Press
Brendan "Mrs Brown" O'Carroll drags this pound-shop QI through to the last episode, with his teams captained by Danny and Fiona O'Carroll and Bill Oddie as this week's expert. The audience titter whenever the word "fact" is used where an expletive could stand. Surely that Question Time job beckons for O'Carroll.
