QI, created and produced by John Lloyd, presented by Stephen Fry and featuring regular panellist Alan Davies was still rolling out its succession of quite interesting, lesser known and generally very funny facts to great effect in this, the fifth series of the show. And this particular series was all about quite interesting information about Exploration, Entertainment, Elephants, Espionage and anything else beginning with the letter E. Guest panellists included Bill Bailey, Rob Brydon, Jimmy Carr, Jo Brand, Sean Lock, Rich Hall, Phill Jupitus, Doon Makichan, Dara O’Briain, Jeremy Clarkson, Vic Reeves, Clive Anderson, Johnny Vegas and David Mitchell. The BBC’s Katie Taylor and Talkbackthames’s Lorraine Heggessey were the executive producers. Research for the sixth series, series F, has already begun and the show has already given birth to a succession of books, DVDs, websites and a club in Oxford.
