I expect most/all of Brydon's stuff is scripted by other people. (Not that he's not funny himself.)

All the questions have to be written, of course.

Good point - 11 Wow! Didn't notice that.

Yes, but there's not that many, and very little research required I would have thought.

Exactly; just think how much editing they must have done to reduce them so much.
That Rob Beckett didn't have a lot to say for himself last night (whoever he is) and did he have a set of those wind-up joke teeth in his gob?
As always a very entertaining episode.
Funny you should mention Rob Beckett, because this week he's been on Mock the Week, on 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown AND on WILTY. Not that I'm complaining, he can be very funny and quick-witted.

But like I said - didn't have much input on WILTY, so don't know if he's funny.
Has funny teeth though - does that count?
Was in St. Petersburg (Leningrad) in 1977 - my God that Winter Palace!! Makes Buck House look like a garden shed, and the Hermitage museum - WOW.
He seems to be fully aware that he has funny teeth
Did he have 'em done 'specially?
I don't think so mate.
Tongue in cheek
Wasn't Graeme Garden's lie that he had pigs named after newsreaders a rip off of Kirsty Young's truth that she had chickens named after newsreaders?
These were both in previous series, by the way.
I used to like him in the Banana Split Show.
