Heat 4, 2016

Russell Davies hosts heat four in the 2016 season of the venerable general knowledge quiz, with competitors from East Sussex, Wiltshire, London and Leicestershire.

(4/17)
The Queen overtook Queen Victoria as the longest-reigning monarch last year - but who is the longest-reigning King in British history? And when Mandy Rice Davies said 'He would, wouldn't he?' - who was she referring to?

These are just two of the questions Russell Davies puts to the contenders in this week's edition of Brain of Britain, the fourth heat of the 2016 series. At stake is a place in the semi-finals in the spring.

The Brains will also be challenged by a listener on whose questions they have to collaborate - and who'll win a prize if they can't agree on the right answers.

Producer: Paul Bajoria.
