this is so strange finally seeing what they look like...

[alixmcknight]

It’s 2021 and I’m rewatching the No Such Thing as the News series for comfort and a good laugh. The QI elves never disappoint.

[iarampatta]

They all look COMPLETELY different to what I imagined. I have no idea how I feel about this...

[joss]

I've seen a picture of them before, but never seen them speak, in my head I've mixed up all their voices.

[PhilBoswell]

OK, whose genius idea was it to sort the playlist in reverse order?

[sevenspiders]

It's so great to see what you guys actually look like! Anna, I always imagined as a bouncy, excited and intelligent young woman, and I was so glad to see she looked like one too! Love the show guys!

[sianchild]

1) I love Anna's top (where's it from?)2) I really hope it gets a second series3) You guys are my answer to that question "Who would you invite to a dinner party?"

[torque]

Oh my god. They're all so CUTE! 😂 Dead funny too 💛

discovered these were uploaded here thanks to the 20-hour live... comfort watching in 2021 ♡♪

I imagined James as Morse from the tv show Endeavour, until now. Their voices are somehow quite similar

[happivaras]

Grapevines have been turning water into wine/grapejuice for millions of years 😊

[QuiggleSan]

Gaah, I listen to the podcast at 1.5x, so the theme tune sounds so slow here...

[damodrummer]

The sound of one hand clapping in an invisible forest ;-)

[mrfuzzer]

Am i the only one here thanks to "Smart enough to know better"

Oh and this is awesome btw! Finding a new podcast is like christmas. So much more entertainment to consume!

[eddyez]

I think by corrected they mean they added some of the graphics and trivia at the bottom of the screen

[CurveTheRain]

They look so different than in my head! 😅 i always thought Anna had short hair and that James was an actual child!

[keeganharrison]

I am literally the biggest fan of you guys

[Giganfank]

Please tell me this is still on the air.

Is the word lignite beeing mentioned at 15:00 as part of wood that is beeing dissolved? The correct word would be lignin.

[danats]

Even if I now got a face to the voices, I still imagine someone else when listening to the pod xD
