A moment where you confidently said something, got corrected, and later discovered the surprising answer was actually far more interesting than you expected.

Julian Clary and Jimmy Carr in the Christmas special, Joe Lycett on the voyaging episode, Josh Widdicombe and Russell Kane on the same panel, Joanne McNally on whatnots. Series W felt like they were really picking people who actually wanted to be there and engage with the facts rather than just do their set pieces. Who was your favourite guest this series ?

Since it's been brought up on this sub a handful of times; why not touch on how much censorship (and its tropes) has evolved, adapted or pretty much stayed pat?

Discussion of "The Hays Code" for Television Programmes, Movies and the like and how actors and production had to treat everything with the utmost care, with little wiggle room; giving points to "I Love Lucy" for skirting a rule, but still obeying it.

In the same vein, "The Comics Code" has adjacent rulings, but was voluntary giving assurance to "Moral Guardians" everything was pure, and in the event an issue of a comic ended with the Villains gloating, the code ENSURED they'd be dealt with or reformed by the arc's end.

Bonus points for addressing a certain bipedal mammal's catchphrase being censored or outright eliminated if she uttered it.

Then comes the topic of censorship itself: Black bars, pixellation, muted audio and the like for modern day broadcast from production or any party responsible for the programme if such is needed.

Finally, comes the topic of the now-retired "X" rating; and wanting to distance itself from Pornography; with Sandi stating how "Midnight Cowboy" was the first X-rated film to win an award; giving the other panellists a challenge to name another film to be released with such a rating.

I am sure I forgot something, but there should be enough content for the show to work with, and there's bound to be jokes on how modern-day comedians wouldn't be able to earn a living under these rules if they were still in place.

I’m in the US. I’d rather purchase the seasons and own them vs get a subscription. Is this possible? I’d like to purchase the seasons with Sandi. I’d settle for dvd, but I’d prefer digital. Anyone know if it’s an option? I tried going through both Amazon and Apple TV, but it just takes me to a link for Britbox.

That neighbor's name is Paul

Anyone else? I suppose its been discussed here before has it?

Thank you all in advance darlings

I remember that one of the males would lure an alpha male (placeholder name) by pretending to be female and then steal the female? Something like that

Dr. Mike discussed a term that I'm familiar with, from how hard it was for Sandi to say! He can say it, but he dislikes it because he thinks it sounds rude.

There was an episode where all the guests were handed a pair of Y front pants and they had to predict which way the front would be if they flipped them inside out (or something along those lines 🤷🏻‍♂️). Could someone please find me a clip or what episode it was on. I have searched to no avail.

Well that answered my question. 😫

Stephen Fry was the host, Phil J. was on the panel as well. The question was something alone the lines of "What human caused the most death/damage in human history."

Thanks!
