Faber are delighted to publish Funny You Should Ask… Again from the winning combination of QI and the BBC in October 2021, and with a Foreword by Zoe Ball.
Have you ever wondered
- Whether an aeroplane can fly through a rainbow?
- Why people are so terrified of spiders?
- Why does holding a spoon get rid of the smell of garlic?
- What would happen to the planet if someone blew up the moon?
- Why inflammable means flammable?
- Who was the first ever boy band?
- Which lottery numbers should I chose?
- Who was the original king of the castle and who was the dirty rascal?
Every Wednesday over the last two years, The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show on Radio 2 has hosted The Why Workshop, where two members of the research team from TV’s QI – collectively known as the QI Elves – answer intriguing questions sent in by Zoe’s listeners.
The questions are perceptive, impossible, silly, original or strange, and the answers are illuminating, pithy, instructive and frequently hilarious. Funny You Should Ask… Again is a collection of some of the very best, with bonus questions and facts from the Elves.
From spiders to stinging nettles, bees to boy bands and twins to thermal undies, you’ll wonder why these questions never occurred to you before – but you’ll never forget the answers and will want to tell all your friends.
Funny You Should Ask… Again is a must-read for the incurably curious.
