Yes Taff, the main island and because it doesn't help much, it's the the country on that island with the biggest population which is the location for the who what and why.

England is indeed the location.

Danes and Danegeld are indeed not involved.

And its time for bed. That's not a clue, just an indicator as to why I will be very quiet for the next eight hours.

Happy puzzling

"the puritans and the mass emegration to america.....the pilgrims????"

Sadly no klaxons for that direction. Time for another nudge.

Perhaps you are taking this too seriously. It's not life or death!

Is it anything to do with taxation?

I see where you are coming from there, nothing certain in life but death and taxes.

Well thought but nowhere near. It isn't life or death..... particularily if you link it to a bill.

I had to Google that and in my interpretation it seems to mean that everything is anything until it is something.

On this basis your answer is not only potentially correct for this QI but also potentially correct for QI's as yet unborn.

Unfortunately your answer has not fulfilled its potential.

It is not a Plat Filled Ducky Puss.

Also may I say that as a cat person if I ever meet Shrodinger I will punch him on the nose.

Next.
