She was the perfect choice after Stephen left. Even Alan knew that, hence why he decided to stay when he'd originally planned not to. I didn't think anyone could take over it, but she definitely did, and well.

I'm not sure which 'walk-out' moment was funnier; this one, or the Episode 'Ologies' where Sandi asks Claudia Winkleman about a boat and she replies 'Does it have anything to do with the wind?' which prompts a walk-out by Alan, Bill Bailey and Phil Jupitus. Both were hilarious!
I feel like this is Sandi's "They say of the Acropolis" moment. Could literally watch it a hundred times and never get tired of it. Also, Holly has a lovely singing voice.
@@anonnymousperson theyyyy saaaay of the arcroppoliiiiis , where the partheon iiiiiiis..... What do they say, what do they say? He's gonna say, he's gonna say....
She's adorable , but if you came from a country with a serious problem I with science denialism and anti-intellectualism, you wouldn't find it nearly so charming. It's only cute when it's ridiculously child-like ... And maybe a feminine Scottish accent helps.
My Dad had a tape of the Rolling Stones that got stuck in his tape player. I wanted to listen to something else, but you can't always get what you want.🥁😂
If Alan ever decided to leave QI, which I hope he doesn’t, then Susan should take his place as permanent guest (btw I don’t want Alan to leave because he is the heart of QI). Just like Alan was the perfect foil for Steven and Sandi, she is the perfect foil for Sandi (and Steven for a brief time). She is extremely intelligent but never fails to make me laugh with her antics. She definitely knows how to push Sandi’s buttons, drive her insane and have her in hysterics lol. Holly is also the best addition to QI since Sandi took over. Her and Susan together as a pair are brilliant.
Wonderful. I thought this was going to be a 15-1 clip. I remember one, when Toksvig asked a question about something to do with the 50's and the contestant said "that's before my time," and as quick as a flash, Toksvig said, "history didn't begin when you were born dear!" Love her to bits! 😉
This was one of my favorite episodes ever. Laughed so much especially when Susan was doing the sound effects noises for the space battle. She is one of my favorite panelists.

@@Elitist20 That last line of the opening narration, then breaking into The Eve of The War still sends shivers down my spine after years of listening to it.

Despite Sandi's parenteral "you should be ashamed of yourselves!" type reaction, you can still hear her laughing (off set) when Susan Calman sits in her chair. I love how Susan found it so delightful & amusing when the audience starting singing along too. You know she's not exaggerating or joking about her childhood sing-alongs in the car!
Because American TV producers have to make programmes that their commercial sponsors will like. BBC producers can make programmes that their viewers will like.
It reminds me of a SciFi scene when they managed to crashland in water and someone asked how deep the ship would be able to handle. And the simple but in hindsight obvious reply was: well, anywhere between 0 and 1 atmosphere, so let's keep it floating.
I hate to sound like a major trekkie, but, "Enterprise" didn't have those badges. That was before the founding of the Federation. We didn't see those insignias until the original series. Which is set in a future timeline 100 years after "Enterprise."
@@Smoking_Joe In the original series of Star Trek from the 60s, the red shirts are usually engineering or security crew. Gold is command, and blue is science or medical. Although red and yellow would swap places later on. That's if you watch The Next Generation, Deep Space 9, or Voyager. In original star trek, the red shirts are known for always dying. If Captain Kirk went down to a planet with a red shirt crew member, that red shirt would most likely not come back alive. So, red shirts are a bit of a joke. If you're a red shirt in star trek, you're probably going to die.
@@RHTeebs You do realise that when normal people refer to "Star Trek Enterprise badges" we are referring to the TV show called Star Trek where William Shatner played the captain of a spaceship called Enterprise?
I think Sandi is brilliant for this programme..one of my favourite programmes...informative and entertaining, and unpredictable...and poor Alan gets set up quite often..that`s what makes it enjoyable.
The whole thing holds up really well. I dug up the version I grew up with here on UA-cam and have to watch it doesn't distract me too much while studying. Catchy as hell.
When I was a senior in high school (1996), I was a followspot operator for a community theatre production of Joseph. Haven’t listened to the soundtrack since then, but this smacked me right in the auditory memory center. 😆 Also remembering now that I took to wearing one glove throughout the performances because my spot was on constantly for the entire show (sans intermission, of course) and one of the handles got overheated.
Loving Susan and Walsh's little duet, along with the audience singing along!! I like how Joe turned to Alan and Sandi as they left and he was like oh we doing it ok coming
That was genius and I noticed that the agnostics left the stage even though the coat is a rainbow 😂😂😂👍I love this taking the mick out of yourself comedy,, more please ❤️
I love Susan Calman she is amazing loved it thank you and I like the Star Trek T-shirt specially the fact anyone in a blue shirt knows they are safe statistically speaking
Imagine that lot crewing the enterprise. "Air lock? How'd you lock the air, then? Press it... see if it turns off the air conditioning on the bridge. Bloody freezing in there."
Alan would be a brilliant/rubbish engineer. "We can't keep up this speed, the engines can't take it!" Sandi: "are you familiar with conservation of momentum?" "Yes, we'll slow down." *Klaxon*
@@goldenpony822 The Klaxon would indicate an incorrect answer or common misconception. Conservation of momentum means that, if there was no external force acting upon you, you would stay at your current velocity. In space, the only force you'd have to worry about is gravity, so as long as you're far away enough from anything with significant mass, you would not slow down. As Alan is saying that they'll slow down, he's incorrect, so there's a klaxon.
@@xxxdumbwordstupidnumberxxx4844 oh dang the name is self explanatory I know the QI klaxon lol but thought there would be friction to slow you down. Edit: now the joke is real fun even after a reread XD
@@goldenpony822 Well, for friction there would only really be two options in a spacecraft; either in the atmosphere of a planet, or hitting/scraping another object in space (including the ground of a planet). If it's the latter case, your momentum really shouldn't be the main concern.
That's Susan Calman & Holly Walsh for anyone saddened that the credits are wrong. That being said, teenage me would have been amazed to see so many funny women on a panel show at the same time, credited or not! Great to see that things have changed a little bit.

