Heat 12, 2021

Russell Davies welcomes the last four competitors bidding for the title Brain of Britain 2021, in the last of this year's heats.

(12/17)
Which comedy film was set in a fictional town called Rock Ridge? And which writer boasted shortly before his death that he'd just had eighteen straight whiskies? You might be able to answer these questions, but more crucially, can the contestants in the last of the Brain of Britain 2021 heats? A place in the semi-finals is at stake, as competitors from London, Buckinghamshire, Surrey and Cambridgeshire take to the stage.

Russell Davies asks the questions, and there'll also be a chance for a Brain of Britain listener to challenge the contenders with questions specially devised to try and Beat the Brains. The programme was recorded under socially distanced conditions without a studio audience.

Today's competitors are
Nicola Baker, a retired communications manager from North London
Graeme Johnston, a semi-retired accountant from Chackmore in Buckinghamshire
Brenda Mortimer, a retired solicitor from Camberley in Surrey
Liz Walliker, an exam invigilator from Ely in Cambridgeshire.

Assistant Producer: Stephen Garner
