00:00Hello, hello, hello, hello and welcome to QI for another desperate paddle on the shores of the unknown and holding
00:09the buckets and spades tonight are Sean Locke, Jimmy Carr, Laurie McGrath and Alan Davis.
00:25Well, we are concentrating tonight on common knowledge, so each of our panel has a common noise. Sean goes. Jimmy
00:37goes. Rory goes. And Alan goes.
00:46Order! Order! Oh, that is, of course, the House of Commons. But the answer to one of the questions tonight
00:54is so extraordinary and difficult, I certainly don't think you're going to get it right. And if you do, I'll
01:00give you 100 points.
01:02So, with that in mind, Sean, name the commonest bird in the world.
01:09Er, Dave, well, yeah, obviously the temptation is to say somebody who's a bit of a slapper. But I rise
01:18above that, obviously. Is it a duck?
01:21It's not a duck.
01:23Can I say it must be the, erm, domesticated chicken.
01:26Oh, he's absolutely right. Well done.
01:30It's not very funny. What a good start.
01:33The Kinsey Report demonstrated that one in six men in Iowa had had sex with a chicken.
01:40Is it like they're in the room? You know, if they've got a chicken sitting next to you, they've actually
01:45had sex with chicken.
01:46With, against, inside one, as it were, yes.
01:48Really? Do you see, I mean, I don't know anything about it. Is it like, this is like cockfighting, or
01:52is it different from...
01:57I cannot speak from personal experience.
01:59I don't know what the female chickens, erm, aperture, is that the right word?
02:04Get an egg out of it.
02:06Well, it hasn't...
02:08Good point.
02:10You'll probably be all right girth-wise.
02:13What a lovely thought, Alan.
02:15Mmm.
02:15Especially if you've got an egg-shaped cock.
02:18Well, then they lied on it.
02:22Do you think he had a question that said, have you ever had sex with a chicken?
02:25And like, one in six people go, yep.
02:29Or did he catch one in six men in Iowa?
02:37Do we know that it was actual, proper, you know, sexual intercourse?
02:41Well, they definitely didn't get a blowjob off of it.
02:45Quick, tech on the cheek, for a bit.
02:48I'm going to raise the tone now.
02:49Why did the inventor of the decimal point encourage his servants to stroke his cock?
02:57Well raised.
02:58Yes, thank you.
03:00Is it because, if you've got servants, you would, wouldn't you?
03:05Well, I'm more interested in the decimal point thing, because you said he invented the decimal point.
03:10So before that, they didn't have a fraction.
03:12So would they say something like, well, 23 and, like, a bit?
03:15They would say a half, and they'd say a quarter, and they'd say four fifths, and they'd say seven tenths.
03:19Was it a long time ago, a decimal point invention?
03:23The dates of John Napier were 1550 to 1617.
03:28Was it John Napier who invented logarithms?
03:30He did indeed invent the logarithms.
03:32The cock is not.
03:33You're right.
03:34It's a cockerel.
03:35It's a rooster.
03:36He was an extraordinary man, John Napier.
03:38He wore black, and a lot of his neighbours thought that he was somehow in league with the devil.
03:42And he had this jet black cock as his constant companion.
03:46And when he became obvious...
03:48Did he do that purely for double entendre?
03:50No.
03:52Have you seen my massive black cock?
03:55Etc.
03:56Never a cock on that cock.
03:57A hit at dinner parties in Edinburgh.
03:59And only the Laird of Murcheston or something.
04:01He was indeed.
04:02Well, I think they'll definitely give you five points for knowing that John...
04:05Well, he invented logs, which simply, when you're at school, you know that two and two equals four.
04:09Yeah.
04:09Okay?
04:10Well, you do logs invented by John Napier.
04:12Two and two equals three point nine nine nine nine nine nine nine nine recurring.
04:18Yes.
04:18How clever is that?
04:19Yes.
04:19But you're right.
04:20He was also Baron Murchison.
04:21There were some thefts, and he was almost certain it was one of his servants.
04:24And he wanted to trap the servants.
04:27Now, we're talking late 16th, early 17th century, so they were quite gullible, perhaps.
04:33And what he told them was that his rooster, his cock, could tell which one of his servants had stolen
04:40from him.
04:41Sorry, quite gullible.
04:42Yeah.
04:43Not right.
04:45He put the cockerel in a darkened room.
04:48See?
