The regulars and frequent (at least two appearances to their name) guests of the BBC 1 Panel Show QI:


Regulars

Stephen Fry

Alan Davies

  • Adorkable
  • Butt Monkey
  • Curious as a Monkey: If the panel is handed a fragile historical artifact or common household tool, Alan will play with it. No exceptions.
  • The Ditz: In the first few series particularly, but in later series him managing to win or come second place has become more common. As of Series H, however, he has slipped back into this.
  • Obfuscating Stupidity: From a special on the making of the show, it seems that he's sometimes obligated to give the "stupid answers" that would make the klaxon go off.
