@@The_Bri_Cli Nothing has happened to him - it would just be nice to see more of him I think was the meaning. Now he's on Taskmaster maybe we'll get to see him more often, though!
@@marvinmeeker5765 I think they shoot like double the amount of stories than what is finally shown. Still a shame though that she didn't get a turn broadcasted.
During the episode Sarah mentioned she was 34. Knowing now that it aired in 2010 means this year (2022) she’s 46. What kind of math genius am I? (And yes, I could have googled it but where’s’ the fun in that?)
To the best of my memory, this was the only time that either Ronnie Corbett or Julian Clary appeared on the show, which is a real shame because they were both fantastic. I do recall seeing Clary however pop up on an episode or two of QI.
For those unfamiliar with the 4 candles thing, here’s the original two Ronnies skit about it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gi_6SaqVQSw.html
omg, telly history, look how young and fresh everyone is, even Corbet. now, 2021, everyone looks like they've been through the wringer backwards, twice. Hard times do terrible things to good people, we'll get through, hopefully shed of a lot of problems and a better view for the day. sorry, I wandered there....
Astonishment aside, have you now watched the Four Candles skit? It only leads to more Ronnies, Ronnies all the way down :) (if you were being sarcastic, ignore this remark :P )
@@blackbird5634 That's great :) The Two Ronnies were a memorable part of my childhood, growing up through the 80's they were already established and producing some absolutely classic British comedy. I haven't returned to them recently, beyond occasionally watching the Four Candles sketch, maybe it's time for a torrent or RU-vid journey :)
The lies are lies and the truth is something that actually happened to them. When people are asked to go on the show they're probably asked to give a fact or story about themselves... Some of the stories are taken from old news / interviews as well. I've heard a lot of the stories on other shows, sometimes it's from before this show and sometimes it's from after, but either way it confirms it's true.
yeah and which isn't to say there isn't possibly any grain of truth out of context from any of the "lies" cooked up by the show producers. Sure, plenty are made up whole cloth, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if some of their ideas are inspired by variations of things that once happened to someone they personally know. They just don't have anything to do with any of the performers on that given episode.
@@kevinw712 Something sorta like this has actually happened. In an earlier episode a lie is told about naming 5 pet pigs after news readers and then in an episode a few series later, this same statement instead about 5 pet chickens is given as a true fact by a different contestant. Made me wonder about the chances XD
I found it weird how a BBC show in 1993 was so overtly gay to have a statue of Julian riding a Unicorn as a set piece... has he forgotten that 1993 wasn't like it is now?
