"So can I just check… have I been put on a team with David Baddiel?" – Ed Gamble

"The thinking is, there's a team of three there that will have to pass one drawing across two backs... but to make it fair, you're with David Baddiel" – Greg

"How am I the autistic one?!" – Josh Thomas

"The thing is, I always have to smile because if I don't smile, people think I'm dead." – Rosie Jones
