[on a question about Pokémon]
Ian Hislop : This is the probably worst and worst-drawn film and craze in history, of badly-conceived little monsters that fight each other, and children trade cards and have a fantastic knowledge of a hundred and fifty monsters. They can't five countries and their capital cities, but just about every child in the country can tell you that Charmeleon evolves into Charmander and then turns into Machop and then kills someone or other, it's absolute garbage.
[flippantly]
Ian Hislop : I've got an idea for these medieval history cards that I think are going to be a big hit in the playground.
Angus Deayton : You're pretty angry about this, aren't you?
Ian Hislop : I'm very, very bored. I've seen the Pokémon movie, which is probably the worst movie ever made on any subject ever.
Paul Merton : You haven't seen "Kevin & Perry Go Large", then?

Ian Hislop : It'll be paid for out of efficiency cuts. Which means sacking people, usually. The idea that the NHS wasn't 7 days is a bit of a scandal, anyway. One of the reasons it's not is because GPs were given this amazing contract where they don't have to work after hours any more. And all that was outsourced to people who said they'd do it cheaper, and like most outsourcing you do it cheaper because you don't do it very well!

Trevor MacDonald : A whistling woman and a crowing hen...?
Paul Merton : A whistling woman and a crowing hen may not look the same when the rain comes in. It's a weather thing. If a cow lies down it soon will snow, if a squirrel jumps, ho-di-ho.
Marcus Brigstocke : I live by that proverb.
Paul Merton : You poor devil.
Marcus Brigstocke : It's confusing, but, you know...

Trevor MacDonald : A whistling woman and a crowing hen...?
Ian Hislop : Change their name from Griselda to Ben?
Trevor MacDonald : Very good, but not the right answer. A whistling woman and a crowing hen are neither fit for God nor Men!

Gyles Brandreth : I fear nobody knows which way it's going to go, nobody knows which way it should go, all we know is that it will mean THE END OF THE WORLD!
Paul Merton : We're inviting Armageddon, then?
Gyles Brandreth : If we vote to Exit, apparently, everything, everything will collapse. Already Barbara Windsor on EastEnders has committed suicide in anticipation of Brexit.

Frankie Boyle : Ian and Julia, your four are: Pot Black Snooker, The Biami Tribe, The Natural Environment Research Council's Polar Research Vessel, and the Fossilised Egg of an Elephant Bird.
Julia Hartley-Brewer : Well we know about the Polar Vessel because people voted to call it "Boatey McBoatface" in an online poll or "Boring McBoring Face" but the Government decided that was wrong so they're going to call it "The Sir David Attenborough". But that, rather wonderfully, prompted a petition for Sir David Attenborough to change his name to "Sir David McDavidface".
Ian Hislop : This is about changing your name? It's not called "Pot Black" anymore?
Paul Merton : Every colour is equal!
Adil Ray : Is there a link to Sir David Attenborough?
Paul Merton : It's because David Attenborough was the controller of BBC 2 back when Pot Black was commissioned in 1969. Because it was a program made for colour TV

Julia Hartley-Brewer : Boatey McBoatface!

Will Self : That is a Deity! Actually, that is a deity of the Aturi pygmies who are sworn to kill everybody who works for the BBC.
Clive Anderson : So Pudsey may well be offending someone, but this...
Paul Merton : Yes, it's the teacher, who, the bear was named "Mohamed" after one of the kids in the class, and she's just been found guilty and 15 days in prison, then she'll be deported.
Chris Addison : British Rail never made this fuss when that bloke named that bear Paddington
Paul Merton : Yes, the mind boggles, never made a fuss then.
Clive Anderson : No.
Chris Addison : Just stuck him by some suitcases and gave him a marmalade sandwich.
Will Self : Well, you say that, but he'd been hanging round the station for ages with a label round his neck saying "Please introduce this bear to a life of Prostitution and Drug-addiction".
Clive Anderson : Unfortunately, he never bumped into you! So, you know. Do you think her mistake was allowing the pupils in the class to take a vote?
Ian Hislop : She didn't make any mistakes!
Will Self : Yeah.
Clive Anderson : No.
Ian Hislop : She asked the children "What would you like to call the bear?", and they all said "Muhammed", and the boy said "Because my name's Muhammed."And she was surrounded by lunatics. Who then said "Death to the Primary School Teacher! Behead middle-aged women who'd like to do children a favour now!" And then taken to Court "This is a serious offence!", senior Muslim clerics in Sudan saying "Oh yes, this is on a par with Salman Rushdie!" "Oh yes, of course it is! Let's lash her!"
Chris Addison : Senior Sudanese clerics were saying that this is part of a Western Plot against Islam, which is a rubbish plot.
Paul Merton : To be fair, it has been uncovered in the early stages!
Chris Addison : "We start with the bears, we move on to the giraffes, and from there Chaos, my friends!"
Paul Merton : "The Animal Kingdom is ours!"
Ian Hislop : Anyway, they're moderate in the Sudan, at least she wasn't in Saudi!
Chris Addison : In Saudi Arabia, they'd chop the bear's paw off! The stuffing comes out, and it's a nightmare.
Will Self : Then it could be the mascot for the Saudi Children in Need Appeal!
Clive Anderson : British Teacher Gillian Gibbons was in Prison for 15 days after her class named a teddy bear Muhammed. Sudan's top clerics are demanding that the full force of the law be used over this stuffed bear incident. Of course, the diplomatic situation is at a delicate stage, so we have to be careful what we say about these vindictive, ranting nutters. One moderate Cleric suggested that the bear be renamed Winnie the Pooh, but when it emerged that Winnie the Pooh has a friend called Piglet, he was promptly stoned to death. Many people in Sudan are saying that the authorities over-reacted and the Sudanese Embassy in London called it "A storm in a teacup". WELL HOW DARE THEY INSULT THE VESSEL OF OUR NATIONAL BEVERAGE! MAY A THOUSAND SCONES RAIN DOWN ON THEIR HEADS!