04:49And the servants had to go in, and each one had to stroke it like that.
04:53And he told them that when it was stroked, it could tell which one had thieving fingers.
04:59So they all had to go in and stroke it.
05:01So all the servants did this.
05:03What they didn't know was, in this darkened room, he had covered his cockerel in soot.
05:08So all the ones who were completely innocent thought, I don't mind, I'll stroke it.
05:11I'm prepared for having to.
05:12But the one who had stolen thought, I'm just going to pretend I've stroked it.
05:16So he was the only one with clean hands.
05:19Wow.
05:20That is quite clever, isn't it?
05:21A cunning plan.
05:21It is genuinely a cunning plan.
05:23Do you think the Metropolitan Police could use this?
05:27He also invented, supposedly, the machine gun.
05:30He's an extraordinary man.
05:31He liked a bit of rough as well.
05:32No, but she isn't.
05:33No.
05:35Piccadilly, what's the connection with...?
05:37Piccadillo is the old name for a rough, isn't it?
05:39They used to manufacture them with a piccadilly.
05:41Did I say that too quickly?
05:42Isn't it good?
05:42Isn't it good?
05:44And a piccadillo is a cross between a pig and an armadillo.
05:47It tastes like shit and the crackling is fantastic.
05:51Very nice.
05:53Very nice indeed.
05:54Rory, while we're on you, as it were, thick, fat, coarse and lazy.
05:58I'm going now.
05:59No.
06:00Take that, coarse and lazy.
06:01What's the difference between a chavin and a chavender?
06:05It's probably something to do with chav.
06:07Chavin?
06:07Is chavin a sort of portmanteau word for a chav who's actually called Kevin?
06:13Oh, dear, oh, dear, oh, dear.
06:17Oh, no!
06:18I'm afraid you've fallen into a slight chav, but no, no, it's not that.
06:21A chavender, I'm now frightened by the fore...
06:24I forgot about the forefoot thing.
06:25And a chavender, I was going to say, was that episode of EastEnders,
06:29when they all dress in sort of brown Burberry.
06:31That's called the chavenders.
06:33Yes, the chavenders.
06:33But I'm not going to say that now, in case I'm going to...
06:35Ooh!
06:40The chavender is a fish, isn't it?
06:42It's awfully good.
06:43It's a roach or a chub, one of those common freshwater fish.
06:45Very good.
06:45This is a marvellous work.
06:46It's a chub.
06:47And so is a chavin.
06:48In fact, there's no difference.
06:49It's another word for it, as well.
06:51They're all types of carp, hence coarse and fat.
06:55Because it's coarse as in coarse fishing.
06:57They are chubs.
06:58We get our word chubby from them.
07:00We do, that's where the word chubby, though.
07:02No-one oddly enough knows where the word chub itself comes from.
07:05Why are they called coarse fishing?
07:06Is it the course of the water?
07:08No, coarse with an A, dear.
07:10People can spell things wrong, can't they?
07:11Well, I'm teasing you.
07:12On my watch!
07:16Can you tell if I'm spelling things wrong when I say them?
07:20There was a character Smith could.
07:22Smith, who spelt his name with a silent P, could tell when people said Smith without pronouncing
07:26the silent P, even though it was a silent P.
07:31He's one of Peter Woodhouse's very first fictional characters.
07:34Oh, right.
07:34But while we are reflecting on God's little chubsters, Jimmy, how many burglaries are committed
07:41in the UK by koalas every day?
07:46Every day?
07:47Yeah.
07:53Well, I'm guessing it's quite a low figure.
07:56Now, are we talking breaking and entering, or planning to deprive of property on a continual
08:02basis because they're different charges?
08:04Yup.
08:05The thing about koalas is, they are the most law-abiding of all the bears.
08:11Of course, they're not bears, eh?
08:13Order!
08:14Order!
08:15Order!
08:16Order!
08:17They're not bears.
08:21They've got a very long intestine.
08:22They sleep for 22 hours a day.
08:24I'll tell you what, though.
08:25All the indigenous mammals in Australasia are marsupials.
08:30Uh, are therefore not mammals?
08:32No.
08:34Yes.
08:35This is fantastic.
08:36Do you know that?
08:37They're cats!
08:39They're cats!
08:40They're cats, all of them!
08:41I think they're...
08:42Try to say something clever.
08:43Sorry, back to the knob gags.
08:47Well, no.
08:47No, no.
