QI Compilation | Best Of Alan's Animal Impressions

A compilation of some of Alan's best animal impressions.
As there are so many, we're sure to make a sequel, so don't worry if your favourite isn't in there.

The "Hello!" gets me every single time.

[AlanCanon]

I thinking, Alan, sitting there, year after year, nailing the character of the Holy Fool, when the reality is he's invested thousands of hours and decades of his life participating in making QI the absolute cultural institution that it is within the English speaking world. It is said that Alan does no preparation but that cannot be so: someone like that is going to be integral to a television production in the days leading up to the shoot, and television production is not an easy thing to do. His really is an incredible performance.

I love anytime David's rivalry with the QI Klaxon is on display.

[Kalah_]

Suggestion for compilation: Alan's creative statements. Sometimes, he has some really interesting and intuitive ones, such as asking: if the spider evolved before insects, what did it catch?

[janiem.roberts]

No one funnier or cuter than Allan. He can make any animal sound great.

[TheHutchy]

I wonder if there's a video of David's crusade against the klaxon.

Sandy: Alan, do an impression of a cat
Alan: _Hello, I’m a cat_

[raeward]

“Is everything ok at home Alan?” Dead 🤣🤣🤣

[ReegusReever]

Alan's frog impression from the dog bowl story is one of my favourite.

This is just a wonderful 1st of February gift. Thank you QI!

Many years ago I went to London, never bought any thing and went into a wh smiths and bought Alan's video, it was the first time I saw his impressions, he made me laugh so much, he is the king of animal impressions

[SigridFrensen]

When I take my boys to the beach they love to roll around in the shallow water and go I'm a Beluga whale, you know...!" (and every line that follows...)

[reggiej]

Nothing better than seeing a Brit doing an impression of a French lobster.

[fredhasopinions]

Bill Bailey's many unexpected skills and talents take you by surprise so often! There's so many things he's great at or knows a lot about and you totally don't see it coming until the minute he uses them like the nonchalant bugger he is. Impressive.

[vasilip]

Where's the frog in a dog water bowl impression?

[lys]

I have realised why I watch QI, it reminds me of the nerdy group I was part of in school 😊

[BNL]

He's too silly! Can I take him home? Aisling too?

[robertgransee]

Are we just going to ignore the fact that the dissolves between the scenes are in the shapes of animals? Absolutely brilliant!

(IDK if I can post links, but I'll try to in the first reply)

[pratikaku]

all of alan's animal impressions are great, but nothing beats his julie andrews impression.

[GreenWitchesKitchen]

I want Alan to do a series of animated animal documentaries. He is amazing.
