Stephen Fry has the most calming voice. You can imagine 50 screaming kids & Stephen saying, " c'mon children, let's all settle down.." then complete silence.
I just love how happy Stephen is when Trevor starts singing. I mean if you think about it, Stephen is basically a linguistics expert, and has travelled the world, writing books and giving talks all about the history and evolution and extinction of language. Language is his JAM. So to hear one which is that old, which he'd be unlikely to hear unless he went on a VERY long trip - he's in heaven. Sandi, on the other hand, has just decided that there are more seductive languages than French.
Xhosa is a very common language though. It's widely spoken across southern Africa. Over 8 million people speak Xhosa as their first language. It's one of the official languages of South Africa and Zimbabwe.
Many years ago, as a lawyer, I acted for a former WW2Fighter Pilot, (his daughter was a good friend) he was applying for a pension as a disabled serviceman. He told me that while on “Operations” he drank at least a minimum of a bottle of Vodka or Whisky a day, often 2 or more depending on the operation. He described 2 “missions” for which he had been decorated. It turned out, that alcoholism was a recognised war injury for pilots, he got his pension with no problems!
It reminded me of those camelot days when Peter Gabriel would do a Back to Front Tour and whether he wrote the songs they were EVERYthing those extraordinary musicians...... : I am actually making a contentious point in this a hilarious show that presupposes that all is well ... when it's not. Douglas Murray's book the Madness of Crowd presupposes that people only gather together against another group. He cannot understand when huge nos of people congregate for joy. .
@@EvelynBaronwhat the hell are you on about ? when peter gabriel was in camelot ? plus ... you can't just run out a sentence with .................. we havn't a monkeys what yer on aboot |Evylyn ... don't drag Douglas into it either ... hardly his fault ....
@@EvelynBaron Don't worry Evelyn mate, I too sometimes watch old QI whilst smoking pot......Although you may have gone a tad far this time. PS: I believe the language Trev is speaking is called Xhosa 👌😸
I adore David Tennant's natural voice with his Scottish lilt and burr. Just one of the most relaxing sounds in the world...I could put together a soundtrack of David, Billy Connolly and Sean Connery and it would contain the best sounds to lull me to sleep.
He does the narration in the Doctor Who audiobooks in his native accent, with the English accent for when the doctor is talking. Relaxing as hell to listen too.
An Irish mate of mine would drink phenomenal amounts of Guinness. On his 31st Birthday, he drank 31 pints over the course of a day and still walked out - albeit with a pronounced list. Some months later he left the pub and crossed an unlit A road. He was hit by a Mk1 Land-rover doing over 50 mph. The land-rover was an insurance write-off, but he survived with no broken bones - just a ruptured spleen. We visited him in hospital a day or later, and left him a Nintendo game to pass the time. He laughed until he pulled his stitches, and the nurse threw us out. The game? "Crash dummies"!
51:31 she’s actually correct I think. iirc Kangaroos, like the western reds, can halt the development of the zygote for a year or so. I remember it being called diapause or similar. It’s an adaptation to drought and irregular wet periods. And when there are good conditions the zygote kicks back into gear and starts developing to take advantage the extra feed that will grow.
I think it is more of a pez dispenser type thing, when the conditions are good, one pops into place. That's why you should never pick them up by the tail, they might spill their supply of joeys.
Is every single guest not special in their own right?😅 I love this show so much and have learnt a lot from it thanks to some angels tirelessly uploading the episodes on here. 💖
Working in a laser optics lab for safety we have a small shielding block to put in front of the laser emitter. This is to prevent someone being accidently blinded while working on the mounting hardware (which is often because it is horrible hardware) if something happens and the laser is turned on by the monitor & control system. Therefore, on the fine motor mount ('on a lazy laser raiser') we have the block to stop the laser beam ('lies the laser ray eraser'). There is your context!
I learn something every time I watch these videos! Fly agaric mushrooms grow in my yard, and I know to steer clear of them. But I had never heard the story about Siberian reindeer eating them!
That is an amazing thing. Ilearn much from UK shows. I think, as a whole, British TV and performers are allowed to be intelligent and not pander to the lowest common denominator in the country's intelligence.
To mention, going into shock can kill you. That is a fair part of why being shot/stabbed while drunk is less likely to kill you, you are just more resistant to shock.
The USS Kidd is the only US Navy Ship entitled to fly the Jolly Roger Flag. Rear Admiral Isaac C. Kidd, was on board Arizona during the attack on Pearl Harbor, and was the first American flag officer to die in World War II. Royal Navy's submarine service who still allow the flying of the Jolly Roger on vessels returning from a successful mission.
