Book Description

The latest QI Annual, 'H', to accompany the new top-rated BBC1 TV series

About the Author

John Lloyd has a broadcasting background. As a radio producer he devised The News Quiz and To the Manor Born before moving to television to start Not the Nine O'Clock News, Spitting Image, and Blackadder. If pressed, he'd concur with Heraclitus: 'abundance of knowledge does not teach men to be wise.'

John Mitchinson is from the world of books. The original Marketing Director of Waterstone's, he became Managing Director of Cassell, where he published The Beatles, Michael Palin and Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable. He's with Einstein: 'There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.'

5.0 out of 5 stars Hawesome 5 Nov 2010
By Harriet J L Ayles
Format:Hardcover
I'm not usually the greatest fan of fact-books, but this one is actually gorgeous. Funny and sparky and filled with brilliant illustrations. Lovers of the show will enjoy the TV tie-in aspect, but it's got enough info and original artwork to stand alone as an anuual. Ideal Christmas prezzie for small boys too - very useful. It's also quite silly. Okay, very silly. In a good way.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hextraordinarily Habulous (hmm). 8 Nov 2010
By Maz
Format:Hardcover
The perfect mix of the sublime and the ridiculous - this annual is truly the gift that keeps on giving. I can't believe the random and amazing facts beginning with H that I now possess that I didn't an hour ago! It's got brains and beauty - give it to someone you're sharing Christmas with and then steal it straight back after lunch, sniggering, and reading out facts to everyone nearby. I love this annual. And not just for the picture of Mr Fry looking quizzicly at a hedgehog.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Christmas present! 12 Nov 2010
By atosborne
Format:Hardcover
I've actually only watched the TV show sporadically but that isn't a requirement to enjoy this at all. The annual has great cartoons and some very funny quotes from the season - good Christmas gift, and particularly enjoyed more info on hippos than I ever knew existed.

If you watch the program, then you'll enjoy this book, obviously! Even if you're not a regular viewer, you'd appreciate it just for the humour and trivia.

4.0 out of 5 stars a child's delight
Bought as a gift for a 10/11 year old. Very successful as full of appropriate very juvenile humour. Somewhat more trying for any adult though.

2.0 out of 5 stars QI Annual 2011
I am an avid QI fan but somehow feel slightly cheated by this offering. Seems to have a rather 'celebrity mates' gimmicky feel to it rather than the higher quality one expected. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars I have taken a liking to this book, and will purchase it for others.
This annual marks another step towards 'J', the best letter, and it's an excellent step: always interesting, often amusing, and occasionally very embarrassing, as you may find if... Read more
