The setup

A bullying chat-show host demands a straight yes-or-no from his panel of boffins on whether God exists, then cannot cope when they disagree.

The premise

Here’s the bit.

Raymond Terrific, the frantic host of the discussion programme Big Talk, opens by promising to settle the biggest question of all: is there a God? He leans on panelist Leonard to give a one-word answer and congratulates himself on the result, until Leonard's reply and a colleague's contradiction leave the panel openly divided. Raymond treats the disagreement as a personal affront, pleads for a casting vote from the others, and gets only a polite admission of agnosticism, at which he angrily demands a definite answer and is stunned to be told there is none.

The funny people

Meet the cast. 5

Say it with us

Highly quotable.

Answer can't be as long as the question, Leonard.

Guys, boffins, we need to know if there's a God. It's important.

I can think of two yes or no answers just off the top of my head!

    i think the problem we're having here is that Leonard thinks there is a God, and I think there isn't.