I can't get enough of the Osmonds' brother in the attic, writing all the songs. It doesn't get more surreal. If it was the Rolling Stones, that's just normal ! Needed to be the Osmonds.
How is it possible to have a special guests of QI video without including Corey Taylor of Slipknot? He had to be one of the most unexpected delights of all the series!
We await your highlights show with bated breath. Go on then, make your own, then we'll watch it. Until then, we've got this, from people who know what they're doing.
I remember an enunciation tongue twister from an acting class: “She stood on the balcony, inexplicably mimicking him hiccuping and amicably welcoming him in.”
I'd never heard of Trevor Noah when I originally saw his first appearance on QI. I now know he was already huge in South Africa and known on the live comedy circuit. I can't help thinking this appearance, and especially Sandi's interaction with him, might have had a hand in his international success.
18:50 when i was a kid there was one of those stone balls from the top of a wall post in the middle of the street, a guy was walking past and thought it was me and my mates football, he ran up and blasted it, went flyin over it LOL
I've never took notice of Brian Cox before, but he's so pleasant! Very soft-spoken, obviously knows a lot about physics, I could listen to him talk for hours
19:39 I was in the ER with asthmatic bronchitis once, and a profoundly drunk man was brought in with "a little scratch," which still had the knife sticking out of it. He'd been wood carving, and he was eager to get home and get back to it.
Synes in norwegian is the verb to know in opinion, like English sense, I perceive, reckon...many norse words were adopted into scottish bc protracted trade and families, inter married. I'm Canadian and both western norwegian and northeastern scottish and both sides have both sides right up into modern times. So auld Lang syne to me suggests reflecting on our perception of times gone passed. Remembering the old days. Makes sense yes?
Lang is long obvs. Auld is old, so old long considerations if you want a literal. But long is likely the adverb so it's long considerations, meaning reflecting on the past in its entirety
I was at a scene of a car accident with my companions cousin she suffered a hit and run - she was drunk but this saved her. My companion was also very drunk and she babbled about her cousin being in an accident before walking round the corner. Strange night.
When you're drunk you're more flexible and less tense in an accident situation. I'm so chuffed with my knowledge! Probably because I've seen it before 😂
I remember this happened to some of my friends on graduation night, when they drove over a cliff. The police said that they survived because they were drunk.
42:34 what piece of music is this? And singers? As the answer is hiding behind the curtains in my brain. And id love to hear it in full again many thanks.
One of the more clever sobriety tests I've seen on cop videos is to ask the presumably inebriated person to say the alphabet from F to T, and then ask them to count backwards from 68 to 50. They can usually do the first part correctly, but when they start counting backwards it'll be 68 ... 59 G H. Think about the syllables involved there. First step - from F to T increasing. Second step - counting down to FifTy nine and then if you're not paying attention you start with the alphabet again.
I caught a neighbour in my flat after climbing across our adjoining balconies stuck in my flat because the front door was a security door and security screen. He had my PlayStation under his arm.
@@thepeaksandthetroughs A couple of hours was all we got out of him and yes he was arrested and also evicted. I have a small camera set up in my home but turned the monitoring off because if the sun moved it set an alert on my phone or the curtains and wind. He put my shit down strolled out the door saying I couldn't prove he was in my place. So we had video of him climbing in and helping himself to my stuff. The idiot had my Playstation 2 that I got for free under his arm and hadn't even touched my PS5 as well. And this was when they were in short supply.
Now I wonder if being extremely drunk can help prevent infections. Imagine if the way to deal with Corona would have been to make everyone in the world drunk for an entire month.
Yeah I know it kills bacteria. It's also used to preserve food and used in some medicines and sanitisers. But I always though the level of blood alcohol was way too low to have any effect (since it would kill your own cells otherwise) but the study seems to suggest it actually helps. I now also wonder if drinking alcohol can prevent food poisoning. Especially since it would be more concentrated in the stomach. @@BaldMancTwat
55:55 many years ago while driving in the country, I saw a big cluster of butterflies swarming and flying around something in the road.

Hate to tell Alan Davies but he's wrong about the cannabis being seven times worse than tobacco. I we have legal cannabis and we grow organic in Washington State.

When at school we had a police officer come to give us a talk about the danger of drugs. He tried to tell us the "Lucy" was a reference to LSD. Even after being laughed at by the entire class he gamly carried on.😂 Then a student got up and started wrote on the board. He explained to the cop it was a chemical formula for the synthesis of LSD and then explained that unfortunately the calculated yield was very low. At that point the cop realised he had been beaten and left. (P.S. That student got a scholarship to Cambridge and is now a Professor).
