It isn't just you, I've always wondered why as well, I could understand more if there were 10 or 12 or more but not for just 7 colours :D

Is anyone else surprised, or even puzzled that so many people seemingly need a mnemonic to remember the order of the colours of the rainbow? Isn't it obvious just by looking at them? Or is it just me?

Loved it! Good line up, David Baddiel is great. He’s friends with Ricky Gervais, they did a couple podcasts on YouTube, him Ricky and Noel Gallagher from oasis. Their chemistry and stories were fantastic

Hi Josh, Rose does appear on US late night shows every now and again so thats why you may have seen her before but you'll have read or seen things that David Baddiel has written or helped on funny or serious as he's worked on plays, books, cartoons, TV shows, films and is well known in American Jewish celebrity community for his books on antisemitism. You might not remember but Baddiels comedy partner is Frank Skinner from series 1 of taskmaster.

I agree, this episode was great. LOL that was hilarious. I have never heard them called that name, I believe they are usually just called tangerines, but the brand you always see is called "Cuties"

Good start to the series :) David Badiel asking if he meant the second longest snake in the world was great 😅
Josh, I think the little orange you were thinking of is a satsuma :)

Not sure where the name eggplant came from, but due to the influences on the English language in Europe compared to America, generally speaking we've borrowed French names for a few vegetables (aubergine, courgette, roquette) whereas America borrowed some Italian (zucchini, arugula).
Satsuma was the type of orange from the previous series you were thinking of, and a quick Google tells me that apparently 'mandarin' is an umbrella term for several types of orange : satsumas, clementines and tangerines!

This was the season that was airing when I first discovered the show. Can't believe the 15th season is starting soon.
