QI is great. That and HIGNFY is worth the license fee. I love it when some words or jokes go straight over Fry's head. Here's the classic with Phil Jupitus and "war drums".
Series 1 Episode 8
[After Phill has confused Stephen by speaking in a Geordie accent]
Phill Jupitus: There’s that great joke about the little soldier who’s with General Custer, and they can hear the… [taps a war drum beat on the desk] …and he says to the little Geordie soldier, “Listen, they’ve got war drums,” and the Geordie soldier goes, “The thieving bastards!”
Stephen Fry: Is it, like, a naval wardroom? Is that what they’re saying, “wardroom”?
[Phill sighs in exasperation and puts his head on the desk]
Stephen Fry: Well, it’s where naval officers gather for their pink gins, it’s called the wardroom.
Phill Jupitus: [to the Pudsey plush on his desk] Oh, Pudsey, make him stop!
Stephen Fry: Well, [Geordie accent] “they’ve got wardrooms, the thieving bastards”? [Normal] What…?
Phill Jupitus: In Newcastle, they say, instead of “our”, they say, “wor”!
Stephen Fry: Well, they simply must go to school, it’s just ridiculous.
I also found a great site for QI quotes too.
"Reality is what it is, not what you want it to be." Frank Zappa. ----------- "The invisible and the non-existent look very much alike." Huang Po.----------- "A drowsy line of wasted time bathes my open mind", - Ride.
i remeber that, it was really good... the book its a good read
iv spent the last few hours working my way through it and im not done with it yet

QI is brilliant. Fry is excellent. Lovely to see other QI fans around. HIGNFY is also excellent.
I agree! QI is great, as is Mock the Week... but I also really like Alan Davies!!
I've had a lot of sobering thoughts in my time.... It was them that started me drinking.
