* CallBack: When the topic of discussion in “Random” turned to coconuts, she anecdotally mentioned that they can’t be sent to Fiji via mail. Sandi was utterly confounded why Sally would try in the first place, until she mentioned she did it in [[Series/Taskmaster Taskmaster]] (during the Series 5 finale).

** In an episode where Fry revealed he owned both a copper teakettle and an Aga stove, an exasperated Phil Jupitus exclaimed "It's no wonder Twinings had you, pal!"

* ObfuscatingStupidity: Puts on an extremely ditzy persona when Sandi recruits her to help with a mathematical demonstration.

* DreamingOfThingsToCome: Dreamed before the show that one of the questions would be "Why was the march hare important to the Aztecs". At the end of the show, this very question was asked. (Of course, it is likely the question was prepared during the show, however, it did in fact have a coherent answer, still fitting the spirit of this trope.)

!Creatir/RobBrydon

!Rob Brydon

* Main/OneOfUs: Seen wearing ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' and ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' T—shirts in some episodes.

* OneOfUs: He's a tremendous Bond fan, as you probably gathered by the fact he publishes the "Young Bond" series.

* AscendedExtra: Replaced Stephen as presenter in Series N.

!Creator/DavidMitchell

* ActorAllusion: Other panellists often make jabs at his role in ''[[JonathanCreek Jonathan Creek]]''.

-->Area of expertise: ElvisPresley, allegedly

* EpicFail: Currently holds the record for the lowest score by a guest panelist on the show: -76 in the "Germany" episode. (Alan, the lone regular panelist, has done worse: -84 on "Cleve Crudgington" under normal circumstances, and there have been special circumstances where he's gone even lower.)

* ButtMonkey: Always gets the silliest introduction and the most ridiculous buzzer sound, and his answers are generally the most likely to set off the klaxon. In some episodes, his buzzer is rigged to act very strangely when he presses it, such as not working at all, shorting out the studio lights, or even ''setting off the forfeit klaxon.''

* ButtMonkey: Always gets the silliest introduction and the most ridiculous buzzer sound, and his answers are generally the most likely to set off the klaxon. In some episodes, his buzzer is rigged to set off the klaxon (and cost him 10 points) ''every time he presses it.''

* ButtMonkey: Always gets the silliest introduction and the most ridiculous buzzer sound, and his answers are generally the most likely to set off the klaxon.

* ButtMonkey

* RantComedy: Many of his responses and reactions. The [=BBC=] made a supercut of his "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6vLp07ZePY angry logic]]".

* FakeBrit: Well, yes and no. Is actually Danish and lived in America for a long time during her childhood, but speaks with noticeable and posh-sounding [[UsefulNotes/BritishAccents Received Pronunciation]], as she was educated in England and has long since become a naturalised British citizen. She said on one episode she based her speech on actress Celia Johnson's after being made fun of for the strong Brooklyn accent she had as a girl when she was first sent to British boarding school.
