We’ve seen some – what’s the politest way of putting it? – interesting points and questions raised by members of the Question Time audience over the years.
There was this one, for instance, a few years back, the woman who changed her mind from Remain to Leave at the last minute because she saw a straight banana in the supermarket.

And this one, from last night’s edition of the BBC1 discussion show, might be the – not mess around here – the dumbest yet.
It’s a woman who turned the clock back 65 million years to make a point about the train strikes and rail union leader Mick Lynch – as you might imagine – had the perfect response.
Woman on question time says train drivers must adapt to technology because the dinosaurs didn’t and “look what happened to them”

And Mick Lynch wasn’t the only person who had the perfect comeback. It prompted some very funny responses on Twitter and here are 13 of the best.

Wise words for the RMT. If you don’t accept compulsory redundancies and a real-terms wage cut, an asteroid will wipe out human life on earth. pic.twitter.com/GjuZ1UlNyz

Woman on #bbcqt compares the RMT to the dinosaurs.
Mick Lynch points out the dinosaurs were around for a very long time.
Woman says, "they're not with us now though, are they?"
And you 100% get the impression maybe *she's* responsible for the disappearance of the dinosaurs. pic.twitter.com/58t6lD3cQe

Come back T-Rex, all is forgiven.
