Stephen Fry[quoting Albert Einstein] Only two things are infinite - the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not so sure about the universe.

Rob BrydonWhen I was small and my dad just happened to hit his finger with a hammer for something new, he used to say, 'Hells bells and buckets of blood.'
Stephen FryThat's a good saying 'Hells bells and buckets of blood.' I usually just say "Fuck it!"

GuestOne thing I learned working on the Vagina Monologues is that the clitoris has no other function than pleasure. I liked that, nice that otherwise it was purely decorative.

Phill Jupitus[during a round about the sinking of the Titanic] Is it true that someone dressed as a lady to escape detection?
Stephen FryYes, apparently it is true because it was women and children first.
Bill Bailey[laughs] I thought you said "someone dressed as a *baby*"
Phill Jupitus[putting on posh accent] "Yes, goo-goo indeed. I have a lollipop and I have no control over my urinary functions. I am, in fact, an infant. And I know you think I'm Lord Albermal, but I am in fact a little baby. With a beard. Yes, goo-goo, gaa-gaa. And Madam, may I tell you I've been a very naughty baby."!

Alan Davies[after his buzzer is a sexy woman's voice saying "Ahoy, hello sailor"] Hang on, hang on, who was that?
Howard GoodallThe Quite Interesting thing about Bees is that they all died out in the First World War, they caught a bad cold, and we imported loads of Mexican Bees to keep the pollination going. So when they tell you that they're all native bees, they're not, actually.
Alan DaviesDo the British National Party know about this?
Jack DeeWas there ever a Homo Sapien/Neanderthal Wedding?

GuestI think Swedish Socialism comes from the Vikings: they have this concept "Larghomme" in Sweden which means "Just enough", which comes from sharing out the wine after a raid, making sure that there's no-one at the back who didn't get any.

David MitchellI love the fact we live in a Country with terrible Customer Service. You know, "This is a Terrible Train, you're tearing tickets in half, of course you look miserable!" I've got respect for that.
Stephen FryYes, I mean, why stand there with a cheesy grin on your face if your job is like that?
