This is hilarious, Gillfan!  What is this show? I feel the need to watch it regularly.  :)

Its a British show called QI, which stands for Quite Interesting.
They call themselves a game show but really its a sort of stream of thought with a theme.
Its very entertaining, you can watch some here:

It looks like it's right up my alley. Stream of thought is the way to go!  Is that Stephen Fry, not sure of the spelling, I think he was in one of those Oscar Wilde movies? If it is, he really looks different.

Yup that's him, and yes he was, but its 20+ years later. He was also Jeeves the butler to a Wooster played by a then young actor you now know as (dramatic music) Dr House!\

Loved the clip. Thanks for posting. I almost expected to hear that Cushing and Lee went into their beloved Warner Bros cartoon voices.  :D
My music is for Phoenix. Only she can sing it. Anyone else who tries, dies.
