JEEEEHZZ!! I forgot how embarrassing these can be! xD
I do enjoy them though, and the whole panel was fun! I dare you all to guess my score before you start watching. It is between 0-35. May the odds for be ever in your favor! =p

The marathon/snickers name change started the running joke of Mel being gently informed about various not-very-recent name changes and then other recent news events.
Without replaying the video, I do recall several uk confectionary products mentioned, all of which were genuine name changes. Opal fruits renamed to Starburst is the only example I can remember now. Ok so The independent did an article: Dime bar is now Daim Bar and Lilt was given a generic Fanta flavored name.

Aww c'mon JB! Cut her a little slack, that was a totally reasonable guess. (So to be fair, I partly say that because I had no idea who he was either and I guessed the same thing). ๐

You need to start throwing the word "rubbish" around willy nilly, that's the easiest way to sound very British! ๐

Sorry Mandy, you do know this reference but it was a while ago so fair enough. When Karl first got the chance to do a little 5 minute programme on Channel 4, before Idiot Abroad, someone called Wendy wrote to a newspaper to complain. They talked about it on the podcats and Karl got pissed off and said something like "well let's see Wendy's little programme then!" ๐

Yeah. I dont think he sounds at all like Statham. But it was funny

Lol. Argentinian TV is AWFUL!! Do not recommend at all. They are also obsessed with the Simpsons and some stupid Mexican show. There is a law here that all shows have to be dubbed and the voice overs are just horrible. No British shows whatsoever.
Mandy Cane Lane
2024-01-19 00:00:02 +0000 UTC
On the quiz, I'd say as expected considering it was mainly stuff from UK that I wouldn't expect you to know.
On the reaction, fridgin' awesome.

Hmm.. you really got me thinking about the art question. I don't believe I have ever made anything that hasn't lasted. I have thrown out some art pieces because they were too big to keep, but they would have lasted. Art in pictures does no justice. But what can I say? Let there be cake ๐คฃ
Ohh, I though a Marathon was just a similar candy bar ๐คญ
I was on fire with the picture puzzle ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Days in the rounder part of the world are long but the people are short, lol.

I started the squeak thing because I always use headphones, and before I got a new set, every time she laughed it would knock out the left ear. Now I just do it to tease her.

I wasn't keeping track of my score but I probably did worse than Mandy. It's possible I got zero. I definitely kept a clean sheet on squeaks though so that's something! ๐
paul
2024-01-16 11:22:22 +0000 UTC
I had every confidence in her. Unfortunately, only someone obsessed with celebrity culture would have got top marks. Well, that's my excuse anyway ๐. The squeaks are still being counted. My team assures me the results will be in by Friday.

Although I suppose then it would be a case of what can Mandy's memory retain from the last year... ๐
paul
2024-01-16 08:38:06 +0000 UTC
I wish, Steven! Mandy said in the video that Flowers by Miley Cyrus was voted "The Most Consumed Song" of the year or something. It's like when people say "content". "Oooh I've just consumed some content by one of my favourite content creators." Just say you've watched one of Mandy's videos... or one of "Wendy's little programmes" ๐

I only watched a news story about it on YouTube. I downloaded an episode with English subs, but the quality was unwatchable. There are episodes on YouTube. The trouble is they are speaking some sort of weird ancient language that nobody understands. ๐คฃ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3i9Ao5etWnc https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2771946/

Songs that are 'consumed' rather than listened to, do you mean like Hestons chocolate radio Paul?
Stevus
2024-01-16 01:26:47 +0000 UTC
Miss Mandy has far too much integrity to do that JB. (Re: your original comment)
Stevus
2024-01-16 00:28:45 +0000 UTC
Congratulations for a very respectable score given the circumstances. I pretty much gave up and was just in it for the lolz. Speaking of which, the 'say what you see' question when you realised midway that you were actually doing it! That was one of the best moments ever! And when you paused it on Katherine with the funny face, you were thinking IT, I was thinking Joan River's! ๐ค๐คฃ This video has left me with one big question though. A question I fear will never be answered to any degree of satisfaction. A question which could have profound ramifications should the truth be revealed, but there are greater, more powerful and capable agents at work here, obscuring any semblance of possibility, let alone probability! But what can those of us with just a genuine and honest curiosity do? I really don't know. Until the gatekeepers reveal these profound truths to us, we'll have to retreat to our imaginations and settle for just dreaming of what that little alien body would taste like in teryaki style. ๐คฃ๐คช please check your emails and dm's. ๐ค๐๐ฆ

Who calls their kid Demic? Have you never heard any Welsh or Irish etc names before Jellybean? Totally reasonable guess as far as I'm concerned.

Madonna egging her crowd on to do a guff on command was a bit of a low point. As audience participation goes, it's not exactly Queen at Live Aid.
paul

Yeah I laughed at Gary Neville presenting his amazing discovery of "the long weekend" to the world. He should have asked Mandy for input on the name though, I don't see "mini retirement" catching on. Bit of a Brent moment for Gary. Money don't make his world go round, he's reaching out to a higher ground... Fact!
paul
2024-01-15 16:30:20 +0000 UTC
I wasn't keeping score but I don't think I did much better than you tbh. Don't have much interest in pop culture really so... Also I got a good laugh from the idea of Gary Neville coining the term 'sexcation', so cheers for that!

