We ran it on QI a few years ago, which was, there's no such thing as a fish.
Yeah, there's no such thing as a fish.
No, seriously, it's in the Oxford Dictionary of Underwater Life.
It says it right there, first paragraph, no such thing as a fish.
Hello, and welcome to another edition of No Such Thing as a Fish, coming to you from the QI offices in Covent Garden.
My name is Dan.
I'm sitting here with the regular three L's, James, Anna and Andy,
and once again, we are going to go over our favorite facts from the last seven days.
Fact number one, this is my fact.
And the fact is that 30 million Chinese people live in caves.
Whoa, really?
Yeah, I've been reading a Paul Theroux book called Writing the Iron Rooster.
I was initially reading it because of a fact I'd read a long time ago.
He was talking about all the great Chinese inventions.
He said, you know, the Chinese invented paper and, you know, gunpowder and wheelbarrows.
And the guy who was telling it to him in the book ended by saying,
we even have wheelbarrows in China that you and the West don't yet know about.
What?
Yeah, that was the most exciting sentence.
Wait a minute, what could this be that's different?