08:48Fair point.
08:48The things that are almost like furry, if you mean, but aren't...
08:51Well, if I said almost like furry, I would have sounded like Alan.
08:54There'd be no point for that.
08:55I was trying to be all clever.
08:56Sorry.
08:56That koala, it looks like he's waiting for the fire brigade.
09:00Look at his paws, though.
09:01I was going to say, what's your favourite bit of the koala?
09:04The paws are gorgeous, aren't they?
09:05Do you like the little hand?
09:06I like the cock.
09:07Oh, stop.
09:09I told you.
09:10Hey, fluffy ears, got a little hard-nosey bit.
09:13I want you, though, to concentrate on the paws.
09:15I like the lich toasted.
09:16Concentrate.
09:19Yes, give me.
09:20Fingerprints, because koala fingerprints are indistinguishable from human fingerprints.
09:23Fingerprints is right, Jimmy.
09:28Well, let's have a look.
09:29Let's see some human prints, some koala prints, and maybe some chimpanzee prints.
09:34Which is which, would you say?
09:36Human print is on the left.
09:38No, it's not.
09:40It's in the middle.
09:41So, was that human in the middle?
09:42Yes.
09:43Right, and chimpanzee and...?
09:45Oh, chimpanzee's on the right, and that one over there, that's a koala.
09:48I'm mistaken.
09:48Oh, I wonder if you're right.
09:50No, it's a human on the left and a koala in the middle, and a chimpanzee on the right.
09:54And even under a scanning electron microscope, it's incredibly hard to see any difference
09:58between a koala print and a human print.
10:00And a chimpanzee is very closely related.
10:01That's extraordinary, because the koala evolved in isolation in Australasia.
10:06It's called convergent evolution, where things that are evolving completely separately come up with similar solutions.
10:12Or they were all made by God.
10:14Or they were all made by God.
10:17Do you know the word, incidentally?
10:19Do you know, oh look, I'm going through chavs, and I've got all kinds of interesting stuff about chavs.
10:23I could tell you something interesting about chavs.
10:24Go on, tell me where the word comes from.
10:25When I first read the word in the tabloids, I hadn't heard it out loud yet, and I thought it
10:30was pronounced sha-v.
10:31Oh, lovely.
10:33That's so unshavvy, isn't it, a sha-v.
10:35How boss is that?
10:36These sha-vs, I must meet them, they say I love them.
10:40So anyway, koalas have fingerprints that are almost identical to human beings.
10:44And this was discovered by a Polish man called Henneberg, who is an anthropologist and paleopathologist.
10:50But also a dermatoglyphic expert.
10:53And the word dermatoglyphics means the study of fingerprints.
10:56Yeah, of course it does.
10:57And I'll give you ten points, if you can tell me what's unusual about this word.
11:00It shares particular property with any one other word in the English language.
11:03Does it have all the letters of the word dermatoglyphic in it?
11:10Actually, the only other word that shares this property is the word uncopyrightable.
11:16Is it the vowels in the right order?
11:18No, they're the longest words in the English language, 15 letters.
11:20Without e in it?
11:21With no repetition of a letter.
11:22Ah.
11:23All the letters are different.
11:25That's simple as that.
11:26My favourite word, the longest palindrome in human languages.
11:29It's the Finnish word, saipuiki kaupias.
11:33But the meaning is a travelling salesman who sells caustic soda to the soap industry.
11:41Excellent.
11:42Now, what's the commonest metal in the human body?
11:47Ooh, that's a very good question.
11:49Iron.
11:49Iron?
11:51Oh, dear.
11:52Oh, dear, no, no.
11:54I'm gonna...
11:55I think it's mercury.
11:56Oh, dear.
11:58Oh, dear, oh, dear, oh, dear, oh, dear, oh, dear.
12:02I think it must be calcium.
12:03Oh, no!
12:03He's got it!
12:04He's got it!
12:05He's got it as it was calcium!
12:07Absolutely right!
12:08100 pounds.
12:09Right.
12:16Because the bones are mainly calcium phosphate crystals, aren't they?
12:19Yes.
12:19Yeah.
12:19Yeah.
12:23Yeah.
12:26Wood.
