Russell Davies chairs the nationwide general knowledge quiz.
(11/17)
How often would a hebdomadal meeting take place? And in which town do the football team St Mirren play their home games? Russell Davies puts these and many other general knowledge questions to today's competitors, who come from Leeds, Accrington, Grimsby and York.
Today's winner will become the eleventh person to go through automatically to the semi-finals - but with just two weeks to go before the semi-finals begin, they'll all be trying to score as many points as they can, in the hope of securing one of the sought-after places for the highest-scoring runners-up.
As always, a Brain of Britain listener gets the chance to win a prize by outwitting the contestants with quiz questions of his or her own devising.
Producer: Paul Bajoria.
