Alex Fletcher, Digital Spy, 2nd April 2010

The QI elves had to do a hasty bit of backtracking yesterday, after upsetting animal conservationists. Their daily quirky fact, transmitted to their Twitter followers was: 'Whole baby hammerhead sharks (cooked in white wine with peppercorns, garlic and shallots) are delicious'. However, two hours later, after being contacted by activists at the Bite-Back charity, they deleted their original post and replaced it with: 'QI unequivocally condemns the eating of any endangered animal. More info on the hammerhead's plight at Bite-Back'. The organisation had told the panel show question-setters: 'Shame on you for the ref to eating baby hammerhead sharks. It's ill-educated and wrong to promote the extinction of a species.'