12:29Calcium atomic number 20 last year I learned all the atomic numbers of all the elements
12:34good because I was having my son to revise and I've actually tried to forget them as
12:39much as I can since then because it's just been so amazing to know them all selenium
12:4333 I have no idea I know it's close to arsenic because I saw it 34 film evolution 34 selenium
12:49is 34 arsenic 33 very good really put railings around you and have children because calcium
13:00phosphate is the main constituent of bones indeed calcium is is as a metal is almost
13:05never found in nature for us is of course I think 15 yeah let's move aside from the slide
13:11it's not really an autistic it's atomic number wheelies now outside pubs ago selenium 32
13:28calcium comes from that in calcs isn't it meaning a stone yeah from which we get calculus and
13:33calculation and recalcitrant words there you are it was discovered in 1808 by some I think
13:40it actually comes from calc meaning a heel not calc meaning it's kicking back you're right
13:47you should have points that it is indeed from a heel you're quite right this is a team game
13:50isn't it I'm on his team this is my teammate here we're killing men later on when we go out
14:06people
14:07will talk to us you can have some points so if you can tell me how much customer you think
14:14there
14:15is in the average human body and weight a pound and yeah it's done more than twice that it's about
14:20a
14:20kilogram 98% liquid aren't we we're about 70% liquid oh yeah I'll come back to you with a
14:26percentage if
14:26you really want one I've just said 70 I'm fine thanks something's 98% liquid I know it is there's
14:34a cucumber is it to see
14:39a couple of bikes in it in a shop the sea is only 4% water
14:50got away with it here to all of the fish and the whales and everything out of the sea yeah
15:01how far
15:06you've reminded me of my favorite Stephen Wright joke imagine how deep the ocean would be if there
15:10weren't sponges very good so there we are though non metals are more abundant in nature metals make
15:19up almost 75% of the periodic table soft silvery calcium is one of them well there we are now
15:25listen
15:25we're going to the house of commons who was Britain's first prime minister team panel friends
15:30walpole walpole oh no name on you no lord snooty
15:42pit oh you meant the younger yes yes you meant the younger yes pit the elder was a tree wasn't
15:49he
15:52was it some sort of um king that proclaimed himself the prime minister before he handed over power no he
15:57was a politician it was in the last century I was a hundred years ago almost exactly that he became
16:02israeli a hundred years ago well never mind no um 100 years ago would be 1905 wouldn't it
16:09this show famous people who know stuff no he was a bit later 1905 to 1908
16:18campbell bannerman well done thank you absolutely henry campbell bannerman
16:25he's not perhaps the best known of our prime ministers but he was one of triplets as well
16:31he was actually a very good player he'd be introduced old age pensions he fought for the
16:35poor he was the first prime minister what were they called they were called first lord of the
16:40treasury before that he was the first one to be called prime minister first lord of the treasury
16:44yeah they're still first lords of the treasury if they're prime minister but uh prime minister
16:47and first lord of the treasury now before they were simply they used the word prime minister
16:51sometimes as an insult but they were never called prime minister until 1905. what was ethelred the
16:57unready he was a king his last words henry campbell bannerman were this is not the end of me
17:08the term prime minister was first officially used in 1905 just five days after the campbell bannerman
17:14became one and sir robert walpole generally recognized as the first de facto prime minister
17:18never used it now the round where our guests are encouraged to display their lack of common knowledge
17:24it's general ignorance so fingers on the buzzers please if you keep so kind what's another name
17:29for the common cormorant yes robert sea crow oh very good it is that's the right answer
17:36yeah yeah the latin name is phalacra core are you going to say can i just give the latin name
17:40i'm just going to say shag shag oh no
17:47yes there is a poem by christopher ishawood which goes the common cormorant or shag or shag lays its eggs
17:53in a paper bag yeah the cormorant is the phalacra corex carbo shag is phalacra corex aristotelis
18:00it doesn't have the white face and the cat this is brilliant is it i mean this is everything i've
18:04got
18:14called tosser by other people do you remember anything you said no not a word
18:21he said something about calcium and there's a tree with a funny name koalas invented rice
18:31the reason the secret is the actual word cormorant comes from corvus marinas which is the latin for
18:36secret oh swatty yeah because in the end you are a lot less irritating than bill oddy on it
18:44well it's funny to say bill oddy because bill oddy and i decide we should do a bird watching program
18:48in which bill plays the expert and i play the sort of the keen ignorant person and i was going
18:54to call the
18:54um program panora biarmicae which is the latin name for bearded tits
18:59oh that was good very good very good probably about six blokes of oxford have gone
19:04huh
19:12the phalacrocorax graculus would be it's the crested cormorant isn't it because the graculus is a
19:18jackdor no a jackdor is um corvus monedula yes it's another word
19:24is the actual latin name that's a latin name for a jackdor was great okay let's not fall out
19:31over this steven no no it's what the no no i'm saying real latin no no you might be interested
19:38no no no no no no people actually call bird stings before they want
19:48oh dear oh dear oh dear
19:57Sorry about that. I'm so sorry.
