Why do generations of TV viewers know a suburban cul-de-sac by the name of Pine Oak Court? What was the name of Sir Ernest Shackleton's lost Antarctic vessel, rediscovered in 2022? Who wrote the sonnet that begins 'How do I love thee? Let me count the ways'?

Russell Davies puts these and many other questions to the contenders in Heat Seven of the current series, recorded at the Radio Theatre in London. Today's winner will go through to the semi-final stage of the tournament later in the year and take a step closer, perhaps, to being named Brain of Britain 2022.

Taking part are
Roger Bowen, from Blaenavon in South Wales
Alison Jay, from Suffolk
Ned Pendleton, from North London
Gail Trimble, from Oxford.
