QI XL Full Episode: Queens | With Colin Lane, Sarah Millican & David Mitchell 

I could happily watch David Mitchell read a phone book.

Sandi is absolutely delightful and she was the absolute best choice after Stephen left. Stay positive folks ❤

Sarah's laugh is absolutely everything, I could listen to it all day

David Mitchell is sooo brilliant as Shakespeare in UPSTART CROW

I think Sandy has more fun when Sarah's on the show than any other occasional guest 😆

Alan looks good in a tiara! 😂😂

I have watched various episodes in the past but I've gotten hooked on them again. I am laughing so hard at all the jokes. Some are specifically British and I just don't get them but most are relatable. All of the guests were hysterical!

Sandi should wear a crown and cape at every opportunity.

Me: It''s literally impossible for Sarah Millican to be any more adorbs & delightful. QI: Puts a teeny tiny crown on her head Me: OKAY THEN.

Too late in, but Queen's "Killer Queen" seems a criminally overlooked choice for the ring-in music.

David and Sarah were on fire in this.

David was wonderful in this one! Thanks for uploading 🙏

Man it had been a while since I watched a QI episode, I forgot how fucking good this show is

What's great about this, is that Mitchell & Webb did a sketch about the Royal We...or rather the Royal Ceaser...and the confusion that arises when trying to refer to yourself in the third person singular, the first few times one tries it. Flutes are involved.

Gotta say, they cut a LOT of great material to make this a mere half-hour show! And that's the previous few seasons/episodes available stateside in the first place.

12:25 "What I need now" 😂😂 " 13:30 oh no he's kissing her hand... " Sarah is hilarious 😂😂David is also so funny, I'm laughing so hard😂😂 Alan's tiara beats all😂😂

A crown suits David❤

This episode is exceptionally funny. Funniest one I've seen in ages

i simply cannot get enough of sarah millican. she's absolutely fantastic alan's finger nail bit............................. hahahhah

The guy who rode a horse while wearing a beard made of bees, actually inspired a young popstar to do the same to gain popularity. Justin Beebeard they called him.

I imagine "the great she elephant" is similar to calling someone "the great she owl" or something. Elephants are known for having smart and strong matriarchs, mothers and grandmothers who know the routes and protect the herd. Very cool.

The queens in a deck of cards were inspired by Elizabeth of York, King Henry VII’s wife.

Random Click Sarah Millican !!! I'm Blessed. btw, Thanks Liz, it was a great run, you were super and we loved you like our own gran.

This was a huge treat, thanks so much, from Baja Sur, Mexico 🐠

I can't wait to read, "The Anus of Facts" by David Mitchell.

You do good works, thank you

Why can’t we have this in the states? Might actually encourage people to pick up a book once in a while.

Great fun and educational!

I love Alan Davies! 😂😂😂

Wonderful video @ Zarafa was a lovely giraffe mentioned. Her story is sad at first but a nice ending. Thank you for the video. Live long and prosper. 🖖🐾💕

I think, that when people think that the Queen used "one" (instead of you, or I) often, they were actually thinking of Mrs. Thatcher.

He loved the mother of his children

Interestingly, in German, a royal also reffered to themselves with "wir" though there it originates from the roman empire!

Still waiting for “An*s of facts: the David Mitchell’s autobiography” 😂 Jesus, I love the Brits and their shows (yeah, even if you voted for Brexit, you fools) From a southern European fan 🥰

honey glaze on cooked carrots is quite fine

Alan looks alarming like the late Queen.

"carrot in a box" @ 36:30

At 11:14...Is that the prototype for the Alien queen that Ripley kills??

"No, I have committed no expert study in this field, but... I AM right."

Sarah: "It's that the sort of thing you're after?" David: *dies* 😂😂

"Its going to make the progress of the carrot all together more challenging"

5:07 sounds like things our Reched Trump would refer to himself as.

Why have the CC gone on all the QI shows? How do we get them to return?

33:30 ... so in modern chess... instead of promoting a pawn to a Queen... it should be better to promote it to a Mistress (if the reigning queen is still on the board).🤣

The royal "WE" is a matter for the Privy Council.

Brilliant as usual. That’s a lot of horse. Poor you. Tanya, does your heart go into your mouth when Steve is in danger and he was? A big lad like that can damage him. Your kind patient persistence is a lesson to us all, Steve. I hope that wee lass is okay with him.

6:20 there ARE flavors of honey; within a day's drive in one direction or another, I can obtain sourwood honey, tupelo honey (yes, that's not just a song,) or orange blossom honey from actual blossom harvesting bees. And of course clover honey is ubiquitous.i You can also get flavored honey, per David's KitKat, by putting out dishes of flavored sugar water near your hives. They WILL use it, especially if pollen is hard to come by. It's probably not as good as blossom honey....

