QI Series T Pre-Show Banter 

“They only let gay people sit here”, that killed me. This is the first I’ve seen of Sandi’s run and she’s brilliant

Sandi was and is the perfect replacement for Stephen my god. She is absolutely brilliant as the host for QI. Never would have expected it, wholely satisfied.

"They only let gay people sit here" You know Sandi, i hadn't actually connected those dots until you said it

The thought of the size of Sandi's golf clubs just made me smile.

Please get Stephen back on as a guest, it would be amazing to see Sandi and Stephen together again on QI with the roles now reversed!

I would LOVE to see an entire episode uncut, the ENTIRE process. Please.

Alan was so pleased with the idea that Maisie was going to shrink after drinking he couldn’t stop laughing even as he was delivering it 😂

"yeah exactly, move on" 😂😂😂

Please, pleaaaaaaaaaaaaseeeeeeee can we have more of this type of clip? They're great and hilarious!

You know, I'd watch an episode's complete taping session. Might not be wall-to-wall hilarious, but it would be quite interesting.

Hank Green just made a video how he would love to be on QI. That would be my dream collab ever!!

4:33 - Love Alan's reference to Maisie's "magnificent limbs". What a lovely phrase to use to a tall lady.

i love that in all of these clips alan is clearly trying to get rid of his pre-show wiggles and he looks like a giant puppy

As someone who has had pneumonia I can say that it is the absolute pits. Even once you are over the illness itself it can take months before you feel fit again. In my case it took three months between contracting it and feeling more or less okay (although still with low energy levels). Wishing you well Sandi.

Sending Sandi very best wishes for a speedy recovery. Hopefully they can get you safely home before too long. Much love xx

I love the banter just as much as the show....brilliant :o)

Some great line ups coming up. Christmas episode lineup is fantastic!

brilliant mix, would love to see more of these

This is brilliant. Thank you for uploading it

I just love Sandy. She's a gem.

I wish more of these were released! Hilarious!

This is fantastic. Needs to become a compilation ep or multiple eps.

Love this!! Love Sandi... loved Stephen... love this show!

Cannot wait to see all of them again in the XLs. All my faves are back on :D

Love you Sandi! Hope you’re feeling better. xx

Jings crivens, help ma boab. I had no idea Greg was that tall.

That was awesome...

Susan AND Gyles HOORAY!

get well soon Sandi!

Friendly zingers are my favorite humor

Sandi's last two lines were magnificent. And so far, completely true.

I'd love to see Stephen come back as a guest.

First episode of series T aired 11 November. There are four episodes out at the time of writing.

Hahaha. What a good laugh.

Love it sandy

*ROFLMAO!* 🤣 _"Like a very disappointing British rail sandwich."_ {:o:O:}

Get well soon Sandi

@TheQIElves more like this...MORE!!!!

Hooray, she’s no longer silenced by the closing laptop! If this is not a recent development I apologize for my delay in noticing, this is the first time in a while that hasn’t happened.

I love Sandi

Absolutely brilliant 🤣🤣🤣

Lovely =)

Wasn't Sandi on kids tv show number 73 or something similar

Where can I watch QI in New Zealand?

Get well soon from your pneumonia, Sandi.

OMG HANNAH

Sandi is hilarious 😆 ‘they only let gay people sit here’

Where can I find the entire T series on RU-vid. I've been looking for the T series xmas episode and cannot find it.

SANDI LOOK PEOPLE!

Hearing the old hows it going bros is 10

Around 3:30 whats with the mixed audio where you can hear someone having a third party conversation?

Pewds : "Whoa

4:23 What does Alan say? I can't make it out.

5:00 not true! Alan and Stephen swapped places once!

So.... when's the next XL?

What does Alan say at 4:25?

"i look like a lesbian golfer! waitamin, i AM a lesbian golfer.......??"

Guess Fremantle got the one source of watching QI in the United States. Iplayer is only for UK...now what? Britbox, or is THAT also banned in the US?

John Widdicome’s line about international womens day made me splutter. So good natured & the women took it that way.

