While I don't believe in crop circles being the work of aliens or ley lines or Marks & Spencer marketing schemes or whatever, references to "devils" making patterns in crops apparently reaches back centuries, to the 1400s at least.
Of course, it could be a liberal interpretation of the facts - or outright fabrication - by people who actually believe in crop circles being the work of forces beyond mortal ken, but it does mean that crop circles may - MAY - date back far beyond the seventies.
Well I now know where the elves get their Info...Howstuffworks had an article about a week ago about the moon landing, debunking the exact same statements Stephen brought up with the exacts same photos..almost word for word.
@2pacsrevenge Well, the QI episodes were taped in over the summer, so I daresay, the possibility is that someone may have done that research independently???
I think the main reason more people who aren't from America don't believe in the moon landing because they just don't trust America, tbh. I mean, if another country had done it, I think people would be more receptive, but much of the world has an anti-American sentiment.
great lineup! david has been sorely missed, sean is ALWAYS hysterical beyond reason, and danny can always be relied upon to be pretty darn interesting.
amazing

Stephen Jay Gould studied SNAILS, not fish!!! That's the hoax!!!
It's so sad that not one of these guys recognised this. I knew this was the hoax the very second he mentioned fish.

Anyone see the XL version of this episode? I've been looking for it online, can't find it anywhere, and BBC iPlayer doesn't work here in the US ...
Please, can't someone upload it? NEED MORE QI!!!!

Buzz Aldrin is sick of those conspiracy asses alright. Especially those that think there's a monolith on Phobos.

@LeftyHandedGuns You might be right about that. Funny thing is, if someone else _had_ done it, then Americans would doubt it lol
