Nationwide general knowledge quiz chaired by Russell Davies. Bidding for a semi-final place are contenders the West Country and the Home Counties.
(6/17)
Which of Ian Fleming's original James Bond novels is narrated by a female character? And which is the largest lake in Italy? The contestant whose general knowledge is good enough to cope with these questions could be taking another step towards the title of Brain of Britain 2013 - with Russell Davies in the chair.
This week's four contenders come from the West Country and the Home Counties. They're bidding for a semi-final place in this, the sixtieth series of the ever-popular general knowledge contest. As usual, the questions cover every imaginable subject, from literature and music to geography, medicine and science.
There'll also be the customary chance for a Brain of Britain listener to outwit the contestants with some cunning questions of his or her own devising.
Producer: Paul Bajoria.
