Sandi T's pulled off one of the hardest succession jobs in TV...and made it her own at the same time. She deserves all the praise she gets...
And wind.
@@fraserallday1338 who would you have chosen
@@fraserallday1338 well comedy is subjective but in my opinion and in the vast amounts of praise compared to complaints I've seen you are thankfully very much in the minority on this one.
Couldn't agree more, and thankfully so. The world and television would be a far inferior place without QI.
I can't think of another replacement on a television show that has been so perfect.
@@fraserallday1338 Wow fascinating. 🙄
"Denmark's the same as Scotland where you're from!" is such a good line and not enough people are talking about it
I love how it's "winding up Sandi", but Alan is the one screaming his head off and about to chuck a lego sculpture at Rod
🤣🤣🤣
I like how Alan was so angry he forgot Rhod is very clearly Welsh. From everything to the spelling of his name to his accent.
Rhod! It's the abbreviation of Rhodri.
@jagobot1487 he didnt forget . He did it on purpose. Like Rhod always saying that all the Scandinavian countries are the same - Alan is saying Scottish and Welsh folk are the same. (Im half Scottish and half Welsh so im both lol)
I can not stand Alan, he is an attention whore, many times he just talks over people that are saying something of interest. I wish they got rid of him, I do not know why he is always on this show.
My favourite part is 5:41:
Alan: "Oslo...Oslo's hilly. They've got a funicular railway and don't deny it"
Sandi: "...Okay?"
Best bit being that there isn't one in Oslo...
Well, there is and it is rather finnicky. But it works.
@@oblivionnokk3531 There’s the city metro which has some nice inclines in places, like up to the Holmenkollen ski jump. But not really a funicular.
@@oblivionnokk3531 Where?
I know we did HAVE one. But Alan is obviously thinking of Bergen and not Oslo :D
@@SebHaarfagre Well most of Norway is hilly. In Oslo you have Nordmarka, østmarka, vestmarka, ekebergsletta and more, just look at Oslo, there are plenty of mountains of hills and mountains around it, the whole ring 3 is generally higher elevated than the city so you look down at the city as you drive around it. Ergo Hilly.
Alan’s “Lisbon is quite hilly” is some of the finest anti-jokery ever put to tv
Anti-joke? Eh?
@@butterflymoon6368 i think its a very slim reference to the rain in spain falling mainly on the plain.
@@ewetoo And on the train. On the funicular railway.
@@ewetoo it’s a joke about Lisbon, how is it related to Spain?
@@easybrains Because it's not Spain, where the plains are.
4:00
Obviously, the guy counting the hills was standing on one of them.
As I recall, the Romans actually undertook a massive public works to actually level the ground and completely removed one of the hills (what name it was, I can't recall)... They needed to put in a parking lot and a Starbucks.
@@nobodyuknow2490 that makes sense
@@nobodyuknow2490 That's completely ridiculous.
It was a Caffè Nero.
Haha I said the same thing
🤣🤣🤣👏👏
Sandi: "Ok. Let's stop doing places that are hilly". Alan: "Dublin's not very hilly."
Kowloon is another one. Kowloon is a corruption of GauLong which means nine dragons. There are eight hills each one representing a dragon - the ninth (and hence the name) comes from the Emperor, who is also a dragon in mythology, made up the extra one
@James Chris yes part of the New Territories of Hong Kong.
Dublins sorta hilly...more slanty
@@cherylyomoma3101 I've found it to be wobbly. Though that was after visiting some pubs.
@@michaellejeune7715 Or coming out of some lanes
I love that Rhod can get the same reaction from Alan Davies, on the subject of Danish winters, that he can get from David Mitchell, on the subject of broken escalators.
Yes exactly! 🎯 I noticed this too then saw your comment. Ahaha Rhod is a madman
I like to compare Sandi to a student who has become a teacher and has realised how hard it really is...
In a way, she is, seeing as she used to occasionally be a guest on QI :P
TheBlackDemon1996 this is genius!
@@HesmiyuMC...That's what I meant...
