Back in London
Apr. 20th, 2006 11:34 amWent to a recording of QI yesterday. Not "yesterday evening", as most shows tend to be. Oh no. When I applied for the tickets, the recording was scheduled for 7 o'clock. Found out through ![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
qi_fans (not via an email from the company, or anything) that it had been moved to 5. Luckily both sigmonster and I could rearrange things. The huge studio (800 people?) was full, so clearly lots of others could as well. A very mixed audience- we were behind two vicars in the queue, who were behind a group of goths.
The warm-up man told us why the time had been changed. Alan Davies is an Arsenal fan, and was going to their game v. Villareal in the evening...
Anyway. It was all very funny, the panellists keeping on being amusing even during the pick-ups when there's no chance they'll be aired, which is always nice. My face ached from laughing afterwards. The questions were mostly about danger (this is the first of the "D" series), but of course, lots of digressions. I liked a discussion about legless ducks (they could stick one wing up like a sail, like this...) After Alan had zoomed off to his car and they were redoing the last few of Stephen's links ("I said that wrong again? Oh, I'm crap. Kill me now") Sean Lock had a big "argument" with the empty chair. Which was amusing. It won't be aired till Autumn, hopefully I'll have a functioning video of some kind by then.
