Sean asks a question about body parts.

Sean asks a fastest finger first question.

"Fastest finger first," Sean says, "What part of our body is evolving the quickest...?"

Janet and Thomasina in studio go for the eyes. Which is not right.

"Is it the skin?" asks Pawnie, and Kathleen in Donegal.

"No it is not the skin," Sean says.

Alan suggests the finger or toenails.

It is not the finger or toenails.

"Apparently," Sean adds, "your fingernails and toenails are made out of a hair. You know, it's something like the rhinoceros horn, except it's not a horn because it's made of hair..."

Joe Dee suggests the kidneys.

"Good but not right."

William at the Top of the Hill in the Waterside, suggests the brain.

"Not right."

Danny in Carndonagh rings to ask if it's the teeth.

"It's not the teeth," Sean says.

"Is it," Pawnie says, "your eyebrows, Coyle?"

Which Sean does not find amusing. By the way, according to QI, the part of the human body which is evolving the quickest, which has changed the most over the past 10,000 years is the nose. They are not sure why.

With music from The Beach Boys, Neil Diamond, Joe Dolan, Big Dee Irwin and Little Eva, and more.
