Hello and welcome to another episode of No Such Things A Fish, a weekly podcast coming

to you from the QI offices in Covert Garden.

My name is Dan Schreiber, I am sitting here with Andrew Hunter Murray, James Harkin and

Aniches Zinsky, and once again we have gathered around the microphones with our four favorite

facts from the last seven days and in no particular order here we go, starting with you,

James.

Okay, my fact this week is that on the birthday every beef eater at the Tower of London

gets a gift of a free bottle of beef eater gin.

On their birthday singular, so do they all do they all?

They only hire people born on the 20th of September.

They're like race horses, they all get their new age on the 1st of January.

No, it's every beef eater on that particular person's birthday.

They get one bottle of gin and the beef eater gin brand is nothing to do with the beef

eaters.

But I went to the Tower of London this week and I spoke to my friend Andy the beef eater

and he said that basically the beef eater gin brand, they've got so much out of the beef

eaters over the years, it's the least they can do to get them a bottle of gin every year.

Sorry, sweet.

So did you go to the beef eater pub?

I went to the, it's called the Keys and it's the pub inside the Tower of London, yes,

it had got there.

That's very cool.
