Did you know

• Stephen Fry and Alan Davies were originally cast as the leaders of the "clever" team and the "stupid" team, respectively. Michael Palin was asked to be the host, but he didn't feel he was right for the role. After Fry and Davies settled into their roles, the idea of having two teams was discarded.

• Stephen Fry revealed that there is one panelist who insists on seeing the questions in advance so that he or she can prepare their answers. Fry refused to name the person but did confirm that it was neither Alan Davies nor Rob Brydon.

• Alan Davies has appeared in every episode of QI except one. In the 'D' series in 2006, it was written into his contract that he would be allowed to go to the football if Arsenal got to the Champions League Final. They did, and he went. Arsenal lost 2-1 to Barcelona.
