Synopsis

The Third Book of General Ignorance gathers together 180 questions, both new and previously featured on the BBC TV programme's popular 'General Ignorance' round, and show why, when it comes to general knowledge, none of us knows anything at all.

Who invented the sandwich? What was the best thing before sliced bread? Who first ate frogs' legs? Which cat never changes its spots? What did Lady Godiva do? What can you legally do if you come across a Welshman in Chester after sunset?

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

John Lloyd CBE is the creator of BBC Two's QI. He has been behind some of the most successful and best-loved TV programmes of the last three decades including The News Quiz, To the Manor Born, Not the Nine O'Clock News, Blackadder and Spitting Image. He's also written or co-authored many books including The Meaning of Liff with Douglas Adams and The Book of General Ignorance, which has been translated into 30 languages.

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, and now runs Unbound. 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.'

James Harkin is a senior researcher, writer and script-editor for the BBC's QI, and one-fourth of the award-winning podcast No Such Thing As A Fish. He has authored 13 books with the QI Elves and toured sell-out shows across the world, from the London Palladium to the Sydney Opera House. He is a long-suffering fan of the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Andrew Hunter Murray writes for QI and Private Eye magazine, and co-presents No Such Thing As A Fish.
