The Professor of Ignorance John Lloyd and his curator Noel Fielding welcome:

* Vic Reeves, the comedian, artist, author and game show host whose credits include Vic Reeves Big Night Out; Randall & Hopkirk (Deceased) and Shooting Stars.

* Dr Tristram Wyatt, Senior Research Associate and Emeritus Fellow at Kellogg College, Oxford whose interests are the evolution of pheromones and animal behaviour.

* Professor Kate Williams has presented BBC Two's Restoration Home and Young Victoria and has commentated on many state occasions for the BBC.

The Museum's Guest Committee appreciate a pale bird that fakes injury to protect its young; a childishly photoshopped picture that fooled Conan Doyle; and a faint smell that may or may not exist, but (if it did) might drive you wild.

Researchers: Mike Turner and Anne Miller of QI

Producers: Richard Turner and James Harkin
