| | Hullo QI! I was watching Jonathan Creek (yeah, sue me :)) and noticed a particular sound, like a short high-pitched shriek. I've noticed it before in British series (the Sherlock episode in Dartmoor, Midsomer Murders etc) but not in other ones. Information technology usually appears when it is nighttime and is supposed to exist scary.
Information technology reminded me a piddling of the Wilhelm scream stock sound and at present I'm very curious as to what information technology is. Could y'all help me? Thanks! | |

| | That'south information technology! All right, now I know what a red play a joke on mating telephone call sounds like.
Is it really that mutual a sound in United kingdom of great britain and northern ireland to incorporate it whenever it's dark and stormy in serial? Thanks, Potato! (Btw, I didn't accept to sign up either. Just click the play button.) Thank you too for the visual, Posital! | |

Is information technology really that mutual a audio in Britain to incorporate it whenever it's dark and stormy in series? | Foxes are common animals in United kingdom of great britain and northern ireland, certainly. Obviously they are hard to count, but the judge is that at that place are around 250,000 adult foxes in the UK. Historically, foxes were primarily rural animals and most city dwellers would rarely come across ane. But farmers tend to consider them as vermin and are allowed to exterminate them, while city dwellers seem happier to have them effectually and the number of foxes living in towns is increasing. And at present that I've heard those fox noises, I know that there's at to the lowest degree one flim-flam which lives somewhere nigh my home. Where we live, the garbage truck comes on Thursdays and so the trash goes out final matter Midweek night - and I've oftentimes heard noises like that coming from outside on Wednesday nights. | |

| | I observe it mildly amusing that the English language don't know what a fox sounds like. Especially when so many have stiff opinions on panthera leo hunting. | |

Only that aside, information technology's true that most townees (of which there are proportionally more and more) wouldn't know, despite the proliferation of urban foxes. | |

Cerise foxes are the nigh abundant wild carnivores though, and are establish throughout Europe and Canada. And also, autonomously from Aegon, anybody who had posted is English. Suze might be able to telephone call herself many things, simply she chose to become a citizen and that makes her as English equally your cricket team is. :-) | |
