The Men From QI Come To Exmoor, Friday 16 November

30 October 2007

I’m pleased to announce that John Lloyd and John Mitchinson of TV’s QI are coming down to our village hall to give a talk.

John Lloyd is QI’s producer and he also produced Blackadder, Spitting Image and Not The Nine O’Clock News. John Mitchinson is QI’s Director of Information and he co-wrote the half-million-selling QI Book of General Ignorance and the newly released QI Book Of Animal Ignorance.

The talk takes place at Hannington Hall, in Martinhoe, which is located off the A39 by Woody Bay in North Devon. The date is Friday 16 November. Doors open at 7.30pm and tickets cost £5 each.