How the hell do they come up with the "scores"?

I have no training,yet I am right.

What did Sarah say about the queen shaving "everywhere" when Sandi asked if she were worried? Was it, "I've just grown me winter's coat in"?

Honestly I thought it was caramel!

the oldest thing in the crown jewels would probably be the gold, it pre-dates the earth

2:55 I'm surprised "we" didn't become a homophone jab at the French!

OFFER: Courgettes.... just the right size!

As an American... there were many references that went right past me...

This must have been filmed before the most recent Jackass movie…. Because the most ridiculous use of bees was Johnny Knoxville getting a banana hammock made of bees around his junk 💀 💀

I guess this was made pre QE 2 death.

Edward VII was regarded worldwide as an arbiter of men's fashions. He pioneered the pressing of trouser legs from side to side in preference to the now normal front and back creases,[49] and was thought to have introduced the stand-up turn-down shirt collar, created for him by Charvet.

the tidbit about the qin dynasty had literally everything wrong. he was not called “xi huang di,” he was “qin shi huang” - “huang di”means emperor and js not a name. “qin” was not the first person pronoun, but rather was “zhen,” which qin shu huang did reserve for himself.

Was this recently aired?

Funny how none of the men needed any explanation on the jar

the lack of honey uses needed to be addressed. Here's one that's not tea or toast. Dip still sizzling fried chicken into boiling honey, then dust it with salt, and it's one of the most delicious savory/sweet combinations out there, and if you do it hot like that and let the excess drip off, you get a perfect light glaze and the chicken stays crisp. Douse that in some franks and you're looking good. (be careful, use a fork or better yet tongs, and let it cool for a moment)

Colin Lane must be very good friends with some executive on this show, cause he barely says anything when he's on.

The fate of the 'Queen Bee' might seem quite horrific, but it's worse for worker bees. Part of the reason that the Queen needs to be such a prolific breeder is because she repopulates the hive every year. All the worker bees are killed off prior to Winter, so they won't be a drain on resources. They are killed by having their wings ripped off and then being chucked out of the hive. They starve to death. (It is basically how corporations like to work, except the people at the top aren't producing anything at all. Unfortunately, they don't seem to understand this.)

Why did i know the queensbury rules and english channel guy, incase my profile pic doesnt guve it away im not terribly sporty

Disney interrupts with that annoying add every few minutes . Result makes me never to visit Disney land Paris

In Thailand, people used to grow one long fingernail to take cocaine

It's not true that the lifeboats were not full. They were full and that's an urban myth.

Soooooo, Napoleon brought Brazil " 🦀 crabs". PS: in hippy heaven one long fingernail was for snorting,------ I heard.( Painted red) Sammy Davis Jr was known for having one---- I heard.🥴

Ducks eat termites

Sandi is good, BUT I always feel like she gives away the answers WAY too fast. Stephen Fry always gave the contestants a few chances, Sandi gives the answer immediately after the first attempt of an answer, so there is less time to think about the possible answer as it is too fast, and so I feel I remembered more facts when Stephen Fry was the host. Otherwise it is still a great show.

You know what, i hated sandi's hosting for a while (6 series, to be honest), but I'm coming round to it. It's not so bad. Obviously Stephen is irreplaceable, but Sandi is not bad.

Amazing to see the part about drag queens and how they were banned in the 40s and 80 years later it is happening across the US. Yes, how far we've come in the US, to be banning books and draq shows in 2023.

In the last episode of the Z series, they should have Stephen, Mr. Lloyd, and the lead elf as the contestants, and the episode should be titled "zzzzzz", because it'll be the most boring episode 😂

SARAH! Muh, Qween! MWAH! Julian's lucky he isn't alive and living in Texas, Tennessee, Arizona, Oklahoma, etc. nowdays...

Allan Davies shows how immature he’s willing to be to get laughs.

the more you hear about samuel pepys, the more god awful the man seems

Dis-sected not Di-ssected

Sorry Sandy, but I miss Mr Fry. You’re good ‘n all but Fry owned this.

Too much grossness. It doesn't end with one gross thing, if you read this early.

When did the English become more vulgar than the Australians? I guess the Canadians are now the most refined of the English speaking nations.

This was an exceptionally disgusting episode.

and she wonders why she got half of Stephens pay when taking over.... sad performance.

She is the worst host possible for this show. But they couldn't hire the best because they required a woman for "muh equality"
