Noel Fielding's Reddit interview is wonderfully wordy

The inimitable Noel Fielding is currently in the US working on his upcoming comedy tour, but he took some time out to answer questions via Reddit's Ask Me Anything.

Radio Times review

Two startling moments arrive in rapid succession this week. The first is Arsenal legend and football pundit Ian Wright launching what's more or less a feminist critique of Grease: as the father of daughters, he disapproves of the hoops the female characters have to jump through, and indeed the trousers they have to squeeze into, to be deemed worthy of the males. In the consequent badinage, host Frank Skinner claims not to be able to sing "Hopelessly Devoted" to You without bawling. He's willing to demonstrate.

Hard pushed to compete with this are Joanna Scanlan, who accurately details the top no-nos when sharing a butter knife, and spider-hater Noel Fielding.

Talk about broadening your remit. Usually, C4's Big Fat Quizzes are merely satisfied with tackling year-sized slices of pop culture and current affairs. This time, though, Jimmy Carr rocks up with a panel game covering a whopping 100,000 years of human history. Guests including Mel Giedroyc, Richard Ayoade, Noel Fielding and Chelsea Peretti attempt to wring whimsy from historical happenings such as witch hunting, landmarks in the biological sciences and - nostalgia alert - 1970s board games.

Review: Noel Fielding, Colston Hall

Two words: audience participation. If they don't make you cower in your theatre seat, you may enjoy the second act of An Evening With Noel Fielding. But you've got to sit through a wonderfully whimsical stand-up set first.

An Evening with Noel Fielding - review

For fans this is a must see show, but even those with little knowledge of Fielding's more off-beat work should find this an entertaining and joyful evening of comedy.

An Evening with Noel Fielding hits the road

One half of The Mighty Boosh takes his surrealist humour on tour and talks tennis line judges, after-show fun and peppermint tea.

With the imperial QI war of succession over, and Sandi Toksvig taking over from Stephen Fry as schoolmaster-in-chief, dad TV's favourite quiz-ee Alan Davies has slowly been expanding his own media principality. His Dave show, for which he sits in the host's chair, takes the bold step of not actually being a quiz, with guests from Germaine Greer to Noel Fielding chatting round a table, unburdened by the uniquely British love of point-scoring.
