It'll probably be a while before it shows up on YouTube, but the XL repeat had a question about the "Great Disappointment" (when Jesus didn't return in 1844), followed by a bit about the Rapture in general, before Stephen Fry gave an outline of some of the features on Rapture Ready.
Suffice it to say they didn't take it particularly seriously.

QI? Steven Fry? Is this some wacky British show? Sounds cool though if they brought up the RR crowd in a less than serious manner.

I did love David Mitchell's line of questioning as to how you need to wear the right kind of clothes as you don't want to snag on them as you fly up.

I mentioned this in the Fundie Board of the Year poll/topic, it really tickled me XD I got so excited when Fry said it that my dad was momentarily terrified that I was a member of the board.
...which I am, but not in the way he feared I was.

I think it's been posted elsewhere, but it's funny enough to be posted twice.

"Is this in America by any chance?"
"However did you guess?"
That cracked me up.
