QI Series F
Jun. 13th, 2008 11:54 amMy ex-flatmate-in-law managed to score some tickets to see QI being recorded! Result!
Ex-flatmate knew someone who worked at the London Studio, so we get ushered to the front of the queue. Result × 2!!
Ex-flatmate-in-law couldn't come because she had baby to look after so it was just me and ex-flatmate. Did see them both beforehand though. Met their son. Had a feeling they'd be popping kids out pretty speedily after getting married.
Chatted about sci-fi, and apparently there's some karaoke show he's going to be on. He's a great singer. He'll probably do okay.
There was some useful random factlets before it started to keep us amused. Discovered lots of things about moles. Also discovered that
squirrel_dreams is a turophile.
Andy Himilton, Rob Brydon, uhm... that guy I don't really know and Alan Davies learned lots of things about Flags from the always charming and intellectual Stephen Fry.
The show was kind of slow live. HIGNFY was much quicker paced. It's the nature of QI to ramble though, and I think Stephen Fry is better at keeping order whereas Paul Merton is better at breaking it.
