The episode has been well advertised on the Beeb site, but significantly missing from the advertising is the airdate.

The BBC are doing a Shakespeare season later this year, apparently it ties in with the Olympics in some way. Not sure exactly what the dates are, but the Shakespeare QI episode will be broadcast as part of that.

Thanks, Moosh. I take it that, for all intents and purposes, Series I is over with then, yes? Hard to tell, mind you, as the series have been of variable length--12 episodes, 13, 18. It'd be nice if the series just kept getting longer and longer, quite frankly. QI is absolutely addictive and we need our fix.

Series I is over, with the possible exception of the Idleness episode, which wasn't broadcast when it was supposed to be because of all that stuff with Clarkson. We're told it will be broadcast at some point, but no one seems to know when.

There's going to be an hour-long episode on BBC2 on Good Friday, perhaps this is it

According to the BBC schedule that's going to be I-Spy, episode 1 of the I series.