One of the reasons it's not is because GPs were given this amazing contract where they don't have to work after hours any more. And all that was outsourced to people who said they'd do it cheaper, and like most outsourcing you do it cheaper because you don't do it very well!

Clive Anderson : So Pudsey may well be offending someone, but this...
Paul Merton : Yes, it's the teacher, who, the bear was named "Mohamed" after one of the kids in the class, and she's just been found guilty and 15 days in prison, then she'll be deported.

Paul Merton : Yes, the mind boggles, never made a fuss then.
Clive Anderson : No.

Ian Hislop : She didn't make any mistakes!
Will Self : Yeah.
Clive Anderson : No.
Ian Hislop : She asked the children "What would you like to call the bear?", and they all said "Muhammed", and the boy said "Because my name's Muhammed."And she was surrounded by lunatics.

And then taken to Court "This is a serious offence!", senior Muslim clerics in Sudan saying "Oh yes, this is on a par with Salman Rushdie!" "Oh yes, of course it is! Let's lash her!"
Chris Addison : Senior Sudanese clerics were saying that this is part of a Western Plot against Islam, which is a rubbish plot.
Paul Merton : To be fair, it has been uncovered in the early stages!
Chris Addison : "We start with the bears, we move on to the giraffes, and from there Chaos, my friends!"
Paul Merton : "The Animal Kingdom is ours!"
Ian Hislop : Anyway, they're moderate in the Sudan, at least she wasn't in Saudi!
Chris Addison : In Saudi Arabia, they'd chop the bear's paw off! The stuffing comes out, and it's a nightmare.

Clive Anderson : British Teacher Gillian Gibbons was in Prison for 15 days after her class named a teddy bear Muhammed. Sudan's top clerics are demanding that the full force of the law be used over this stuffed bear incident. Of course, the diplomatic situation is at a delicate stage, so we have to be careful what we say about these vindictive, ranting nutters. One moderate Cleric suggested that the bear be renamed Winnie the Pooh, but when it emerged that Winnie the Pooh has a friend called Piglet, he was promptly stoned to death. Many people in Sudan are saying that the authorities over-reacted and the Sudanese Embassy in London called it "A storm in a teacup". WELL HOW DARE THEY INSULT THE VESSEL OF OUR NATIONAL BEVERAGE!

Paul Merton : Oh! This is the teddy bear.
Clive Anderson : The teddy bear, you're straight to it. Yes.
Paul Merton : Yes, I don't know who Pudsey is, because the Children in Need bear is called "Pudsey", so I hope that's not...
Will Self : That is a Deity! Actually, that is a deity of the Aturi pygmies who are sworn to kill everybody who works for the BBC.
Clive Anderson : So Pudsey may well be offending someone, but this...
Paul Merton : Yes, it's the teacher, who, the bear was named "Mohamed" after one of the kids in the class, and she's just been found guilty and 15 days in prison, then she'll be deported.
Chris Addison : British Rail never made this fuss when that bloke named that bear Paddington
Paul Merton : Yes, the mind boggles, never made a fuss then.
Clive Anderson : No.
Chris Addison : Just stuck him by some suitcases and gave him a marmalade sandwich.
Will Self : Well, you say that, but he'd been hanging round the station for ages with a label round his neck saying "Please introduce this bear to a life of Prostitution and Drug-addiction".
Clive Anderson : Unfortunately, he never bumped into you! So, you know. Do you think her mistake was allowing the pupils in the class to take a vote?
Ian Hislop : She didn't make any mistakes!
Will Self : Yeah.
Clive Anderson : No.
Ian Hislop : She asked the children "What would you like to call the bear?", and they all said "Muhammed", and the boy said "Because my name's Muhammed."And she was surrounded by lunatics. Who then said "Death to the Primary School Teacher! Behead middle-aged women who'd like to do children a favour now!" And then taken to Court "This is a serious offence!", senior Muslim clerics in Sudan saying "Oh yes, this is on a par with Salman Rushdie!" "Oh yes, of course it is! Let's lash her!"
Chris Addison : Senior Sudanese clerics were saying that this is part of a Western Plot against Islam, which is a rubbish plot.
Paul Merton : To be fair, it has been uncovered in the early stages!
Chris Addison : "We start with the bears, we move on to the giraffes, and from there Chaos, my friends!"
Paul Merton : "The Animal Kingdom is ours!"
Ian Hislop : Anyway, they're moderate in the Sudan, at least she wasn't in Saudi!

Guest : He was up for Sports Personality of the Year, now was he ever going to win, that's the thing.
David Mitchell : Over 100,000 people signed a Petition asking he be removed from the shortlist.
Ian Hislop : It's an unfortunate immediate reaction to everything you don't like: Just Ban it! You could argue against it, or point out it's wrong or listen to it, but no, just Ban it!
Andy Hamilton : He is a boxer, he gets hit in the head for a living! I'm not sure that the intellectual expectation... don't broadcast this either!
David Mitchell : What did he actually say, Fury?
Andy Hamilton : Homosexuals and Pedophiles, that needs to be sorted before the End of the World. So he's put a kind of deadline on it. And he said women belong in the kitchen or on their backs.
Paul Merton : That makes cooking quite difficult, doesn't it?
Andy Hamilton : It does!
Paul Merton : One of those low level ovens I suppose. I mean, she'd have to be up for it...
