QI AUDIENCE PLEASURES

I went on the BBC Official Homepage (BBC website link here) and typed into the search bar "QI clips". This lead me to a large collection of small clips from shows. I watched a few of these and found one called 'Who or what is a long-necked Karen' from series 'K'. 

The clip I watched is here.

Audience Pleasures:
In this extract you see the familiar faces of Stephen Fry and Alan Davies who are in every episode. Stephen plays to role of the superior intellectual quiz-master and Alan acts as the fool (also known as a scapegoat). We develop on-screen relationships with these TV personalities. Relationships are one of the four categories for media consumption and it allows audiences to form connections with the comedians. In this clip there is physical and verbal humour when Alan Davies is messing around and acting out how your head wouldn't be supported by a long neck. The other panellists contribute to the verbal humour by making silly comments. This clip is light-hearted and comical and so provides pleasure to the audience.
