John Lloyd and Dan Schreiber join Shaun to chat about QI. Plus Shaun is in search of listeners' Earworms. Get involved via #earworms.

John Lloyd & Dan Schreiber join Shaun to chat about No Such thing As The News which will air on 大象传媒 2 this Month. It is a new topical, television version of the hugely successful QI Podcast No Such Thing As A Fish. No Such Thing As The News, promises to be fast, intelligent, hilarious television, completely unlike any other show on air. It's about contemporary events, but it's not 'satire'. It aims to do for the news what QI does for the universe at large: making the apparently dull interesting, the obscure clear and the frightening comprehensible. Like all great ideas, the formula is simple. Four young QI researchers - known by Stephen Fry's affectionate nickname as 'The QI Elves' - tell each other the most interesting things they've discovered in the news that week.
We chat with Dan and producer John Lloyd, the legendary creator of The News Quiz, Spitting Image and Blackadder.

Plus, Shaun is in search of your earworms. What song have you woken with in your head? Get involved via #earworms We'll play one before the 8am news and Matt Everitt joins with the latest Music News.