Hahaha, thank god, I thought Karl had died or something for a moment. That's a joke from xfm, isn't it? Last night, for the first time in years I was listening to the two bbc radio 5 episodes they did at xmas 2005 covering for jonathan ross. I hope Mandy tacks them on to the end of the xfm shows as it's basically the same thing just on a different station. They talk about the baby jesus receiving gold, frankincense and myrrh from the 3 kings and Karl asks, "so were those presents for christmas or his birthday?" ๐คฃ

I was going to watch part 2 seconds later, but it ended up being a day later for me too as the second link was temporarily down. I don't think a low score in this is anything to be ashamed of considering how trashy the subject matter is. I liked the way you said "arsehole" the British way, not "asshole" AAAWS

You scored more than I did Mandy. I know not much about the B class celebrity gossip tripe.
The very last one about Miley Cyrus Flowers, that you guessed and only Kathryn and Rosie wrote down too.... the other two teams had different answers. I dunno why but when Jimmy said the answer and it was you that was right, I vocally cheered for you "Yess!!!!". :)
Considering the questions about UK crap news, I'm not surprised you didn't get some of these. I live here and I had no freaking clue.
Two lines you said that made me laugh was "Oh Kevin Bridges knows, dammit!" and your amazing line of "I'm in the rounder part of the world" after Jimmy said "..from around the world", was fantastic. :)
I guessed 18 points for you but I thought they gave 3 each time... so I was right! Haha :)
Oh and that part where you tapped the headphones with your pencil and said "Ow!", you do make me laugh. Loved it.

I was going to suggest this as I just finished watching your reactions to the older few. I watched the first half of the reaction with my daughter, but she, like you, needed a break. We later watched the second half as I already had it downloaded but I'd not watched it yet. I appreciate you did this, and I will be watching the second part of your reaction soon. I didn't do too well, although I completely randomly guessed Madonna's asking them to fart. I had no idea at all, but I got it right :)

Hiya Mandy, welcome to part 2!
8:53 Mandy: โWasted on cakeโ So youโre not a fan of ephemeral art? Have you had to create any art work that didnโt stand the test of time? Was it worth the effort?

12:36 Mel: โI have that trouble with marathon and snickers, for me itโs always a marathonโ Hear hear! lol You look nonplussed Mandy ๐ Itโs as obvious as it seems: In the UK we never used to call the chocolate bar snickers, My favourite lunch time snack at school was always called a Marathon bar. I think we were an anomaly for a long time. (Google says they originally avoided the name โsnickersโ on its release in 1967 because it rhymed with knickers) Obviously they forced a name change on us back in 1990 so they could rehash foreign โsnickersโ advertising campaigns on us, the bar-stewards! Took me years to get used to the name change ๐
14:31 Popes last a long time? They pick em old Mandy ๐ Actually having googled the list of popes, it looks like they change oooh, roughly โonce in a blue moonโ? ๐ค
16:00 Feckโs sake Mandy, gimme a chance - I havenโt seen this episode and youโre solving the picture word puzzle before Iโve had a look at the bloominโ thing! Lemmie put my dessert down first ๐ Too late! - yeah letโs call him Demic hehe sounds more plausible than (pan) Demonium
22:34 I reckon Jimmy actually does a very generous double-act with Rosie, sets her up for pithy punchlines all the time!
23:30 Zuckerberg had much better odds than Musk - Muskโs mom had to bail him out ๐คฃ
31:48 Mandy: โIโm in the rounder part of the worldโ - whatโs it like in the rounder part of the world? Do you have shorter days? Are skyscrapers in danger of falling into orbit? Or are the people just massive?!
32:42 Rosie: โHe could also have been talking about playing wink murder with youโ a callback to the โhave you met Muskโ conversation with Jimmy earlier in the show. Someone mentioned โwink murderโ - a party game apparently!
40:21 โHow often do you think about the Roman Empire?โ WTF?! Now it makes sense lol, I was asked that very question a few months ago, no context! - I though it odd, but I replied โฆ lemmie dig up my answer from September before I get the full contextโฆ (the magic of WhatsApp search hehe) Gary: โWe owe a lot of modern day society to the roman empire, am I thinking about the roman empire if i use my tap to fill the kettle or drive my car on the motorway?โ โฆ โThe Roman Empire doesn't usually pop into my thoughts, unless I'm watching Plebs, which is a sitcom based in Roman times ๐โ. Ok, lets see what Jimmy has to say about this โฆ Oh, weโre supposed to think about it all the time?! lol-nope
48:46 Kevin: โHe won the John Terry invitationalโ I didnโt get it either Mandy, whoosh!
52:57 Damian Lewis who sang the national anthem is a bloominโ actor Mandy! (and maybe a self professed singer ๐คฃ) I remember him from Homeland, the compromised hostage.
55:11 Jimmy: โWith destroyed buildings, a lack of basic sanitation, and violence erupting on every street corner โฆ you can finish that joke yourselves, canโt you?โ Mandy: *grimace* โฆ Cโmon - that was funny! He could be talking about Ukraine but was really talking about Liverpool. Were you distracted? Itโs one of Jimmyโs classic โyou think Iโm talking about this, when Iโm talking about thatโ jokes โฆ Yeah - I know, warโs bad, here have one of these ๐ค
57:59 Mandy: โThe people that know these things, and me, are literally on different parts of the planet, Iโm so lost with most of thisโ. I feel the same way yet my geographical proximity has nothing to do with it!
Sounds like you already know more about the Kardashians than myself, and Iโd like to keep it that way!
1:06:41 Whoosh! For me too, never watched Love Island.
Itโs been a long slog to get thru this - I can tell youโre just waiting for it to be over now already - like me!
Congrats of completing it in 2 parts! ๐
Youโve done me a favour, killed 2 birds with one stone. 1st time watching this with you, and I hope I never have to watch this episode again ๐คฃ They do go on a bit! ๐
Ha! I watched this *early*, so guaranteedโข๏ธ a Mandy response ๐๐