That and she was kicked out of 2 schools for insubordination xD
Hard? Ive i thing youve got the roles reversed. Asking questions is the easy job, students are the real heroes having to answer them.
"we've got wine over here"
"You've been whining for two hours!"
Absolutely flawless
TAP7a she’s such a mom lmao
Bill! Shut the fuck up!
I need that as a ringtone
"how unusual, a boy who came before I was ready."
I am dead. We are all dead.
That entire section has me in hysterics...!😆
God is dead, and we killed him
I mean. She has a wife... not to kill the joke
@@lewissmith5759 She also has a son that she IDd on the show.
All deceased 🤣
2:00 if only David Mitchell had been there - he would have had several aneurysms. When you push Alan to behave like David you've really got a talent.
Mitchell would probably try to bludgeon him with his viking helmet.
If Fry was the eloquent headmaster, then Toksvig is the exasperated mother.
Very different, but similarly entertaining.
Kinda like Will Smith and Robin Williams, different styles but equally enjoyable
@@daetoris4473 No, in so many ways no.
Care to elaborate? To which are you disagreeing? Williams/Smith or Fry/Toskvig?
Toksvig is better than fry for me!
@@daetoris4473 Maybe you can compare their commercial success, but I don't see any more similarities. Robin Williams was a far better actor and a better comedian.
is it just me or is the "how fast can this boat go?" become the sandy toksvig equivalent of "they say of where the parthenon is"
@nicole nagy Say of the acropolis where the Parthenon is!
They say of the acropolis where the Parthenon is!
They say of the acropolis where the Parthenon iiiiisss!
They say of the acropolis where the Parthenon is!
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT

He's going to say!
He's going to say!
He's going to say!
He's going to say!
He's going to saaayyy!
@nicole nagy Whatever!
Hahahaha it totally is hahahahahahaha
The chances of anything coming from Mars...
Any episode with Bill Bailey teamed up with Alan is an absolute laughing treat!
What exactly do you mean when you say 'team up'?
Add Ross Noble and a host doesn't stand a chance 😂
@@KiwiTigress don't see enough of Ross Noble these days
@@KiwiTigress Tossing ewoks into a lake of fart. While eating prawn rings.
Yes
They say of the Acropolis where the Parthenon is...
That it has something to do with the wind.
As funny as this video is, it’s still not as funny as They say of the Acropolis...
I came here just to make a comment about the Acropolis
(making W sign with fingers) Whatever!
And it only gets a few hours daylight in winter!
@@waltertomashefsky2682 But that's because the Acopolis-scene.... HAD NO STRAIGHT LINES!
Sandi was the only possible candidate to replace Stephen. She is great!
It makes me want Fry as a panelists on the show
what about allen
Exactly. I had high hopes, when she was announced as the new host, but she's managed to somehow be even better than I had expected. She's just glorious.
She basically is a female Stephen Fry.
@@Lortagreb allen? WTF
Claudia's laugh when the guys stand up is pure reaction joy.
Absolutely love Claudia in QI.
Sandi filling in Fry's boots is like Joaqin Phoenix replacing Heath Ledger as the Joker. Everyone thought it was impossible to live up to the expectations, but they did a great job.
Sandi, Alan and Bill should absolutely do a show about two old men in a home who wind up their caretaker.
Johnny Vegas is the barman who lives nearby
Wouldn’t it be fabulous! 🤣😂🤣
I'd definitely watch that!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And Claudia lives next-door and listens to Sandi's rants 🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣
I've not watched this show for a couple of years (am in the Netherlands), and had no idea Steven Fry had left.
But holy shit they seem to have found the perfect replacement in Sandi, i always loved her as a guest in British panelshows and she looks like a brilliant host.
When Stephen announced that he was leaving QI I thought that nobody would be anywhere near as good as him and this show would turn to shit. How wrong was I? Sandi Toksvig is the perfect host. Nobody can be better than Stephen but she is most definitely equally as good.
@@matthewiles5714 Different but an equal joy.
