Review: QI at the University of Kent, Canterbury

It would be easy to assume that attending popular panel show QI without Stephen Fry is a little like going to watch U2 only to be told Bono was going to sit this one out because he's a bit busy somewhere else. Probably saving the lives of some poor unfortunates, no doubt. But such an analogy would be far too unkind. Especially when a little bit of history was made on Monday night.
