volume) voice makes him almost unintelligible. I saw and heard Peter Whittle laugh but after replaying it twice I still don't know what he was laughing at. I give up.
Some of us very much enjoy the difficulty of University Challenge questions. It's supposed to be a challenge!
Whoooooosh.
@@sunnyjim1355 Whoooooosh what?
Absolutely fascinating.
I wonder how many British share Mr Hitchens' irritation that questions from the general knowledge category aren't solely about british history, literature or scientific achievements.
Haha
What the bloody hell is Peter on about. University Challenge is great. It's called "University" Challenge for a reason, it's skewed towards weird academic stuff, it was never meant to be the same old general knowledge quiz. How convenient that the things he thinks should be on it are, presumably, the things he happens to know about. And by the way, since when didn't quizzers prepare for quizzes by swotting up on the relevant fields? Less rah rah rah more sense, please Peter.
Dickens anyone?
Obscure questions is the point. He’s annoyed he’s too thick I think!
Is he a little sad he doesn't know the answers 🤭
Googled the word 'pompous' and this video appeared.

Maybe Peter just needs to hit the encyclopaedias a bit more.
Whooooooosh.
London is a very British city. It contains many of the peoples from the countries Britain conquered.
Reep what you sow, chaps.

I've been watching UC for years. Times change and so do some of the questions that are culture based. Nowt wrong with that.The woke thing is pretty minor. If you have an issue with it, maybe you're the one with the problem. Other than that, UC is not all that different from before. Peter Hitchens is an interesting character. I usually don't agree with him but there's some intellectual heft to him when he's not being an old fogey.
Straight out the gate complaining.
