Thank you.
Hello and welcome to another episode of No Such Thing as a Fish,
a weekly podcast coming to you from the QI offices in Hoburn.
My name is Dan Schreiber.
I am sitting here with James Harkin, Anna Tyshinsky, and Andrew Hunter-Murray.
And once again,
we have gathered around the microphones with our four favorite facts from the last seven days.
And in no particular order, here we go.
Starting with fact number one, and that is my fact.
My fact this week is that a lot of the Daniel Day Lewis movie,
My Left Foot, was filmed using his right foot.
What do you say using?
Is that, were you operating the camera with his right foot when he filmed his left foot?
Yes.
And when I say a lot, I also mean some.
So let's just put this into context.
This is a movie about an Irish writer and painter called Christie Brown.
He was born with cerebral palsy, and by the time he was an older kid, he didn't walk,
he couldn't do much, and he only really could operate by moving his left foot,
particularly the big toe on his left foot.