I'm sorry but Sandy Toksvig is the cutest fucking person in the whole world. I just wanna wrap her up and take her home.

Who needs a warm-up act...?

Slightly disappointing we only get one crumb of jimbo, but the silliness of everything else makes up for it I think

[David Attenborough, whispering] Here we observe _Realis humorista_ of the genus _Britannia_ in the family _Ridiculum_ as they preen in their native habitat. While even experts have difficulty distinguishing them from _Falsus humorista,_ the latter are rarely found in this ecological niche, the stage, and almost always observed holding a pint in a pub. Interestingly, the quickest method to confirm it is a _Realis humorista,_ requires the researcher to use a member of _Homo sapiens_ that speaks American English. First, the researcher shows to the _Homo sapiens_ tester an audio-video recording of a preening _humorista_ until the tester yells, “Stop deleting RU-vid’s automatic and freeeee closed captions!” The researcher then plays a video of the same _humorista_ as it performs social strutting. If the _Homo sapiens_ tester becomes increasingly tense, then it is probably a _Falsus humorista._ (This method doesn't accurately identify _Falsus humorista_ because _Realis humorista_ with the Scotts variant are usually misidentified as _Falsus humorista._ ) If, however, the _Homo sapiens_ tester has fewer complaints about the lack of subtitles, then it is certainly a _Realis humorista._ The prevailing theory is that _Realis humorista_ is able to perform social strutting far better than _Falsus humorista_ by adjusting its enunciation, articulation, and cadence, and the tester is able to understand the vocalizations. -------------- Seriously, either your settings are horribly misconfigured or you are deleting/unpublishing the automatic transcription. I was unable to understand half of this clip even after I rewatched some parts multiple times. I'm not asking for actual transcripts: merely keep the imperfect, Google-generated transcript. Thanks!

OK I think they only let gay people sit here lol cracked me up I would love to be a part of this audience

"I think they only let gay people sit here." Alan did briefly sit in that chair once though. Does that mean he was briefly gay?

I don't know who a lot of those guests are! I'm not criticising in any way, but I don't see TV much, and I'd like to know who ?Maisie, the 'witch', the blind comedian etc are...

Please leave Richard Osmond in peace. We know he is tall. He knows he is tall. The joke wore out decades ago, and he has to deal with it every single day he is in public. It's extraordinary that Richard has remained civil and obliging and not murdered anyone....yet.

It's too bad the powers that be at QI have decided nobody should be able to see episodes of the new series on RU-vid. For a lot of us it's the only way to see it.

And how can people who do not live in the UK watch every full episode????

''like one of those really disappointing British Rail sandwiches''....R.Osman in a nutshell

Who's the hot blond please people ?

Calman's Shirt !!!!! NEED !!! in 4XLT. not oversized, OGRE Sized. 6'3'' 320lbs.

“...they only let gay people sit here” I knew both she & Steven are, but that had never crossed my mind. Usually I have some awareness bc I have friends in the community & it can be nice to mention representation. They'll be amused it was a surprise to me :P

They let us see the pre-show banter, but won’t let us see the actual show.

So is lightning McQueen going to be in this? Is he going to race as he is or is somebody going to be driving him or is he going to be driving a car...?

I want the closing laptop back I can't take disappointing sandy

They say of the QI Panel Desk where the Swivel Chair is... there are no straight hosts.

I SWEAR there's some canned laughter in this,.. that shrill laugh often appearing at the end of a crowd laugh segment. Tell me I'm wrong or prove otherwise,..

Has Sandy ever gone 5 minutes without announcing that she's gay?

Not enough gay jokes.

Less than 7 percent of the population is gay but 40 percent of the discussion is about being gay and lesbian. This wasn't the case with Steven Frye.

Bring back Stephen

Every clip encapsulated why QI has gone to the dogs...

"Would you like me to take more off?" Please, take yourself off the stage.

4:18 I was thinking she was gonna say “I’m gonna split into two?!?”

What does Alan say at 4:26?
