This is a “not appearing” post (at least I think that’s accurate).

British Comedy Guide have an article (here) re who will be on the upcoming QI series X – and Jimmy’s name is not there. If anything changes – this post will be replaced – but it looks like there are more than enough guests, listed below, for the 12 shows.

It’s not surprising really as several of the most recent series (that he has appeared on) had recording dates of February to May – and, this year, he spent most of that timeframe in Australia.

All of Jimmy’s QI appearances are listed here.

The names that the BCG listed are:

Maisie Adam, Eshaan Akbar, Ella Al-Shamahi, Tom Allen, Angela Barnes, Cally Beaton, Catherine Bohart, Melanie Bracewell, Jo Brand, Gyles Brandreth, Alex Brooker, Desiree Burch, Susan Calman, Daliso Chaponda, Roisin Conaty, Lucy Cooke, Fatiha El-Ghorri, Rhod Gilbert, Howard Goodall, Sheila Hancock, Bella Hull, Elis James, Rosie Jones, Nish Kumar, LaVoix, Joe Lycett, Zoe Lyons, Lewis MacLeod, Jamali Maddix, Stevie Martin, Chris McCausland, Ross Noble, Sara Pascoe, Blank Peng, Lucy Porter, Kiri Pritchard-McLean, Lou Sanders, Daniel Sloss, Ian Smith, Laura Smyth, Holly Walsh, Phil Wang