In The Netherlands you can watch the BBC
She is Brilliant. I have watched this show 3 times live and she is so funny sweet and clever.
She is great at this, I understand why Stephen commanded a higher price but wish it weren't so...
But more importantly I think Stephen needs to appear as a guest.
the thing i love most about sandi is her interactions with alan. obviously it was funny with steven but these two are such a team sometimes and that's just very sweet
Sandi replacing Stephen is the most perfect casting move in the history of all video entertainment. I think Stephen should come on as a guest, that'd be brilliant.
I think you're onto something there.
*Stephen
@@triv1 fixed, tnx
Stopped watching QI because of her…
@@charlesharper2357 oh well 🤷♂️
i love the synergy between bill and alan, they just compliment each other's sense of comedy so well
*complement
They are best mates in 'real life'.
Being in the QI audience is on my bucket list, it looks like it would be bloody hilarious!
It is!
You should also check out the QI Elves when they tour. If you didn't know, they have a weekly podcast called No Such Thing As A Fish, and they've recently finished the UK leg of their tour, with the European leg soon to start. They record a live podacst in the second half of the show and they first half is more akin to stand-up, but playing to their individual strengths (I've still got the Baby Shark song stuck in my head thanks to James Harkin's version of it!)
It really is, I was in the audience a few weeks ago for a recording of the Q series. They do loads of audience bits beforehand, and of course, there are about 2 hours of filming so you see a lot more than the TV episode shows. I was in stitches for the whole 2 hours, bloody brilliant time.
I have been in the audience 3 times and it's brilliant
It is fun. But be prepared to queue up for at least two hours to be let in, and there's no guarantee of getting in so if you arrive less than two hours before doors open you'll be at the end of a very long line and might not get in. But it if free. Each show takes at least two hours to record because they shoot a lot of stuff that hey then edit down, and at the end they usually retake a few odd lines where the sound was bad or whatever. And by the time it is broadcast it is months later and so you've forgotten almost all the stuff they said. Another good show to go to a recording is the radio show The Unbelievable Truth, where each panelist has to give a lecture on a subject that is completely made up apart from five true facts, and the other guests have to spot them. Listen to czcams.com/video/g3FXAs15qAU/video.html
The "hilly" stuff was like watching Monty Python
Call me.. Hilly
@Shawn Spence Except Florida. Not very hilly.
@@tvdan1043 I can't decide if you've done that on purpose or not. I've decided to say you have, and add the apocryphal but maybe true note that the highest point in Florida is a landfill.
Yes
i want a compilation of sandi exhaustedly calling people darling
QI, where you can make a sarcastic comment one year and two years later recieve the petty revenge
See also: Josh Widdecombe and the Hairy Hand.
Stephen was more cheeky but Sandi is more sassy, I love both equally for their own uniqueness and intelligence
That comeback from Rhod at the end was inspired.
I don't get it.
@@kayleeblack4303 He was referring to the incontrovertible, provable scientific fact that a single night in denmark lasts two years.
@@bookbeard9792 followed by 1.5hrs of daylight
@PjotrSpot
Pjoooteeeeeeer!
We meet again!
Widdekuu91 I'm being stalked! 😂 Next thing you'll start popping up on ManyATrueNerd's videos and I'll be safe nowhere!
Sandi was a refreshing change to panel interactions. And in effect it was just a simple switch- Stephen was easy to bully and turns in a gentlemanly puppy, but Sandi bites back
I personally find that less funny, though. There needs to be contrast for entertainment. Besides, there were times when Stephen was quite good at getting to the panel. He just had more balance.
I think it’s all her improv training. She was a master at it on Whose Line Is it Anyway.
And you could get round him by flirting, she isn't so easy
@@opheliaismyname9180 unless you are Trevor Noah....that shit worked a treat on both her and Stephen and he wasn't even trying 😂😂
I loved when he was a puppy. Those were all my favorite parts. Everyone went in on him even more. It was adorable.
