Ah. It was something ridiculous like Perseverance, or Renegade or Diplidocus or something.

I'll think about it...

In fact, it's not perseverance, it's Endeavour!

i know that the theme song from from the show included morse (geddit?) code for his first name but nobody picked it until colin dexter (?) revealed the secret.
but i can't remember the answer.

Endeavour is correct ?

Out on the lash now, Ascot racing tomorrow, poker saturday night until 4.00 am, then a few hours work Sunday at double time. Have a good weekend all.

Good luck with your endeavours.

People born sinistral, i.e. left-handed, find it hard to use everyday items, such as scissors and sports equipment - not to mention writing.

But what common task is easier for left-handed people?

tying shoelaces? i am as dextrous as they come but haven't mastered this yet.

im left-handed and cant think of anything off hand- pun not intended other than maybe driving? changing gear etc with their good hand.

We all do it every day.

You can use either hand to do it, or both - but it is easier for lefties, even if they don't realise it!

Even though im shite at it myself, im gonna say typing of all things.

but if im wrong then i dont care, cos we stuffed big andrei and co today.

too bloody right we did!

the answer is typing - if you look at the keyboard, most of the common English letters are on the left-side.

Over to you Ross

Nice easy one (if you saw QI recently)

What creature (with the exception of human) contributes the most methane to our atmosphere?

Wont be on until half 12 tomorrow so if there's general consensus before then feel free to skip ahead!

Termites ?

Didn't see the episode, but surely cows' farts contribute quite a lot to global warming?

Harry gets it.

And yeah, cue alarm bells etc etc.

Cows do produce a lot of methane but if mr Fry is to be believed, cows cannot fart. They burp methane, but still nowhere near that produced by termites.

i'm producing a lot of methane today, that egg curry last night really hit the spot. but i digress
