Across six episodes, a distinguished line-up of guests - including Miriam Margolyes, Chris McCausland, Rosie Holt, Carlo Rovelli, Dame Sarah Storey and Alfie Moore - present their chosen additions, sparking conversations that roam from science and history to culture, philosophy and the outright absurd.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAmong the proposed exhibits: a fruit fly that could save your life; a wonder of the ancient world alongside a relic of 1990s nostalgia; the never was, the may be, …and a jar of marmalade. Each donation opens a rich seam of insight and humour, as the panel explore life's oddities with wit, intelligence and a sense of the unexpected.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs ever, the Museum's galleries are filled not with objects you can see, but ideas you won't forget - brought to life by some of the most engaging voices in comedy, science and the arts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eProduction credits\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePresented by John Lloyd\u003cbr\u003eCurated by Anna Ptaszynski\u003cbr\u003eExhibits catalogued by Mike Turner, Mandy Fenton and Lydia Mizon of QI\u003cbr\u003eExecutive Producer: James Robinson\u003cbr\u003eProduced by Sam Holmes and Leying Lee\u003cbr\u003eProduction Co-ordinator: Sarah Nicholls\u003cbr\u003eSound: David Thomas\u003cbr\u003eA BBC Studios production\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFirst broadcast BBC Radio 4, 20 February - 27 March 2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e©2026 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd (P)2026 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin UK","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":67016935375152,"sku":"BD1hdu","price":11.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/1hdu-Square-cover.jpg?v=1781980182","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-1hdu","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
