My name is Karen and this is my NHS story.

You don't realise how blind you are until you have cataract surgery.

I was referred to a surgical hub and they booked us in for an operation.

It was about three weeks before I was there.

It's very, very quick.

The government is opening more surgical hubs with more than 120 already operating across England,

so the NHS can be there for all of us when we need it.

Hi everyone, welcome to this week's episode of No Such Things of Fish,

where we were joined by the lexicographerful legend. That is Susie Dent. Now for people in the

UK, Susie needs absolutely no introduction. She is a bona fide national treasure. She has been

on my TV in my living room every tea time for as long as I can remember in her position as Chief Wordsmith on Channel 4's countdown, as well, of course, as 8 out of 10 Cats does countdown the comedy show with Jimmy Carr.

She has done so much other stuff.

She's written loads and loads and loads of books.

They're all

fantastic. We have read most of them, I would say, in the QI office. The best thing you can do

really about Susie's books is to just go to your book repository of choice and ask them for

Susie Dent books because every single one of them is an absolute banger and you will find

so many facts in there. She has also written some novels she's written one called guilty by definition

which is out in the bookshops now and there is also another one upcoming called death writ large

which i dare say you will be able to get on pre-order susie is also on tour right now.

She is going around the UK telling people loads of facts and loads of amazing anecdotes
