History Funny / NeverMindTheBuzzcocks

-->'''David Tennant:''' [=McFly's=] song contained the lyrics "Nothing on Earth could save us when I fell in love with Uranus," which, as it happens, was a line removed from the pilot episode of ''{{Torchwood}}''. ''[shakes fist]'' [[JohnBarrowman Barrowman!]] ''[growls]'' Dougie once received a thong in the post that had "Turn your erection in my direction" written on it. ''[shakes fist]'' Barrowman!
** Not to mention when Tennant begins to read out a joke about Kylie Minogue's favourite bra selling for six grand on [=eBay=], and Bernard Cribbins immediately asks "D'you wanna see it?" before he can get to the punchline. (Tennant then says that Cribbins' ad-lib was funnier than the scripted punchline.) Indeed, Cribbins' {{Deadpan Snarker}}y prompted Noel to suggest that he should come and write for ''TheMightyBoosh''.

-->'''Simon''': We also heard "Let's Dance" by David Bowie. David Bowie played Pontius Pilot in "The Last Temptation of Christ". I'm not saying he was wooden, but a certain Mr. Jesus Christ was nailed to him.

----

-->''Mark'': I bet you're like me. You never thought when you woke up this morning, you'd see Alexander O'Neal putting the smackdown on Bob the Builder.

** Immediately after, the lights around began to flash and we heard a voice say, "Congratulations! It's the worst joke of the show!" Simon immediately shook the hands Phil, then guests Jermaine Jackson and David Cross.

* As mentioned on the main page under BiligualBonus, Sean once used Gaelic profanity to determine who was the real Linda Nolan. However, what was ''really'' great about that round was that one of the contestants was ''Athelston''. Really, though, any time they bring out Athelston or a pirate is usually golden.

* On the series 8 Christmas special, a live Intros round with Bill Bailey (before he became a team captain) and Rick Wakeman in wizard outfits. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBTWr1ez6II and they keep inserting Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer into the songs, against Mark's wishes.]]

-->'''Phil Jupitus''': There's nothing quite like the TV stylings of two homosexuals talking about fannys...

** Also in that episode, Phill totally breaks and bellows "SHUT UP!" to the delight of the cast and audience.

---> '''Simon Amstell''': She would. Or kill me and make it look like suicide.

* '''Kelly Roland''': ''(flicking water at Simon)'' The power of Christ compels you.
'''Simon''': ''(deadpan)'' I'm a Jew.

* ''Kelly Roland'': -flicking water at Simon- The power of Christ compels you.
''Simon'': -deadpan- I'm a Jew.

* The episode with the bizarre and probably drunk Donny Tourettes, from the rubbish and useless wannabe-punk band Towers Of London. He runs off, then returns, only to start rubbing host Simon Amstell's nipples...? There's also Simon's "authentic punk dancing", the fact that the other guests on the show begin to mock and ridicule him with increasing obviousness (which, for the most part, he is either too vacant or vain to even notice) and the sheer ''awfulness'' of Donny's attempts at humour, including accusations that the show's regulars would "be at home on the streets."

--->'''Donny Tourettes:''' You only have me on here because you fancy me.
--->'''Simon Amstell:''' No, it's 'cause we have trouble booking guests!

--->'''Donny Tourettes:''' Yeah, well here's what I think of you! (grabs his own crotch in an insulting gesture.)

(Tennant then says that Cribbins' ad-lib was funnier than the scripted punchline.)
** Or Catherine Tate's panicked guess at the lyrics to Bowie's song "Space Oddity" -- "Ground Control to Major Tom....something about the cigarettes...do something with your haiiiiiiir....."

** Or the Noel's team having to pick Dr. Feelgood bassist John B. Sparks out of a line-up including a ''Dalek''; they speculate that the real Sparks is probably hiding in the Dalek casing.

* And Simon Amstell's reaction to Preston storming off in a huff after reacting very badly to being made fun of: a nonchalant "Oh no, we can't lose Preston."

* In the Intros round of the LeeMack-hosted episode of Series 24, Phill sang the opening guitar riff to Blur's "Country House", and Lee immediately interrupted by singing "Batman!" (the aforementioned riff sounding uncannily like the guitar riff from the theme to the ''{{Series/Batman}}'' television series); Phill then made a second attempt, and this time Lee led the ''entire audience'' in a chorus of "Batman!" He insisted that twice was enough and three times would be overdoing the joke, but after Phill sang the opening riff for the third time, he stopped and glared at Lee, who simply shrugged innocently... and then a random audience member yelled [[RuleOfThree "Batman!"]]

* From the DoctorWho-themed special, the following pair of anecdotes read after the first round:

---> '''Noel Fielding''': Don't make me cut the stuffing out of your pillow.
---> '''Simon Amstell''': (sarcastically) With a pair of scissors made of glitter?
---> '''Noel Fielding''': No, with a motorbike made of jealousy!

--->'''Rhod:''' At the end of that round... you didn't score very much.
--->'''Noel:''' You were panicking more than we were. I mean, there was a sense of urgency.
--->'''Rhod:''' Yes, there was a sense of urgency! It's a sense of urgency 'cause that's meant to be a quick-fire round! That's not panicking!
--->'''Noel:''' But you're Welsh, ''and'' with a sense of urgency! He's American! He had no fucking idea what you were talking about!
--->'''Rhod:''' Yeah. I know, I am one for talking gibberish, Noel.

--->'''Noel:''' Lee, that was my fault, I put the Riddler on the guest list!