The whole "put your wine away and shut the f**k up" is probably my favourite scene in all of QI
If we go back a few years ago and you asked me "who could replace Stephen Fry on QI?" I'd probably say nobody, then Sandi came along and proved a lot of us wrong
She's bascally like the female version of Stephen Fry.
Gay ✅
Funny ✅
Upper Class ✅
Hosts QI ✅
@@Postghost maybe ,you're onto something
She's doing quite well on the show. However, to paraphrase Thomas Jefferson, she succeeds Fry; no one could replace him.
I love Sandi so much. She honestly reminds me of my mum’s friends in the way she acts. It’s bloody hilarious. Filling Stephen Fry’s shoes is hard but she’s done an absolutely brilliant job and she’s made the show even better in my opinion
Claudia’s reaction to the first “Put your wine away!” Is my favorite thing.
Sandi does have a great expression of annoyed resignation.
My suggestion to "What does Denmark lead the World in" would've been "Danes." I was half right.
Well, when you want to export something in bulk, exporting just its essence can _really_ save on shipping costs. Just like orange juice from concentrate.
HALF RIGHT! Fuck me that's funny
I would've said beer
technically half-Danes, since the dad is Danish
@JONATHAN SUTCLIFFE i just did a quick Google search, Denmark is 3rd place in the WORLD for tall ppl, i dunno what you base that off but i think you misread tall as short
When they're on form, QI is simply the funniest comedy show that's ever been on TV
That "Put your wine away" bit took me out
They just look like they're having such a good time! I love seeing people just letting loose and having a laugh!
I had doubts about Sandi, but she has never disappointed me 😍
Sandi was like David Mitchell. She was a smart person who grew up a little out of touch with normal life due to her education and experience. If you watch her early appearances she was very strangely dressed, and a little repressed. Not experienced with such shows, being in front of people, but very smart and educated. As time passed, just like David, she really blossomed on these shows with being in front of people and her personality opened up into a very likable person. Grew into a well liked host and guest just like David. Funny, smart, and now finally, great with people.
'oh how unusual, a boy who came before I was ready' 🔥😂😂😂😂 preaching to the choir sister 😂😂😂
What would Sandi know about men "coming"? She's gay.
@@ilovemydog6847 well that depends on when she came out as gay and if she'd had sex with a guy before that. And besides, it really fucking funny for those of us who do have sex with men😛
+
ekstadropsen
So what you are saying is that women take too long to get ready?
@@VestigialHead no, boys have a tendency to come before we get there too😉
@@ekstadropsen Hehe yeah we often do. Damn hair triggers. Tell your guys to self finish before hand and it lasts longer.
Claudia winkleman, bill Bailey and Phil jupitus (and Alan and Sandi of course) may actually be the perfect episode of qi
Don't speak for everyone.
Perfect QI episode would have Winkleman in a carpark - on the Isle of Skye, in an area that is under water, 12 hours a day.
“Do you think this is sharp enough to kill somebody?”
"If you have enough intention behind it."
It's like being in school. Put your wine away.
Franca Perotti .....and shut the f0ck up....
@@msmithmitchell1604 hahahahahaha
Yes Rhod, QI has a very long memory. You can even lose points for something you said in a previous series!
but you can also earn them back, as Dara O'braian found out
"It's just a comedy show but I'm not letting that fecker get away with that!"
They waited 11 years to get Jeremy Clarkson, the elves are patient.
RIXRADvidz * Ó Briain
Just ask Dara.
We all knew the Rhod clip would be here.
they should have had rhod and lee mack on at the same time and just the two of them keep conversing, progressively get their facts more and more wrong.
And they'd bloody send everyone nuts. Throw in David Mitchell and Joe on the other side...mayhem ensues
The episode of Would I Lie to You with Rhod telling his story about paying for Tapas with a Nissan micra, you have Lee Mack and David Mitchell there too - it's TV gold.
Yes
YES
CEILING!
It's not often I wheeze with laughter and have trouble breathing from something on CZcams, but Sandy versus Bill gets me everytime...
