Um Actually Statements (Questions)

This page is dedicated to collating the "questions" from the show Um, Actually. The episodes are arranged in the order they appear on DropOut, with "Season Zero" being labeled as "Bonus Content" (and also confusingly "Season 5" in the minor subtitles) on DropOut.

These statements are also admittedly sometimes incorrectly referred to as questions on the show.

A * marks a point that was "scooped" from a player because they did not preface their answer with "Um, actually...". The player who lost the point in listed in parentheses.
