Paul Sinha presents more amazing facts that you either didn't know, or were wrong about.

Comedian and quizzer Paul Sinha presents an A-Z of facts, with some help from his virtual audience.

Paul Sinha is an award-winning comedian, a former British Quiz Champion and also, according to the Radio Times, the UK's "funniest fund of forgotten facts". He returns to Radio 4 with a third series of his General Knowledge, recounting the amazing true stories that lie behind fascinating nuggets of information.

This episode is a race against the clock for Paul to present the virtual audience with an A-Z of facts. He gives them a letter, they give him a word, and he either gives them a fact or he just reads out the script he prepared for another word. Starting with A for Aubergine and Alligator, how far can he get before the twenty-eight minutes are up?
