I think a lot of us here watch QI. It's one of my favourite programmes.

For those of you that have never seen it, you should be able to see it HERE - although I don't know whether that link will work outside the UK.

My question is, who is your favourite panellist? Who would you like to see on there? Who don't you like?

I'd like to see Sue Perkins on there more often. I really enjoy seeing Sandi Tokvig on there and it's always good to see Bill Bailey. :laugh:

I've recently started watching it on occasion. It's not bad. Not something that I'd go out of my way to watch, but it's good for a laugh if nothing else is on. :)

I'd love to see Eddie Izzard on there again. I think (I may be wrong) that he was only ever on the pilot episode. You can see the pilot episode here.
According to Wikipedia, that was the case. They have a list of guests who appeared multiple times. You should see how many times Bill Bailey's been on.

I'm happy to watch any of the panelists, except Phil Jupitus (thinks he's sooo funny it's like he's trying to force me to laugh), John Sessions (not funny at all I'm afraid), John Lloyd (failed experiment) and Ronni Ancona (she was so clever she made all the men uncomfortable so they couldn't tell jokes, and she wasn't telling any).

Rich Hall, very funny :laugh:

I like David Mitchell the best I think, and then Lee Mack - they're both on Would I Lie to You? they're both so funny, but in such different ways.

And of course Alan Davies :laugh:

Bill Bailey and Dara O'Briain :laugh: I adore Dara, he's a seriously brilliant guy as well as being incredibly funny, and Bill is just a magical little gnome.

Cannot stand Jo Brand.......

Penfold - I used to like Michael Palin until I watched his travel show, which was very humourless and noticeably .....what's the word.......not racist, but something like it. His seemed very bemused by all these odd little foreign people. Sort of supercilious.

the maker of QI actually tried to get Michael Palin to present the show. He nearly gave up the idea when he couldn't get him. :eek:
