Inspired by the smash hit comedy quiz game QI, this is a comprehensive catalogue of all the misconceptions, mistakes and misunderstandings in common knowledge that will make you wonder why anyone bothers going to school. Featuring extra cartoons, hilarious extracts from the show and fifty new things you didn’t know, including: No-one has ever slid down a banister; there are 613 commandments in the Bible; vipers, cobras and rattlesnakes are no poisonous; newborn babies are indifferent to their mothers; the Swiss Family were not called Robinson; the unluckiest date is Monday 27th; you have no muscles in your fingers...and coffee isn’t made from beans.
