2004 was the QI B series and Ep5 was initially called Bears, bulbs and bamboo (now listed as just “Bears”). I mention this because some TV listing databases still use the longer name, so this post will be searchable under either variation.

Broadcast, by the BBC, on October 29^th 2004 this was Jimmy Carr’s 2^nd QI appearance.

• Stephen Fry – host
• Alan Davies
• Jimmy Carr
• Bill Bailey
• Jo Brand