19:59It's all right.
20:01It's a portal into the underworld here.
20:04It's ridiculous.
20:06There is a species of cornbread that can't fly. Do you know what that is?
20:10The flightless cornbread.
20:11Sorry, I missed something. Can you go over there again?
20:17You know how the show is called Quite Interesting?
20:22Yeah.
20:23I think we veered off.
20:25Anyway, I'm impressed with Rory and I think everyone else is too.
20:30I've got a meaning, Rory, that you have pulled.
20:42All it takes is a cute mind.
20:45So, the common cormorant is not a shag nor does it lay its eggs inside a paper bag.
20:50The two are related but definitely not the same species.
20:52The shag gets its name from the tuft of feathers that it has on its shaggy head.
20:56Now, next question. How many cardigans does the queen have?
21:03Yes.
21:04She's got a cardigan bay. That's hers.
21:07She's got a couple of bits of knitwear and then she's got the, aren't there, er, dogs?
21:11Ah, that's very, very, very good. There are, the corgis are divided.
21:15There are two breeds of corgi, aren't there? There's the cardigan corgi and...
21:18She needs her roots doing that.
21:20There's the, er...
21:22What if I say the answer in a different language do I get more points?
21:26Is it...
21:27Ocho!
21:29Ocho!
21:29Ocho carigane se le quino hava horny!
21:34Oh...
21:35Ocho me no capara vacata oberinga!
21:38Did you get extra points for making up a language?
21:40Yeah, probably.
21:42Do you know Jimmy Tarnbuck?
21:43He was doing one of those Royal Command performances
21:45and as he was going off he looked up into the roll box and said,
21:47oh, that reminds me, I must buy a stamp.
21:51Quite a good line.
21:52Um, yes, you're right, there is a cardigan corgi, she has many corgis,
21:57but all her corgis are not cardigans.
21:59They are actually Pembroke.
22:01Ah, there you are.
22:02Hardy Amis, when he was first told he was going to be designing frocks for the Queen,
22:06was invited to lunch at Buckingham Palace and was, er, rather startlesy,
22:09he was in fact the only guest.
22:11And, er, footman came in with a big glass with, with breadsticks in it,
22:15you know, those grissinis.
22:16And, er, the Queen leant forward and took five of them out and put them on her side plate.
22:20So he did exactly the same, thinking, I've got to do exactly the same,
22:23so he took out five of these breadsticks.
22:25And then throughout the, um, she just sort of nippled on one thing.
22:28And, er, there was, you know, about sort of that much of it had gone by the end of the
22:31meal.
22:32Then a footman came in with four corgis and she gave one to each corgi.
22:36And she turned to Hardy Amis and said,
22:37So, Mr. Amis, what are you going to do with yours?
22:43Despite having a Welsh name,
22:45Pembroke corgis are in fact of Nordic extraction
22:47and related to the Lunderhund, er, a puffin hunting dog.
22:52Puffin? Fratacula Arctica?
22:54Oh, er, you are just beginning to try my patience now.
23:04Oh, my God.
23:05Rory, shut the f*** up, yes.
23:09It's time for the quickfire, isn't it?
23:12No, here we go, next, next, generally good question.
23:14Why does the House of Lords smell faintly of urine?
23:18There used to be a public telephone box.
23:21No, that isn't the reason.
23:23Is it because they've got one of those plug-in, Glade things?
23:27It's taken the edge right off.
23:30No, it's because there used to be more hereditary piers,
23:32and hereditary piers, what do they usually wear?
23:34What's the sort of jacket going to be?
23:36Tweed.
23:36Tweed, tweed.
23:37Yeah.
23:38Tweed, as we all know, is made with urine.
23:39Yes.
23:40What?
23:41It's the answer, it's the answer, yes.
23:42Is it?
23:43Yes, it is.
23:43Yes.
23:44Yeah, Rory, I told you.
23:45Yeah.
23:47Because, you see, the landed gentry...
