Upcoming episodes edit

On qi.com we can see the titles and guests of the remaining episodes for "Series P". The episodes are listed in the order they have originally aired, with the exception of episodes no. 6 (Pictures) and no. 7 (Picnics). I believe all remaining episodes should be added to the episode table in the order they appear, despite the airdates not having been announced yet. In the corresponding URL for each episode we can see the episode numbers (see for example Potpourri: qi.com/shows/qi/series-p/11-potpourri), but taking into consideration this one inconsistency i mentioned earlier, i think the parameters |EpisodeNumber= and |EpisodeNumber2= should be left blank for now. What do you think? - Radiphus (talk) 17:02, 24 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

XLs? edit

Does anyone know about the XLs? They alway came the next day. Since series P eeks later. And now no XLs for weeks, all the lastest shows still missing. Any idea? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.71.64.201 (talk) 08:56, 23 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

On 6 April they tweeted that "the rest of QI XL Series P will be broadcast before too long." Radiphus (talk) 09:03, 23 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Revolutions edit

The Metro - and yes I know it isn't a reliable source - reckons only two episodes were recorded without audiences. Were the last five episodes recorded remotely à la series 59 of Have I Got News for You?--Laun chba ller 17:17, 26 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

I believe that at the end of the "Rubbish" episode, Sandi says over the credits that it was the first of two episodes recorded without an audience, but are back to normal the week after, so "Revolutions" should have an audience. The episodes are not broadcast in the order in which they were recorded. ISD (talk) 09:53, 27 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Inclusion of information related to upcoming T series edit

Latest comment: 2 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I was wondering whether adding information sourced from the QI forums to the Series T section I have created would be appropriate or not. It contains info regarding the episodes in the forthcoming series and their guests. Of course, we cannot act under the assumption all the information is correct - it is a forum after all, so I am unsure - so should we only add details about future episodes if they are provided by more reliable sources (such as the British Comedy Guide), or the guests themselves (see here)? --Phinbart (talk) 17:13, 23 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
