  • We ran it on QI a few years ago, which was, there's no such thing as a fish.

  • You didn't even know 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 the pilot episode of No Such Thing as a Fish, coming to you from the QI offices in Covert Garden.

  • My name is Dan, I'm sitting with three other QILs, James, Andy, and Anna,

  • and each week we're going to get around this microphone and share our favorite facts from the last seven days.

  • So in no particular order, here are the best things we found out this week.

  • Okay, let's start with fact number one that comes from you, James.

  • I went this weekend to the Collider Exhibition,

  • the Large Hadron Collider Exhibition at the Science Museum, which was pretty cool.

  • And I got a fact there, the Large Hadron Collider was almost turned off.

  • I think it was turned off for a short amount of time, for what reason?

  • What do you think?

  • Because the rewiring needed maintenance.

  • Maintenance, yeah.

  • It is a lot more lo-fi than that.

  • Apparently they found a piece of baguette in the machinery,

  • and it made the temperature go up by seven degrees and they had to turn the whole thing off before they found the baguette.

  • If you work with a French, this will happen.