23:48Where have you been buying your tweed?
23:50No.
23:51We're talking about the landed gentry here.
23:52They have always gone for tweed because of its strength,
23:56and all the great estates have their own patterns,
23:58their own sort of plaids,
24:00and it was fixed using stale urine,
24:02particular colour, whatever the colour would be.
24:04The trouble is, when it rains, when it's slightly damp,
24:06this whole odour of urine tends to come off.
24:08And so, of course, the removal of most of the hereditaries from the house,
24:12and the introduction of chemical mordants,
24:14has meant that the piquant aroma of eau de seigneur has,
24:17more or less, now disappeared from the house.
24:19The dark question is, where did Mr Chicken live?
24:21The other side of the road?
24:24Very good.
24:25He didn't live in Kentucky next to Samuel Sander.
24:28Oh, dear.
24:31I'm afraid that we were there before you.
24:33No, it is a very famous address that we've sort of,
24:35not exactly discussed, but tangentially.
24:37House of Commons.
24:38House of Lords.
24:40Number one, London.
24:40Downing Street, who said that?
24:4110 Downing Street.
24:4110 Downing Street.
24:42He was the last private resident of 10 Downing Street.
24:45Oh.
24:45It was Robert Walpole who took it over,
24:47and King George wanted to give it to Walpole,
24:50and Walpole said,
24:50no, it must be for all lords of the treasury to come after me.
24:53I mustn't own it myself.
24:55It's actually two houses.
24:56It's a rather ordinary terraced house from the front.
24:58The grander mansion is at the back,
25:00backing onto Horse Guards Parade.
25:01Isn't it the only door in London that only opens from the inside?
25:05My door opens from the inside.
25:07It opens from the outside as well, isn't it?
25:10If you're on the outside and want to get in,
25:11you can get in, can't you?
25:12It's a house, yes.
25:13Ah.
25:14Not there.
25:15Not there, you can't get in.
25:16Someone has to open it.
25:17Yeah.
25:17Someone has to be inside to let you in.
25:19You can't.
25:19Would you actually get the key and push yourself in?
25:21So when they've all been out,
25:22and they want to get back in there?
25:22There's always someone in there.
25:23There's always someone in there.
25:25Oh, why did you sing that?
25:28That was a little bit scary.
25:31There's always someone in there.
25:34I wanted to frighten you.
25:36And I think...
25:37Why have I?
25:38I think someone might be under the desk.
25:40Now I am.
25:42So, someone's employed to open the door.
25:44Yes.
25:44It's got a door loop.
25:45That's a rubbish job, isn't it?
25:46Well, I'm sure they have other duties.
25:48Closing it again.
25:49Yeah.
25:50For example.
25:52Taking the coat hanger out of Cherry's mouth.
25:54I thought she was out.
25:55Yes.
25:58Excellent.
25:59Excellent.
26:01Sadly, nothing else is known of Mr Chicken.
26:03He was a philatelist, and he worked in a bank.
26:06And he used to sail.
26:08That's right.
26:09He also has three facts.
26:10I should get some points for those.
26:12Little known facts, but...
26:14I think he also played the...
26:15He played the tenor banjo.
26:16Yeah.
26:17Did he?
26:17He had 11 knuckles.
26:20Yeah.
26:20Another 80.
26:21Actually, a chicken.
26:24So, the most biographed man in the 18th century.
26:28Mr Ralph Waldo Peterson Arnold Chicken, the third.
26:32We salute you for giving us ten Downing Street.
26:35And that's about it for us chickens.
26:37And so, let's see what's in my little nest box now.
26:40In last place, it's Jimmy with minus 12.
26:45Well played, Jimmy.
26:46Well done.
26:48Fine.
26:49Third is Alan with minus nine.
26:55And for all in his self-deprecation, in a very good second place with naught, Thraud Lodge.
27:06But our runniest away winner ever, Rory McGrath, with 88 points.
27:15Two fat ladies.
27:18There you are.
27:21Well, that's just about everything from QI.
27:24Thank you to Alan, Sean, Jimmy and Rory for being very game foul indeed.
27:27And I leave you with this piece of uncommon knowledge about calcium from Jack Handy.
27:32Most people don't realize that large pieces of coral, which have been painted brown and attached to the skull by
27:40common wood screws, can make a child look like a deer.
27:44Good night.
27:45Good night.
27:45Good night.
27:45Good night.
