In Iran "when will I eat your dinner?" mean when are you getting married. Also "Eating someone's dates" means that person is dead. For example "I never thought I would eat his dates". Meaning I never thought he would die bofore me.
I have said this before, but the Canadian phrase "shagging the dog" is incorrect. It is actually (in British parlance) "Dog shagging". Basically it means doing nothing of importance or value. It stems from when dogs get overly excited they will walk around 'humping' the air ... doing nothing of value or importance, but simply going through the motions. It has nothing to do with actually screwing dogs. Hence the phrase "dog f**king" or to use it in a conversation: "What's Bill doing?" "Bill? Oh he's just dog f**king". Not to be confused with "Screwing the pooch" which would translate to "Oh man, he's in BIG trouble". Used in conversation: "What happened to Bill?" "Oh man, he screwed the pooch. His boss caught him dog f**king when he was supposed to be getting the job done."
Bullet proof clothing is as old as bullets and first invented long before the British fought the Zulu’s duke Francesco Rovere of Italy commissioned one to be made in 1538 so they are probably even older than that
12:50 Ooops. "The Man Who Never Was" had nothing to do with D-Day (the Normandy one that is). It was about the invasion of Sicily. Not June 1944, but July 1943.
the sequence with the clip of alan reacting to different things is an odd one, given it only works with a neutral expression and the one they filmed was extremely not-neutral. he just looks slightly puzzled and quizzical about everything he's seeing

The first I heard of how back ups on highways travel back as people slow down, was o these program. Brisbane is more go-ahead. A smash occurred beside me, on the other side.

I met a South African guy in Swaziland who had a construction company. He told me, hire a Zulu as a foreman, don't hire them as a worker. They're good at telling people what to do. Theyr'e shit at doing it. I'm just repeating what somebody told me. I don't know anything..
Well you got creative with this one. Instead of repeating clips like you usually do you used a cilp that's not even from Series K. The one with David Tennant was from Groovy, which doesn't start with K.
@@moomin1632 I could. They are all free on iplayer so I'm watching them there. But that's not really the point. It's not difficult to not repeat clips or use clips from a different series. But this person seems incapable of doing so.
Years later it turns out 60% of series A facts were false? So allowing for time and generalizing a little (but the graph suggests a steady linear climb over time), any of the facts that Stephen pontificates so knowingly about are more likely to be wrong, than right. And he always sounded so sure of himself...
I'm not so bothered about it being from the wrong series (a bit, but not so much) it's when clips are repeated that really annoys me. That was mercifully absent from this selection.

Stephen accusing Alan of not inviting him to his wedding only for him to say that he did but Stephen didn't come is always funny.
Phil's reaction to Santa not being real, and Steven reassuring him, will never not be hilarious no matter how many times I see it.
Totally agree. Gets me everytime.😂
I want a Phil Jupitus hug. 😢
Sorry, but what do you mean when you claim Santa isn't real?

As a Canadian, I've never heard that before. Catherine, speak for yourself.

The Sandi and Trevor bit always makes me laugh so hard
Alan made the ultimate sacrifice so that bones fans could have Gordon Gordon 🤣
Yes, because Stephen could have made a speech at Alan's nuptials and he is the BEST speaker in the (English-speaking)world.

I think he was just mentioning it alongside other schemes.
Maybe it's because I'm from western Canada, but I've never heard "shagging the dog." The version I'm familiar with is "screwing the pooch."
I think she cleaned up F#%king the Dog there. We don't really say "shag" ever, do we? Clever of her to localise it like that, though.
yes she meant "fucking the dog."
watching sandi giving stephen a run for his money is beautiful and definitely shows why she's his successor
A whiskey drip- heaven 🙂

It's QI. Their facts are not exactly factual.
I would not call it extremely not natural but to each their own

That was cute the way Katherine Ryan used that little bit of Canadiana to describe her own comedy career.

I think there are lots of different types of cat litter besides just clay
@@beatriceroserobinson at the time it was clay. And I read about it ages ago, the clay ends up as grey powder.

Many cat litters are made of pine and work awesome. I bet they burn!😂

The Canadian expression meaning an easy and/or overcompensated job is actually "fucking the dog and selling the pups."
I wished they'd showed the soldiers and not just those empty seats.

Well done
"I feel the need, the need for speed". You know, yelling nonsensical bollocks is not the same as being funny.
Alan has also got increasingly more 'shouty' - to the point that I can't watch the later ones with Sandi 😬
he was quick on the mark with the hand joke though
It's not nonsensical, he was thinking how the blowtorch flame is similar to the flame of a jet engine afterburner.
@@Pagliacci_Rex I don't claim to know how or what he was thinking, but it was definitely just quantity of noise over quality of content.
@@BumMcFluff it's a reference to the film Top Gun which has a lot of shots showing the afterburner. Be an adult and accept the explanation that you were given.
