I'm not sure if it's only on in England, but if you watch it, have you learnt anything you didn't know before?

Yes, it's brilliant and I've learned even more useless information. I now know that Innuit could be an insult to someone who wasn't an Innuit. Also that there are only three Innuit words for snow.

Yes I do, and funnily enough I do empathise with Alan Davies.
I have learnt loads of stuff I didn't know before, but because I only have a three second memory I can't remember what it was I already did know and what it was I didn't know, so I can't tell you what I now know that I didn't know that I do know now. :)

I love it. I just wish it was on a bit earlier. I like useless information and QI is full of it. I did already know quite a lot of the things which have been said this current series but I have learnt a few things, I also learnt that there were only 4 Innuit words for snow and 32 words for demonstrative pronouns!