Sandi should definitely be paid the same as Fry, for she is a true rarity. You couldn't get anyone more perfect for QI. Fry and Sandi were carved from the same tree.
Sandi is constantly asking herself if she gets paid enough for this babysitting job
I think she wondered that for the first few seasons she did but now it looks like she's adopted them all and there's no way out now
Bill Bailey and Alan Davis together are brilliant. They just egg each other on and sandi can't handle it!🤣🤣
OMG the revenge against Rhod was priceless!!! :) Love you Sandy! Truly a fitting replacement toe to toe with Stephen. I will not suggest one better than the other as I love you both and will not dishonor the position of QI Jedi as you are both, IMHO, equally deserving of the title. HUZZAH!
The whole “hilly” bit absolutely killed me
"probably the next day for you!" Rhod being the best at having the last word in the argument haha
LOL! The best (worst?) possible combination for winding up either Sandi or Stephen is Alan Davies and Bill Bailey. Those two together are comedy gold the way they play off each other.
This episode about the hills and the episode about the wind had me laughing so much it hurt and watching again has me in tears I can't catch my breath. Just magic.
I would say Rhod was winding up Alan more than he was Sandi.
That’s because Rhod was muscling in on his turf.
It kind of reminded me of when Rhod insisted that Roosters only crow at dawn.
Sandi didn't "get annoyed" until Alan did.
Nothing compared to the way he winds up David Mitchell on "Would I Lie To You".
You know you're out of line when Alan is the one telling you off.
Going from Stephen to Sandi is like watching the Doctor regenerate.
I think the wind incident with Sandi is on the same line as the Parthenon incident with Stephen. Both radiate the same energy
my cousins came home from edinburg when we asked how it was they replied "its uphill. every way you go, always uphill. never down."
Sounds s lot like Gothenburg.
I thought no one besides Stephen would be able to coral that herd of nonsense that is the QI panel. Oh, how wrong I was!
nothing like a mom to lasso rowdy not-acting-their-agesters
@@CorvusCorone68 what?
@@heatherheather7817 she's a mom, she knows how to control kids
She was a great choice
That boat scene is Sandi's Parthenon moment :)
i absolutely love it when Bill says: Ehh Bill, put your Wine away and Shut the fuck up! - i roared with laughter for ages hahaha
I do love it when the panel goes completely out of control 😂
Ah, Bill Bailey. A true treasure.
Sandi was the only one who could replace Stephen, and to be honest, I like her better in some ways. She’s always on my dream dinner party guest list!
When Stephen left QI I thought how could anybody possibly follow that, but Sandi is absolutely chuffin' brilliant.
Dubuque, Iowa is hilly. It has a funicular railroad. It was built by a business man in the 1890s whose house was on a Mississippi river bluff. It was built to reduce travel time as he liked to take a nap after lunch.
I've watched this compilation about 5 times now. Never gets old.
At 8:25 I laughed so hard. '' ere Bailey put you're wine away, and shut the f**k up!. 😂
Oh, I do love QI. I loved it with Stephen as host and rarely missed an episode and Sandi managed to step right in and take it up seamlessly. This compilation was just hilarious.
Such absolute lads when they all got up and left. No signals, they just bailed in solidarity. The camaraderie is just amazing and hilarious. That black-haired lady's laughter just elevated it even further.
I hoped Alan and Bill got points everythime they correctly named a place that was hilly!
like Vancouver even though it's not a capital
Dunno, it had to be quite interesting, after all. If they said that Amsterdam was hilly and it turned out to be corrected, that'd probably be quite interesting!
I just thought the Vancouver bit was interesting as that is in my corner of the world :)
@@arhawkes Which is correct. It should've been worth half a point.
@@WhiteCamry But it's not a capital, shame though
Bill Bailey: "Oh I'm ready, I'm ready baby! Say the words, lady!"
Sandi: "Bill! Shut the fuck up!"
Finally, somebody said it!
Thank goodness I have found QI.
Funniest damn thing ever!!
My husband works in a large hospital. I play one of these segments for him every night when he gets home from work. Never fails to make him laugh.
