A miscellany of fantastical animal theories through the ages, with a special guest.

Animals have always fascinated us, but studying the creatures of the earth is often fraught with fantasy, mistranslation and error.

Join the self-proclaimed nerds of the No Such Thing As A Fish podcast, as they explore animal misunderstandings from the annals of natural history and beyond. With special guest Sally Philips.

A live version of the award-winning podcast from the QI offices, featuring the writers of the hit BBC show. 

No Such Thing As A Fish is one of the UK’s biggest podcasts. Each week, four nerds gather round the microphones with their four favourite facts from the last seven days. The show has toured the UK, Europe, USA and Australia, won multiple awards, and has been downloaded 400 million times – and now it’s coming to the British Library for a one-off Animals special. 

This event accompanies the British Library’s exhibition Animals: Art, Science and Sound.