My Dad used to play Neil Diamond's "Hot August Night" on every family trip. As much as I liked it, I remember a trip my sister and I sang JANHATDC over the top of it with me doing harmony for many kilometres.
I can absolutely sympathise with the tapes in cars! Ours was a live album from Simon and Garfunkel. Don't get me wrong, it's a great album, it just gets a bit tiring when you're listening to Bridge Over Troubled Water for fifth time on a 7 hour car journey.
I'm never gonna dance again Guilty feet have got no rhythm Though it's easy to pretend I know you're not a fool… That holiday car trip to Denmark is ever ingrained into my brain.
I read "Sandi Walks Off Set!" and unkindly thought, "How do her feet reach all the way down off the dais?" I apologize for that treacherous instant of unguarded reflection. Of course Sandi's feet reach, and she doesn't need Alan to lift her.
As someone who grew up having my own ears poisened with the Joseph soundtrack obviously I was in sync with the audience and wholeheartedly agree with Alan 😂
Probably my favorite clip of QI. Everyone on the panel are in outfits from my favorite tv show, 2 are singing Andrew Lloyd Webber songs with the audience, all we need is Superman and a TARDIS, and I'll be freaking out.
I'm not ashamed to admit that I was part of that impromptu sing-along. That's the wonderful unpredictability of a QI recording.

Love Alan's deadpan "That really was intolerable". Especially as I'd joined in the singing so I know that it really was.
Takes one to know one I guess
have you been there or did you sing at home?
only because it was not him in the limelight..Alan is only for Alan
He was right.
His main objection may have been that he didn't start it and thus the attention was not on him.
It's unscripted gems like this that really make panel shows as good as they are, especially QI.

Hilarious !. I love this show. Hello all from Australia.
this is my favorite episode of QI ever
As someone who grew up having my own ears poisened with the Joseph soundtrack obviously I was in sync with the audience and wholeheartedly agree with Alan 😂
Surely Sandi walks off set at the end of every show.
Sandi is always worth watching on TV in every program she is in but with the added bonus of Susan this was a winner
Probably my favorite clip of QI. Everyone on the panel are in outfits from my favorite tv show, 2 are singing Andrew Lloyd Webber songs with the audience, all we need is Superman and a TARDIS, and I'll be freaking out.
Probably the best QI moment I've ever seen.
When this episode first aired they didn’t include the Technicolor part so it looked like Sandi morphed into Susan instantaneously
Thank god for that. The terror of actual humour!