Hiya Mandy! Ok, Iโll make this a 2 parter. Hereโs part 1:
Oh my gawd, only 2 mins in of an hour long video, and Iโm writing notes already, and itโs only part 1!!! Yeah, Jimmyโll be wearing a loose knit tie Mand. Thereโs plenty of em around and by Jimmyโs standards, thatโs him dressing down smart casual ๐
No no nope, I refuse to elaborate on the multitude of tedious celeb scandals of the year - made me wanna turn off the news as much back then as it does now!
7:35 Mel: โI used to wear a Trilbyโ - a narrow brimmed hat, like a fedora but with a narrower brim and a shorter crown ๐ค
8:40 the middle Kevin Bridges AI is Chandler Bing! (Or some boyband clone)
10:12 Nope, Iโm not elaborating on the Harry/Megan debacle, youโre better off unburdened by the details.
30:53 - Dame Emma (Thompson) looking very much unlike I remember her ๐
31:51 bless u
38:43 indignado - indignant ๐ค
55:33 Kathy: โOh it was hilariousโ sheโs obviously referring to sensationalist press reporting of the โI wish you wellโ comment.
55:56 โWhy does cannibalism keep coming up in everything I watch?โ - No spoilers, I havenโt caught up! ๐คฃ โฆ Mossโs viola playing frankfurter dinner guest episode was 16 years ago!!! Not last month hehe. - Oh it reminds me of the Simpsons Halloween episode Treehouse of Terror - from early in the 2nd season, I remember the cookbook reveal from the first time watching it, just like it was yesterday, โHow To Cook Humansโ Homer: โNobody, but nobody eats the Simpsonsโ โฆ Alien: โItโs just a little dustyโโฆ โHow To Cook for Humansโ Lisa: โWait a minuteโ โHow To Cook Forty Humansโ Alien: โThereโs more space dustโ โHow To Cook for Forty Humansโ and so Lisaโs mistrust ended their familyโs chance at paradise ๐ข
58:40 You have way more points than me at this point - a haunting feeling of irrelevance is creeping over me ๐ฑ

OK GO! The aeroplane song is 'upside down and inside out'. They do make really cool videos, but as you say, the music is a bit McAverage. Although I did quite like 'Here it goes again'.
Stevus

Yeah, I think she did better than me! I'm quite happy to know nothing about 'popular' culture though.
Stevus
2024-01-14 19:10:44 +0000 UTC
Yes, the hair! I feel like he must have also had so much work done, even the shape of his face/head is so different. Remember he used to do jokes himself, about how big and round his head was.

What kind of future are we leaving for the kids? What kind of kids are we leaving for the future? Maybe the planet wants to die. That was perfect. I'm with you on not knowing most of the "celebrities" We need to stop making stupid people famous. I don't know how many pants I would count myself as having either๐. Jason Stamos is the guy who works in my local kebab shop. I couldn't see it well, but I think I have the same Queen T-shirt. I thought you did well. I didn't do much better. As always, thank you for entertaining us Squeaks ๐ค

I have put off watching this years quiz JUST for this moment!!
Well worth the wait I'm sure. OK, I don't know whether Mandy meant embarrassing in terms of the contestants or for her and the scoring. Sooo... my guess is 18. Half plus a half. :)
18 because there's likely to be some news events that Mandy won't have even heard of, but as she's also smart and perceptive, I'm balancing the scales in the middle. :) I hope I'm wrong and it's more. :)
Oh yes, also 12 back of-the-throat-voice exclamations, 5 squeaks, 5 anecdotes and plenty of laughs. Again, I hope for more of everything :)
Will be watching this evening and I'll post afterwards.

2024-01-14 13:31:05 +0000 UTC
I'm guessing a score of 22 and 3 squeaks. I will find out later.
