Heat 2, 2016
Four more competitors join Russell Davies for the second heat in the 2016 series of the general knowledge quiz.
(2/17)
Russell Davies hosts the second heat in the 2016 series, with competitors from London and Leicester taking their first step towards the title Brain of Britain.
Would you know which city is the setting for Verdi's opera La Traviata? Or who the Republican nominee was, when Barack Obama won his second Presidential election in 2012? Russell has plenty more questions that will put today's four contenders to the test.
The winner will go forward to the series semi-finals after Easter, and there are semi-final places for the top-scoring runners-up of the series too, so there is a chance that more than one competitor today will qualify.
Producer: Paul Bajoria.