Thanks to all!!
I never heard of the show before and I just came across this video scrolling CZcams at 12:38 AM July 6, 2021. Thank you thank you thank you. 🤣 I laughed so hard I have tears in my eyes. I laughed out loud, in my apartment alone. I can’t think of when I laughed that hard for that long…. 🤔before my husband passed away six years ago.
I really needed that laughter, and the endorphins.
Thank you
thank you
thank you. 💟
This is the second best QI discovery ive ever heard of
I have found since Sandi has taken over as host, the panel gets up to more silly things and laughs more amongst themselves. Might not be the case, but that's what it feels like.
Sandi is basically like that one nice-but-easily-irritable teachers you have, who nobody expects to be cool, but is.
Basically my A - Level Cemeg teacher.
Mrs Beard, RE, Collenswood, Stevenage, 1970's.
I know. She is like my high school English teacher.
I've watched this over and over because I absolutely adore Sandi!!!
I love it 🥰 how Alan gets as annoyed at Rod Gilbert as you want Sandy to get at Rod saying that Denmark 🇩🇰 has almost no daylight .
Sandi has made this her own. Never thought anyone could replace Mr Fry, but I have been wonderfully surprised!
There is nothing like QI! The best comedy show on tv.
Sandi is the teacher dealing with a class of seniors that don't want to learn the topic
I just about wet myself!!
Of all the British panel shows, QI is the best and the funniest! Watching this is just a purely joyous experience!
I crack every time at "bill, shut the fuck up" 🤣🤣
Probably the best, second only to Stephen I believe. Smart, witty and always ready with an answer
Hills banter had me in tears laughing! Amazing!
Rhod's comeback at the end... PRICELESS.
I bet Stephen would love to come back as a guest and be on the winding up team for a change.
pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease, invite him.
I've often thought this. Or even have him back for a day as a guest host and Sandi can be on a team to commemorate the ol' days.
And when he first sounds his buzzer, the klaxons should go off and he should lose 100 points lol
@@Karma-qt4ji His buzzer should just be the klaxon!
@@tvdan1043 I think they did that for Alan one time. When he pressed it at the start of the episode it did the klaxon sound and the screens started flashing a huge "NO".
Given that Greenland is technically part of Denmark...it is true that they have very short days in winter in Denmark
Watched this for a second time when I clicked on it and didn't realise I'd already seen it. Didn't stop me watching it again and bursting out laughing multiple times!
Sandi filled in the void Stephen left impeccably. Fantastic host!
FWIW, on December 22, 2019 sunrise and sunset at the northernmost tip of Denmark were at 8:59:37 AM and 3:32:15 PM, resulting in just a hair over 6 hours and 32.5 minutes of daylight.
I love how Rhod's "dark all the time" joke winds up Allan way more than it does Sandi.
Sandi was always the only possible successor to Stephen IMO, she’s ferociously intelligent and has the personality and wit to carry it off.
Even when she's angry, Sandi is the greatest.
Bill is a clever man so I imagine he knows how to get under her skin easily lol.
I adore Sandi, and she's absolutely marvelous as a host, but I *do* rather chuckle when she gets her temper up and I'm sorry about that
Manatee Man it's really funny, Stephen just usually collapsed in a "please stop" way. Sandi just gets angry.
No, don't be sorry about it. Mwahahaha.
I don't think she's really angry lol
I once attended a live "I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue" show at Manchester Apollo...must have been around 6 or 7 years ago. Jack Dee was supposed to host, but wasn't able to, so Sandy Toksvig did it. The show was great (as ever) but the best part of it, was watching Sandi having the time of her life! She was laughing her head off most of the show and it was a real joy to see. I love Sandi Toksvig.
I'd love to see a CZcams video of the best QI anecdotes:
* Ross Noble's narcoleptic horse;
* Sandi Toksvig's Grandad's "Party Eye";
* Victoria Coren-Mitchell's experience in Las Vegas;
* Bill Bailey's guitar at Schipol Airport.
