Heat 2, 2014
Russell Davies asks the questions in the second heat of the ever-popular music quiz.
Russell Davies is in the chair for the second heat in the 2014 series of Britain's most eclectic music quiz, from the Radio Theatre in London. Three more amateur music enthusiasts compete for a place in the series semi-finals, answering questions on music in all its variety.
As well as answering general questions on music, they'll also have to pick from a list of specialist musical topics on which to answer their own individual questions, with no prior knowledge of the choices.
There's something to suit every taste and plenty of musical extracts, both familiar and surprising, to identify.
Producer: Paul Bajoria.
