The QI Elves have another Why Workshop

It’s The Why Workshop, and Zoe quizzes the QI Elves with more wonders and ponders, including YOUR questions.

Wake up and embrace the day with Zoe Ball!

It’s The Why Workshop, and Zoe quizzes the QI Elves with more wonders and ponders, including YOUR Commonwealth questions.

We have another Seven Thirty Three, where WE pick the theme and YOU choose the tunes. Today we're celebrating the 50th anniversary of work starting on the Humber Bridge in Kingston upon Hull, and so we play songs to GET OVER something. Basically your break up songs....

Along with Tina Daheley on news, Richie Anderson on travel and Paul Scott on sport, she and the team have the best start to your morning.

There's also a daily Pause For Thought from Alan Sorensen, plus texts, emails and voice notes, as Zoe entertains the nation with fun for the family!
