What does “number wang” mean?


Is it just a silly, meaningless sketch?

reply

Numberwang is just a nonsense word. The Numberwang sketches are a parody of daytime gameshows that have utterly obscure and incomprehensible rules.

'Right, the shop is closed, everybody get out! Back on the streets, you time-wasting bastards!'

reply

Cool, fair enough. I always found the sketch to be a bit silly.

Heh, I always quite enjoyed it, but that was mainly due to the excellent Paterson Joseph - 'No, no, no, I don't sing in Angleseeeeey!

The acting is good. The set is huge – I suppose they film that scene live.

"I always found the sketch to be a bit silly."

That's the point, that the gameshow is pointless. Like when the rotate the board, it serves no purpose.

heheh, don`t take it seriousely.

Although "The Numberwang Code" is quite obviously a parody on the DaVinci Code, or would it be a parody on the Omega code? or maybe even... Numbers ?
Ah well, I liked the parody better than the trailers of those movies..
lol, they had a good sense of humour in making that one.

Numberwang, is a great concept, but you have to like absurd humor to enjoy it. As an American I've noticed that many people in this country don't like it as much, rather they like situational humor. Whatever the case, since I can now get BBC America, and can get the excellent BBC radio on the net, I'm much happier.

You know all those pointless gameshows that are on in the middle of the day in which the host is obviously as bore as the viewers where the contestants look like deer trapped in headlights because even they can't fathom the meaninglessness of the tasks they are asked to perform, well its taking the piss out of that!

Numberwang numbers like any group of numbers that numbers meet the definition of that group
